Bingo. They traded Dylan Cease and Eloy Jimenez for a couple years of Quintana who then proceeded to blow chunks. And they trade Gleyber Torres for 3 months of Aroldis Chapman (yes they won a WS I know). 200 million on Heyward was an awful move. They payed 150 million for Lester which turned out alright. 120 million to Darvish which I bet they regret.
TBH the Jays are kinda heading down that same path. The Berrios trade is comparable to the Quintana trade (depending on how he pitches next year), and they gave 150 million to Springer (not sure how this contract will look by 2025). I would prefer if they didn't trade anymore high end prospects.
