Good lord. Not sure there is much else to say here. My reading of the rule was that an indirect trade would be a series of trades that were connected such that the intent of the overall transaction would be to move an asset from one team to another owned by the same person. Thus it would not appear to cover...

Keith

In a minor deal SB sends BJ Ryan, Mike Cameron and Johnny Damon to BRK for Alex Rodriguez and Ubaldo Jiminez

Sb

In the aftermath of "the trade". SB needs have changed. Looking for a CF and DH

Aaron

There is reference to them being "out" in one of the other posts. Where do I look them up again? Sorry, I know y'all have to remind me every year, but what can I say-more bong than books-was my motto in College. (You think the United Nations monitors this site?? :) A

AS THE "MOST SENIOR" MEMBER OF ARBA I AM RESPONDING TO THE ABOVE POST. I THINK TOM MISSESS THE BOAT WHEN HE THINKS I PROTESTED THE TRADE OVER SOME "INCREDIBLY VALUABLE FTW PICK". I PROTESTED THE TRADE BECAUSE A RULE IS A RULE AND AS STATED BEFORE THE RULE DOES NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT A...

WARREN

Now that the range ratings are out, Jack Wilson and his "1" rating at ss, serve no useful purpose on a rebuilding team. He is available for picks and/or prospects (need of prospects). I certainly don't mind keeping him, it just doesn't make sense to do so.

SO THERE IS NO MISUNDERSTANDING HERE IS THE ACTUAL WORDING FROM THE CONSTITUTION: "Trades may not be made, directly or indirectly, between teams owned by the same manager." AS A FORMER COMMISSIONER I WOULD HAVE RULED THIS TRADE ILLEAGAL. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS COULD BE A "GRA...

WAS TRADES BLANKS, ENRIGHT AND WAS #1 TO BAL FOR SCOTT BAKER.

Eric

In the spirit of the holidays, I'll skip the rant bouncing around in my head after reading the posts about our deal and simply announce the revised version now. Surprise trades J. Sanchez, Bos#2, Nmo#2, and $100K to Houston for R. Nolasco and Hou#3. Okay, that is all. I really don't want to hear...

Eric

Hey, Jonathan. Come over here for a sec. We really like you a lot and want to thank you for doing that press conference a few days ago. I know that you were excited about coming to Surprise and having a shot at a championship. Unfortunately, you're no longer part of our team. I hope that you like Houst...

Doug Frye

KC is in need of relief pitching. Can offer up prospects, Backe, Kendrick, and maybe a done grade in RF by putting up Abreu. I know it is late but need to do something.

Travis

Harmony Grove sends Jim Thome to Kansas City for QUA #3 and 275K. I am sick and tired of Eric getting all the press so I was forced to make this deal.

Aaron

27 starts 3.49era B4...27 yrs old any takers? Looking for a #1 and prospect(s) in return

Aaron

I also have some young unlimited pitchers for those not contending but needing some starts. They are high upside guys so I will not cut or put on C, but I need to clear some roster space. Ross Ohlendorff Ryan Feierabend and Chris Burke (basically every position) Donnie Murphy (IF specialist?) Make an o...
