Franchise GM: Invalid Transactions / Re: Who has made the most improvements this offseason?

« on: November 20, 2009, 06:11:51 PM »

Quote from: Oakland A's GM on November 20, 2009, 01:36:18 PM

Brewers by far in my opinion. Puljols and Beckham.

I don't understand the infatuation with Gordon Beckham. Absolutely a good infielder. Compare with McGehee:
G AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI TB BB SO SB CS OBP SLG AVG
116 355 58 107 20 1 16 66 177 34 67 0 2 .360 .499 .301

Beckham:
103 378 58 102 28 1 14 63 174 41 65 7 4 .347 .460 .270
Pretty much comparable and McGehee fended off Gamels who was supposed to be the Brewers top 2 or 3 prospect. Yes, I'm thrilled to get him a N.Feliz for Beckham and a 2A pitcher

Franchise GM: Completed Trades / Brewers/ChiSox FINALLY strike a deal

« on: November 19, 2009, 08:30:38 PM »

The White Sox send:
P Danks, John, $0.5m (P-2010)
OF Mitchell, Jared, $0.5m (P-n/a)
C Flowers, Tyler, $0.5m (P-n/a)
4-19 CHW (from STL)
to the Brewers for:
OF Ethier, Andre, $14.5m (2010)
2-28 MIL
Very few player I would trade Flowers for. Jay Bruce is one but, believe it or not, Dan won't budge. Andre Ethier is another. Love him as a player and I need OF. I get a 2nd Rd pick to boot.
Brewers was on his way out the door but he should confirm shortly

Franchise GM: FGM Commissioner News & Tid Bits / Re: One-Time EDR Transfer

« on: November 19, 2009, 08:58:21 AM »

I understand and agree. A player like Dayan Viciedo would be eligible?
One question I do have concerning the Entry Draft- Will the pool be strictly those players selected in July 2010 or will minor league player not currently on our rosters be eligible also?

Franchise GM: Completed Transactions / Pierzynski a Dodger

« on: November 18, 2009, 01:14:32 PM »

After over night discussion the ChiSox and Dodgers have agree to the following:
Dodgers get AJ Pierzynski $6.5 (2010) and $3m cash
ChiSox get Angel Salome $0.5m (P-n/a)
Basically a cost cutting deal on the Sox part, besides you can't have too many Catching prospects.
Dodgers to confirm

Hate to lose either player, let alone both but a Tex doesn't come along everyday. I accept this deal
