I agree whole heartily about not trading before contraction even though in the 1 league I'm in that's going to contract will only have 1 SS available and at least 2 teams drafting needing a SS (mine happens to be one). Wha's even more dissapponting is, the team that has 4 SS that could start is managerless but won't be one of te 4 teams being contracted which means I'm not going to be able to trade for one either. Going into a season with Melvin Mora as your best prospect at SS is not a comforting idea
