That is absolutely not true, there were plenty of people upset with that trade the second it was announced it was a very mixed reaction from the minute it came out, myself being one that wasn't happy about trading our two top prospects for a 40 year old knuckleballer regardless of how good his last season was.
people were mad because fans, especially on hf, love prospects. everyone is gonna become a 5 star all star. So when they become something we get sad. Don't see any tears for the other guys we've traded (Oakland, Miami, among others). 1 player became elite out of it and we choose to sit and complain about it.
Let's forget we got Donaldson for Lawrie, which is 10x a better steal than Noah for Dickey because at least we got something out of Dickey (and some argue his 2nd half last year was his best ever).
Hindsight is 20/20.
