I feel ya but I think people are overestimating how many innings Dunning was pencilled in for next year.  100?  Maybe 120?  
 

So 3 years until he’d be a potential horse, assuming he doesn’t get shelled.  
 

I think we traded at peak Dunning value

And at his age, that’s not exactly someone that’s untouchable

The amount of over-valuing of unproven, best case ceiling #3 Dane Dunning in this thread is astounding but not suprising.  

If Dunning is worth 2.5 WAR per season for the Rangers and Lynn is worth 5 WAR in 2021 and walks after this year they still traded away 10 WAR for nothing over 6 years. 

Reynaldo Lopez was worth 2.7 WAR in 2019. This is ridiculous.

"Ceiling" is bullshit, lots of players in MLB history have vastly exceeded their "ceiling". 6 years of Dunning for 1 year of Lynn is stupid. If you can extend Lynn for relatively cheap and get 3 years of ace out of him, then it would be worth it, but he didn't come with an extension, or a guarantee that he'd pitch at his relatively newly discovered ace level.
