Andy LaRoche has accepted the Pittsburgh Pirates' offer of extending his current un-guaranteed prospect contract (2010) through 2011 with the league minimum at a guaranteed rate.

The Royals and/or Rockies may be open. I am awaiting confirmation.
Two steps forward, one step back, but at least we are making progress!

Mike PM'ed me with a couple concerns over this year's RS period. I agree with some and disagree with others. It's a good time to start reviewing what needs to be changed in RS and what needs to stay. Issues to be considered are:
1) simplicity
2) similarity to MLB
3) fairness (all the while considering point #2)

Should we establish a trade committee? We haven't had one as of yet and all trades have been fair at time of dealing. However, it may be worthwhile to have a 3-person TC of the most active people just to make sure there is no collusion. Now, I, myself, do this, so if the RC is content with the way things are then they will stay that way. I just through it was worthwhile to bring it up.

After much deliberation, the Braves and Pirates have come to a deal involving their MLB catchers, draft picks, and some young MLB players... I think we have a deal.
McCann/2nd rounder
for
Doumit/Garett Jones/Drew Stubbs/4th rounder
I agree Those are 2010 draft picks BTW.

I received this email from Dan Wood who is interested in the Reds. I told him he has the job as long as he is active...  Colby,
The site is taking a while but it seems to be working now. I am about as active as they come, or so I am told. Out of boredom and unemployment I played a bunch of Yahoo, and Espn leagues and placed 1st, 1st, 2nd (Espn) and 2nd and 3rd (Yahoo). Plus I have two keeper leagues but one is being disbanded this offseason. I placed 3rd (I was an expansion team last year) and 9th (my team was besieged by injuries and everything I touched turned to Crap).
My yahoo ID is Dannyw1986 - here is a link to one of my teams http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/b1/141014/2... I'll take a look at your league over the weekend and get back to you prolly by Sunday. If you have any questions for me feel free to drop me a line.
Thanks
Dan

The following teams must make the amount of money available to small market teams either by allocating players to the RS pool or giving up cash.
Yankees - $11.5m
Mets - $10m
Phillies - $10m
Tigers - $5m
Angels - $2m
Cubs - $0.5m
The following teams have money available to them to either bid on players in the RS pool or restructure contracts.
Marlins - $11m
Padres - $7.5m
Rays - $5m
Rangers - $5m
Athletics - $4m
Nationals - $2.5m
Brewers - $2.5m
Pirates - $1.5m
Twins - $0.5m
Diamondbacks - $0m
All RS bids follow standard FA bidding rules with an exception that all bids must be settled by 11:59pm EST November 20th, 2009. An RS bid cannot be final until 11:59pm EST October 31st, 2009.
The amount the big market teams allocate for a given player is based on their final bid. Small market teams only have the RS money to use on bidding on players in the RS pool.
