Phillies - Rockies Revised Trade

[papps]

This is a joke.  I want to see another team give up 4 good specs and $33m in salary.  People should be allowed to manage their teams the way they want.  This trade is fair.  Tulo plays 100 games a year if he's lucky.  Vetoing this trade is a disgrace.

i tried to post a link from BLB on a offseason trade the TC vetoed.  it was for chris davis they thought pittsburgh wasnt giving up enough to get davis coming off his 40+ homer season so the TC made pittsburgh unload all his top talent from his milb roster. now he has no milb roster and chris davis.

It is a fair process, very difficult to evaluate.

I do have to say that the Rockies should not pair these two.  Phillips with release $$$ would net a return, especially right after FA when some teams have no other MI options.  Phillips still scores ok.

Trade Tulo for peak value.

"difficult to evaluate" doesnt that imply you dont know who is getting the better end of the deal....so short of conclusion how can anyone veto.  trade would have to be oneside to get a veto...wouldnt it?

im bitter right know and wondering what the "F" in this league stands for but your advice here on what i should do and shouldnt make me feel like i want out.

Sorry bud, just figured I would remind you about cap hits for releasing a player.  I just went through the same thing at the end of last season with Hanley.  Don't forget I approved the deal.

Both Owners know what they are doing IMO.

Taking on 33m in salary is not easy and both Tulo and Phillips are getting older,Apparently Rockies are satisfied with who they got and Phillies do not have players as good as Tulo and Phillips so no harm there IMO.

I would like to request a ruling from the commissioner on this trade.  Whether I agree with his decision or not I will accept the ruling.

[patjossom]

Are we waiting for someone else in the TC to vote? The rule book seems vague on what are waiting for?  Commish to way in? Is shooter awol?

[papps]

Everyone on the TC has voted.  I have sent two messages to shooter47 for review and he has not responded to either message.  I'm not quite sure why.
