We quite literally could have signed a Josh Brown replica on the free agent market and given up nothing.
There's always a flip side. Dj wanted him and the Senators wanted this exact player. We shouldn't really bemoan that our coach specifically asked for the player and we acquired him.
It's the fact that it's a low impact player for a 4th rounder that grinds my gears personally.
Dorion sucks at trading sometimes and it's scary.
Dorion picks up the phone and calls Zito: "I really want Josh Brown and i'm not paying a penny more than a 5th rounder".
Zito: "no. a 4rth."
Dorion: "ok". (imbecile Dung-eating grin draws itself on his face and hangs up)
Zito: looks around the room to his staff "Did that really just happen?"
