Since the trade season in ARBA always seems to get off to a fast start and usually 20 trades occur before I even realize people are talking to each other I want to get this out EARLY. I am giving everyone a big heads up that ELY will be putting quite a few players out for trade this year.
The only player I plan on keeping for sure is Jay Bruce
So here is a list of a few players that will be available:
Chris Carpenter Miguel Cabrera Michael Braun Hanley Ramirez AJ Burnett Felix Hernandez
**This has everything to do with my team running short on cash and not being able to fill in the holes around these guys.
Just so everyone understands up front, my minors are full...(I might cut 2-3 at this point).
So while I'm definitely interested in quality minor leaguers and picks, I'm going to have to be selective b/c of numbers.
What I'm looking for:
younger players (difficult to type that when you look the ages of players above) young LHP young 3b young C young 1b young OF
I'm looking young players who will get a card and didn't have a good year...I'm willing to trade a sure thing, for someone who isn't quite there yet.
I will say now (and I don't know who will end up with it) that I would love to have the #1 overall pick....so keep me in mind if you're lucky enough to get that.

**I will let the 2nd half of the season play out a little to get a better picture of value of the players, and then will repost again when I feel comfortable about talking trade that way everyone in the league will know when the trade talks actually begin for me.
