AA is the smart rule.
Pretty embarrassing the Nationals that they sold multiple Hall of Famers in All Star form in back-to-back deadlines and they'll like barely slip into the top half of farm system rankings.
Agreed on the AA discourse, anything before then is just something to keep an eye on. To your second point, I feel as though we could have done better in the Turner/Max deal, but in those two trades we also added our starting SS, C and 2 of our starting rotation. If those four guys were still in the minors, we'd have maybe the best farm in baseball.
