Two years ago on Rays Index we wrote about the biggest trade of the young Andrew Friedman-era, in which Delmon Young was sent to the Twins for Matt Garza and Jason Bartlett.

The “Two Years” links should be fun this year. Interesting the lack of posts and debate.
Two years later…..the trade is STILL the biggest and best trade AF has made….bet I can give a list of the worst…to include signings!
and is stil the best and the biggest
This is one of those deals we will still talk about 20 years from now, and how big of a step it was towards building a winner. I’ve been very happy with Garza, and beyond satisfied with what we got in Bartlett.
