Part 4/9:
With the trade deadline looming, the team's recent struggles have led to a period of introspection regarding roster composition and potential needs. Management acknowledges a lack of consistent performance over the past few weeks and realizes that opinions on certain players have shifted as a consequence. However, a core belief in the roster's talent remains intact.

An early move can be beneficial, but a miscalculation could lead to overpaying for underperforming talent.
