Examining what would have happened had the San Francisco Giants not traded Matt Duffy (and Lucius Fox and Michael Santos) to the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for Matt Moore. Moore pitched decently for the Giants down the stretch, and was dominant in his one postseason start, but fell apart in 2017 and was traded for salary relief. The Giants then used that relief to acquire Evan Longoria's contract from the Rays. Matt Duffy never ended up amounting to much in Tampa, although he did have one strong season in 2018. The jury is still out on Fox and Santos, who have yet to make their major league debuts. No matter how it all plays out, things could have been very different had the Giants elected to hold onto Duffy.
