Read each row as: James Cook, plus anything in “went with”, was traded for what is in “came back”. Margin is the value gap at that day's prices from the side that received James Cook; positive means that side came out ahead.
Players James Cook has most often been on the opposite side of a deal from. Each page holds those deals: how many were straight one-for-ones, and which side kept having to attach something to close it.
A calculator gives everyone in your league the same number for James Cook. Real trades tell you something different: the price people actually agree to, which package shapes get accepted, and how often the side holding him comes out ahead. That gap is the whole point.
