Guy in my league just offered me Broxton and Tommy Hanson for Desmond Jennings half an hour ago. Talk about some shady trade ethics.
And I agree with the derision of the Reds' GM here. Broxton was already a bit of a boneheaded move considering the likelihood that Broxton's 2012 rebound was a bit of a mirage. That there was no communication between Baker and Chapman involved in moving positions on the team before that deal was about as dumb as they come, though. Jocketty is usually a savvy enough guy, but he made a clear cut mistake here and it will cost the franchise in spending flexibility in the next few years.
