Not sure if this is the one you allude to, but the Braves absolutely fleeced Seattle, in getting Kelenic. Atlanta’s magic (voodoo?) in turning mediocre prospects (Strider, Freid) and washed-up veterans (Morton, Ozuna) into productive players is uncanny. And Kelenic is not in either category, having been as high as #4 overall prospect, and having hit like crazy to start last year. Marco Gonzalez also a canny get for a team lacking SP depth. Evan White, not so much. Why would Seattle do that deal, anyway? Apparently they think that Phillips and Kowar are Freid and Strider). If the AI did this deal in my sim, I would seriously consider voiding it as Commissioner.
