Is George Pickens for Michael Pittman fair?

In 1 of these deals exactly one side had to attach something extra, split 1 to 0 between the George Pickens side and the Michael Pittman side. That is too close, and too small a sample, to call either player the more valuable.

What they cost today

Everything above is priced on the day each deal happened, which is the only honest way to grade a completed trade. It is not what they cost now. Today George Pickens prices at 4,858 and Michael Pittman at 1,819, so the market currently rates George Pickens about 2.7x the other. A pair can lean one way across its history and price the opposite way now; that gap is the whole reason to check the deal in front of you rather than the deal someone made in 2023.

Read each row as: George Pickens, plus anything in the third column, was traded for Michael Pittman plus anything in the fourth. An em dash means that side sent nobody else. Margin is the value gap at that day’s prices from the side that received George Pickens; positive means that side came out ahead.

The whole-deal margin

Across all 27, the whole-deal value gap runs -19.5% from the side that received George Pickens, so the side ending up with Michael Pittman has generally come out ahead on face value. That measures the entire trade, every piece included, not these two players against each other.

Why this beats a calculator on this exact question

A calculator answers “is George Pickens for Michael Pittman fair” by subtracting one number from another, and it gives every manager in your league the same answer. That tells you nothing about whether the trade closes. What closes it is whether one side has to attach a piece, and which side that usually is. The 27 deals above are the record of what leagues actually agreed to when these two were on the table together.
