I think once the Moore trade was made, Beane had to make all those trades to recoup picks for a D that is filled with holes.
But I think trading for Moore was a massive mistake. Should have stayed at 26, picked Cooper, and you’d have a young guy on a rookie deal, and you’d still have your 2nd.
Moore is old, not that good, and has a huge contract. Beane is not a good GM, imo.
