Another Quality Starter Available
(Preview)
Although I'd love to keep him, it makes much more sense for Shiner to trade Mark Buehrle off his A contract to a very affordable B2.

SHI-SPR trade
(Preview)
Shiner overreacts to Ryan Roberts' playoff grand slam by sending a King's ransom for him. I wish. But they do send Martin Prado and Jonathan Garcia for him.

Rookies and Free Agents
(Preview)
Preliminary versions of the 2012 Rookie and Free Agent lists have been posted at the site. Please note that there will almost certainly be some minor changes as I typically overlook someone or misclassify a player or two and our more compulsive, er, helpful owners point out my errors. Thanks, -Tom

Many thanks to everyone for keeping things running smoothly. As per usual, all fines were waived for teams that are changing hands this of...
