Angels/Cardinals Trade

[Needle Juice]

This isn't about bias at all. Again, I had no problem with the trade in itself. Dave mentioned that no one offered him anything better, and hence he accepted deal. Is it wrong to ask why he is in such a hurry? I am not advicing him to not do this trade and wait 60 days. Had Dave disclose the same reasoning for my deal, I'd have no problem vetoing that deal.

It's the same with your deal. I offered my thoughts on the players. Do you think I want Taylor/Martinez?

Again, I apologize if my tone was over the top. It was not meant as disprect, I just want to understand Dave's thought process and help out a new owner.

I can respect that.  All comments on trades are helpful, they just must be done in a respectful way.

I don't think you want those guys, the comments were made so everyone takes a step back and thinks about what they say and how they say it.  Treating GM's with the tone that was being done will only increase turnover.  You have to give a guy a chance.

I don't see a problem with the trade. Inge and Cordero will score points for vacant slots on the Angels. Lowe is solid, but it wasn't too long ago he was dropped for nothing. I approve of this deal.

 :iatp: I have had both Lowe and Cordero and know the values of them with age involved is hard to get value this deal I see to be fair for both sides

Dave as you can see we are very passionate about this league and want to make sure you understand the rules.  It appears that you do see the lower value of all relievers, so it is safe to say that a team like yours that is heavy on pitching can do this deal.
