I'm ok with it, if that is the way you think we should go.  Are you asking us to nominate ourselves or others?

I'd definitely support it, might help remove some of the drama. Not sure how you're going to decide on who to be in it though.

I feel trade committees invite disputes. The same people always making trade decisions, who also participate in trades themselves, opens the door for partisan voting.

Other than the draft, there is no other way to improve your team in this league, as there are really no free agents worth rostering.

Having a small group in control of what trade is fair or not, isn't good.

I understand what you are saying.  Although, right now we have a small group in charge of them.  Is there anyway to get more of the GMs active?  I was actually shocked when I checked fantrax to see how many of them log in regularly, because I found that most of the GMs in the league are active, even though we only see 6-10 posting anything on the boards.   :o

I would tend to agree that a larger voting committee is better to avoid any personal issues getting in the way and clouding objectivity.  Also, the more managers we have involved in approving trades, the less likely a vote is to be swayed by the how it would directly impact one of the few voting manager's teams.  Having said that, we seem to have a good group here to where I have not seen this going on. 
Personally, I would vote if asked, I just haven't been voting because I thought only a few managers had been designated to vote. 

thanks,

Everyone should have a say on trades if they like.  Trade Committees are great if members are objective but that's seldom the case. 

Regarding activity, we can just have a league message sent regarding each trade and everyone/anyone can come vote if they like.

  • indiansnation: Giants To Sign Blake Snell March 18th, 2024 at 8:45pm CST • By Anthony Franco 8:45pm: Snell receives a $15MM salary for the upcoming season and has a $17MM signing bonus that will not be paid until 2026, reports Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle (on X). That indicates he’ll be deciding on whether to opt out of a $30MM salary next winter, although the delayed date on the payment of the bonus reduces the team’s short-term commitment.  8:23pm: Blake Snell is in agreement with the Giants on a two-year, $62MM contract that allows him to opt out after the upcoming season, reports Jon Heyman of the New York Post (X link). San Francisco adds the defending NL Cy Young winner to the top of a staff that also includes last year’s runner-up, Logan Webb.  ADVERTISEMENT
