Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley recap the busiest trade deadline ever, first examining why it was so frantic and then going division by division to analyze the actions or inaction of every team that made a trade (which was, well, every team).

Audio intro: Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever, "Heard You’re Moving"
Audio outro: Vanessa Peters, "Moving Day"
