Completed Trade

Zach gets Steven Strausburg

Elliot gets Howie Kendrick and 50% of Zach's DD's

...I will assume that no response from anyone in the league means that nobody wants to veto this trade.

Trades

Well, this offseason kinda sucks. So, I will post who is available from my team and what I am looking for, and maybe I will receive an e-mail or 2. My e-mail is zcjett@gmail.com.

I have the following players available:

Delmon Young
Howie Kendrick
Jacoby Ellsbury
Matt Holliday
Victor Martinez

Jonathan Papelbon
Gio Gonzalez
Maybe one of my starters, depending on the offer.

I am looking for prospects really, or an OF.

E-mail me!

Slow Offseason

Its only been a few weeks, but it looking like this offseason is starting off pretty slowly.

Is anyone even reading the blog??
