Transactions are the connective tissue of sports, yet most coverage treats them as a headline that disappears in a day. The context — what was given up, what it became, and what might have happened instead — is scattered across years of articles and spreadsheets.
Front Office explores what happens when a single move becomes a navigable story: a before-and-after roster, a chain of assets, a retrospective grade, and the path from one decision to a championship.
