Really interesting article thanks for posting. Interesting little trade tree points including Dennis' moves and resulting in a World Series win. Love looking retrospectively at a players journey, seeing where it takes them and the final impact it has on teams.



Any hockey fans should check out Steve Dangles videos for Sports.net (Canada/Leafs), they do some really good deep dives tracing every draft pick and considerations that change hands.
