Franchise GM: Invalid Transactions / Re: pitching for bats
« on: June 11, 2011, 01:43:53 PM »
Wow, I've never seen a trade so heavily analyzed that is fair on paper. After reading the posts before mine here, I wonder about Peds knee and can he stay healthy? He has been mired in a crap season and its debatable whether he can be even healthy going forward. Grienke is more expensive and I do lose a valuable MI bat. I am torn on what to do in this trade as I hear everyone else saying hitters are more valuable than pitchers. I have not checked up on this no as I did not know. That tells me the scoring system should be more balanced, but that's an argument for another day. Colby picked me for a reason and the team I took over is elite. I did say i would not jump the gun and the other offers besides this one would have done just that. I consider myself a good trader, but when a fair trade gets critiqued in a league where the passion and activity is borderline ridiculous which is awesome lol tells me that I need to think things thru more. I have decided after typing this short novel that I will hang onto Peds for the time being. I hate backing out of an agreed trade and it makes me look like a wussy. However, I want the long term best interest of my team and the league to be above my ego and let this thru.
