    Re: 2050 Thread of in-season confab

    I was originally planning to rebuild this year, but the dynamics of other GM's plans combined with the fact I never traded the core of my lineup or Passeau during the deadline last year led me to change my mind.

    But I actually kinda like the way it's turned my team around even as it currently stands.

    Out via trade
    SP Warnke
    MR Fosdick
    MR Thorton
    MR Iniguez
    RF Waner (Probably wouldn't have resigned anyway due to demands)
    LF Brock
    2B Schoendienst

    Lost to Free Agency
    C Schuck
    MR Orlandi

    Gained
    RF Gwynn
    LF Henderson
    CF Hank Aaron
    SP O'Toole
    SP Gomez
    SS Lynch

    CF Palledorous

    So, Brock is replaced by a Gwynn/Henderson platoon until they hopefully develop and both become full time starters
    Waner is replaced by Aaron
    Warnke is replaced by Gomez
    Schoendienst is replaced by Lynch
    Walter Johnson's died off, but is replaced by O'Toole

    Outside of the bullpen, the only loss I haven't really replaced is Schuck. But since Hodges can catch my options are broader than they otherwise might be.

    Seems to be the case since I joined. 3 quarters of the league is selling, maybe a quarter is buying.

    People go in cycles. LA has been a buyer for a long long time. San Diego rebuilt, bought for awhile, and then reloaded. Madsheep and Philly fan rebuilt for awhile before now being contenders again.

    I'm kind of in a tough spot. I've got 2M to spend in FA with three spots to fill. I know I can compete for another title, but only if just about everything goes right.

    That being said, I'm open to discuss trading anyone on my roster.

    I arguably should have rebuilt about 7-8 years ago. I was kept afloat by revenue and Burdette being cheap and almost as dominant as Alexander. Those two made it possible to extend my window.

    Stomach has lost some movement on his pitches...
    Stomach has lost some lower body strength, his duration drops.
    Stomach's control seems to have taken a bump...
