The White Sox get Lance Lynn from the Rangers for a 4 and the Rangers get Dane Dunning from the White Sox for a 2. What say you Wildwood Dave and Greenweenie?

You just never had someone point it out to you. What is 2 minus 4?
And 34 IP in the majors....gets a 2!!!!!??????????

Wrong again. Subtracting points for players leaving has been brought up numerous times in past years. That is not the purpose here. Now, if you want to keep track of negative points for players leaving teams, have at it.

We've never assigned negative points. If we did, Huntington would be crawling back from China.
Shed corrected my description. It's to rate moves. It's not necessarily roster improvement.

Schtick. Old. Can't ignore the obvious.
No one said anything about assigning negative points to a player. You both know what I'm talking about.
I you give me 4 dollars, that doesn't make me 4 dollars richer if I give you 2 dollars back, which in turn doesn't mean you're now 2 dollars richer.
And why no comment about a salary dump of Lynn?
And why no defense of giving a grade of 2 to a guy with a total of 34 IP in the majors? Is this guy on Shed's fantasy keeper team?

But getting a guy from waivers, whether or not it improves the roster, is not a move. Got it.

No, a better analogu would be if you got $4 and someone else got $6, then they got $2 than you.
