Daniel,I understand how you feel, because I also inquired about Beltran, but I don't think Corey did anything wrong. To make a real life analogy, the Padres GM Jed Hoyer made what I thought was a horrible deal with his former team, the Red Sox, for Adrian Gonzalez. Hoyer liked Anthony Rizzo and Casey Kelly a lot more than a lot of other people did, so he made the deal even though some people said he should have held out for MLB guys like Ellsbury and Bard. Corey has a man-crush on Goldschmidt, and that is his prerogative. Roy
Hoyer doesn't look so dumb with how Rizzo is lighting it up this year.
Definitely should be worded differently then. And I would also like to propose a rule to not allow a GM to make trades with his previous team for a reasonable period of time after taking over with his new team. At least one or two months.
