He got Choo for Drew Stubbs and Didi Gregorius.
He got Eugenio Suarez for Alfredo Simon.
Anthony Desclafani for Mat Latos.
Mat Latos for Yonder Alonso and Yasmani Grandal (both PED guys)
he's made a lot of very good moves.
Most people hate him for the moves he never made (because that's all on him, nothing to do with other teams)
It's been over 20 years since they won a playoff series and got swept at home by the giants the last time they went, and swept by phillies two years before that. There W/L's have gotten consistently worse since he's been here.
Even if he's good at making trades (which I would say he's ok at), the object is to get to and win in the postseason. He's utterly failed at that.
