Trade 2 (already passed)

Trade 1 (with the cy young pitchers) was just accepted, so the 24 hour cycle has begun.

LOL @ Mike Greenwell again.

Are these rangerup's projected's?  If not, you're doing a great deal of helping him out with your $18MM scouting!

He needs all the help he can get. I should get a tax receipt for helping out the challenged.

But it helps a bunch when you verify them for him (or the other 30 owners in the world)

Trade 2 based on what you say for projections as well as what I see him giving up. It doesn't appear that Rangerup is getting the losing end... In fact he's giving up a defensive SS with some power for a defensive SS with higher splits and he gets 2 more players as a bonus.... As for the other deal Trade 1, I personally wouldn't trade those P's like that but that's just me.

If it passes then majority of the people agree that its a good trade, you did broadcast the trade on the WC so it's not like they didn't know about it.
Normally I don't like people going scoreboard and pointing out someones record but in this case I think Tom's .185 career winning % should be pointed out.
I have a .185 career winning % oh if you're referring to my terrible worst record ever, yah that was a replacement team I jumped into save when I was asked. I don't create multiple names to protect my "image".
