15-3-2 the last 2 weeks! WTF??????? My Team STILL SUCKS.. but just not as bad as the first couple of weeks.
Why arent there more trades in here? One trade all year long? I thought it was a good one for me getting Quentin for Lackey but it blows now!
I don't like trading..every league I play in, people LOVE trading like crazy.
I don't get it.. I draft the players I did for a reason..why would I wanna give em away?
People normally like trading because its fun. Being a GM of a team is more than just drafting. It is also looking for trades that can help both teams. Obviously, in here managers seem to agree with you because no one even bothers to offer trades up or counter proposals.
Yeah I think a total of one trade has been sent to me for approval is 1. Yet there are a million waiver wire moves. I'm a big trade guy and have sent off quite a few trade offers.
To jrg's point, well you must have incredible luck if all your drafts go exactly the way you plan them to. How often are strategies messed up when the guy in front of you snatches up the guy you coveted? You can't always build a perfectly balanced team. Sometimes the players you pick show different skills than what you were accounting for origionally. That's why I trade, either to fine tune or to rob a panicking owner of their slow starting stud.
I dont remember any offers for me. Is my team that bad that there is no one you might be interested in?
Im just happy that I am working my way up a bit and not in the cellar. Of course, that can change in just a week.
Nah I havn't sent you any. I need first baseman help adn pitching help. Which is exactly what you're week at. Outside Verlander anyways. I'm strong in outfield which is your strong point as well so it doesn't really sem like we're very good trade partners.
