cshannajr trades F. Rodriquez and summer second prospect pick to Terry 101 for B. Lidge and first summer prospect pick.

Better for cshannajr for this year, maybe better for me long term. We'll see.[/quote]


Confirmed.[/quote]


Hey Bill,
I noticed that the current roster you posted shows that I still own F. Rodriguez. I thought you updated the spreadsheet, but I just want to make sure.

Also, if I still have time, I'd like to drop two more guys to give me 13 picks.

So I drop:
Casey, Sean 1B Bos
Ellis, Mark 2B Oak
[b:78291dcc05]Feliz, Pedro 3B Phi[/b:78291dcc05]
McDonald, John SS Tor
Davis, Rajai OF Oak
[b:78291dcc05]Moyer, Jamie SP Phi[/b:78291dcc05]
Redding, Tim SP Was
Guerrier, Matt RP Min

35 active - 8 cuts + 0 promos = 27 or 13 picks

NOTED,

But I want to be sure you're clear on this,

[b:b5f9778162]YOU CAN [color=red:b5f9778162]NOT[/color:b5f9778162] PROMOTE ONE OF YOUR PROSPECTS AS A DRAFT PICK[/b:b5f9778162].

That is circumventing the drop to 30 rule and I will not allow it. So I want to be sure you do not want to cut any one else to allow for promotions at the start of the season. I ask, because I'm SHOCKED you do not want to use at least Chris Davis and possibly Jay Bruce and Mike Avilles for the 1st season. If you do not make cuts and Promote them now, your next oppurtunity (providing you do not make an unbalanced trade in the middle of season one) will be when we do cuts for the Supplemental draft between seasons 1 and 2.

Got it drops are in and thanks for the correction.

See I do make mistakes :wink:

And with that we are only awaiting Kaviksdad's drops.

[Ninersphan]

All,

It is with some regret that I have to announce that one of our members, Cummings2, will be stepping away from the league for awhile. His reasons are his own and I will not elaborate on them here and ask that you respect his privacy in this matter. To put your minds somewhat at ease, his health is fine.
Fortunately for us, we are not left seeking an alternative to his membership, as has been the case in the past when Cummings2 has needed a break, his good friend Casey is stepping in to run his team for him. Those of you that know her, know she's a great competitor both in assembling her team and managing it. I've added her email to the group so if any of you have trade requests etc, for Casey, you now have her email address in the email of this message I just sent to you all.
I hope you will all make her feel welcome, and wish Cummings2 all the best while he's away.
