Trade SF-CIN: My veto explanation

[CincyRedsFan30]

PJ Bevis is a 10-10-8 pitcher who rates 4 stars.

Brett Evert is a 10-10-4 pitcher who rates 3 stars.

Both are 32 years old. Is there confusion about who was thought to be traded?

There's no confusion. We are asking that if the pitchers are swapped, would a different result ensue in terms of the passage of the deal?

[Fishercat]

Um...MacNeil has a .373-.450-.567 line in AA this year in 150 ABs

I'm not on the TC and I don't follow the deals of other teams, so I'm not in a position to comment beyond what I know. And I meant capable OF, not MI, I mixed up MacNeil and Lewis' positions...although Lewis or another OF should be up with another catcher, no team needs 8 relief pitchers when 2 haven't even pitched so far.

[CincyRedsFan30]

Well, I simply can't buy "fake" ways of doing things. I might have to surrender my GM post. This is beyond my realm. It's just silly.

Mission, don't be silly, we don't follow those stupid salary rules around here. At least we didn't way back when. Did times change when I was gone?

We try to. Sometimes we forget to look at since most teams are in pretty good finacial standing.

how can it be i still have no money?
30 million in salary and I still have 0! Something cant be right.

Um...MacNeil has a .373-.450-.567 line in AA this year in 150 ABs.

Well, if his numbers have went up that much, it's a big change from what they were before this last sim.

And I will say it: small sample size! This is reminding me of the Clemens Cy Young thread now, with lots of negativity and hatred spewed in my direction from numerous individuals.

[missionhockey21]

I think you're overrating Macneil based on his less than stellar AA numbers.

Others have had much more biased(to one side) deals go through, but it seems this situation always happens to me. I have no chance of doing anything with this team with these strange things always happening.

Some on this board are just out to get me, IMO. The replies to various threads on this board indicate that to me and this just confirms it further.

I have had several trades vetoed, everyone has. Saber and Slyder just had a trade vetoed. It happens to everyone.

[mntwinsfan]

the 30 million is moved salary to other gms...

[Saber]

Fishercat on the TC?


Preposterous. I spent years getting him kicked off in the first place.

[Fishercat]

30 million in salary and I still have 0! Something cant be right.

Because you're still at 75 million dollars with a team that is 17th in fan interest with a 21 million deficit from last year?

Heh, I realize it's a small sample size, still not a whole lot smaller than his stats last year, but if we're going to use stats of minor leaguers, may as well use the current ones.

Really? Slyder has also added a lot of talent to the Twins through other trades somehow(that I'm apparently not allowed to do). I've never seen anyone turned down more often when it's even POSSIBLE I could win a deal than myself.

Since it is well documented that certain members on the trade counsel have always hated me, it makes even more sense.

You made only 69 million in revenue last season while spending 90 million. Your market can't handle that much salary. The game doesnt list exact numbers for me to tell you but I do believe that you are close to getting out of the red.

[Fishercat]

I have had several trades vetoed, everyone has.

Let's be fair, I haven't. All these corrupt people on the TC require is a fair amount of bribe money or blackmail (depending on the person), or the trade that is subtly one-sided. You know, like most of Kevin...I mean my brilliant trades. Of course, my recent ones like Barden for Fountain? BRILLANT!

[Fishercat]

BTW, is it still a pre-requisite that the first trade by Dave is always vetoed? You know, unless the waruv clause comes in.
