Ed Wade liked to make trades. He just didn't usually like to make good trades or timely trades. Over the coming days and weeks, the Good Phight will analyze Wade's body of work in a variety of ways, including looking to some of his key trades to determine which team got more value from the trade.
But first, the Good Phight presents this chart with Wade's entire body of work in the trade department. Read it, and enjoy re-living the glory of Phillies additions such as Bobby Sismondo, Chad Ogea, Felipe Crespo, and Jeff D'Amico. Read it, and marvel at Ed Wade, the trading man.
