sniff sniff...I smell rapebret day.
Agreed. Bret, just give uskerman your best talent for a bunch of AAAA guys now and save yourself some time and energy.
No no.  You can't ask Bret to decide who his best talent is.  Usker would end up severely disappointed.  Busk has to choose from Bret's roster.  Have you not been paying attention, Cheez?
I assumed since they had swapped proposals, Uskerman had already taken care of that part.

bret shot down my effort to get his best player while we were still in the TC phase.

that KP trade I just made with Tisi was the most effort I put into a deal in quite a while.
Yeah, but we started off close, so it was clear there was a chance we'd make the deal.

Kinda, I was hesitant to part with Lofton. Getting that 3b prospect lessened the pain a bit. And flip a coin between Bunny and Kershner. I was pushing Bunny because he was a rule V pick last year--so it felt like he had less value to me than Kershner. Grace will fit in nicely to the rotation even with his lowish stamina--since my bullpen can carry a game from the 5th-6th inning on.

I'm gonna need to take a little time to refamiliarize myself with my KP roster and see where I need upgrades.  I don't have high hopes for the FA market, but I'll be all up in it.

I hate to admit it publicly, but I have thrown many a some at you.
And maybe you'll get another when mine refresh.

The team won 88 last season, but with two powerhouse teams in-division, I don't feel close to contending.  I have little or nothing in the way of prospects to trade.  It's kind of a tough spot.

TMs decline into FA addiction/dependancy was a quick one.

chap's old team isn't as good as his record would have suggested.  You had more talent than he did and you could easily pass that team up this season.

It's like how I refuse to play golf because I know I'm screwed as soon as I try it.

In KP, I would probably be going in the other direction if it weren't for my bet with robusk.

I failed to extend Washington's contract and he won't talk to me.  I'll need to do fairly well just to catch up to last season's talent level.

I slumped late in KP, but feel I have a real good team. A lot of my offense was manufactured though. I had a fairly low team OPS but was 2nd or 3rd in runs scored. Im trying to protect against the possibility of that being a fluke.
