It was not made to be anonymous.It is craig again. If the yankees made such a deal with the tampa bay devil rays we would be having a different kind of conversation. i punctuated the post by saying that it was not meant to disrespect the owners who made it. Also it is a clear case of the rich getting richer. while each owners need is served the competitive balance of the league as a whole suffers. dave you and i have traded on several occasions and i respect your knowledge of the game. with no protection or system in place you have no choice but to make any deal you can to improve a 55-105 squad. i understand that you just can't sit on your hands
