Yes, my new lead off hitter.

[Providence A's]

The Pittsburgh Yankees?

[Impossibles]

...except the Yankees have pitching

[Providence A's]

OK, the Pittsburgh Rangers except they win...

[Kingdom]

...except the Yankees have pitching

I won 110 games with nearly the same pitching, last season. Uppercut won't be that big of a loss.











I hope.

[Kingdom]

The Pittsburgh Yankees?

If only I wasn't working with a Kansas City payroll. >_>

[Porter]

I like the deal. I get three younger guys to fill out depth for the ML roster and I get back under a 90 million dollar payroll. All 3 can contribute now. I will miss Vanvalkenberg's 40-40 bat.

[missionhockey21]

It doesn't seem that long ago that Vanvalkenberg was Arizona's hot young prospect.

To every season turn...

[Porter]

its been 9 seasons since he was the hot prospect. Weird that its been that long. If he came up younger and didnt get costly injuries. He could have been a 500-500 player.

[Providence A's]

If only I wasn't working with a Kansas City payroll. >_>

Your payroll was $85 mil before this trade and should be about $95 mil after. I think KC's is much lower than that.

[Porter]

Yeah but he only made 82 M in revenue last season. That's his concern.

[Providence A's]

Well, then KC revenue would have been more accurate Their payroll was just under $82 mil. I didn't realize it was that high, but still lower than $95 mil

[Saber]

Why make the trade if you can't afford it?

[Kingdom]

Because this isn't real.
