From St. Nick:

I've worked this out on a calculator almost 50 times... and I'm nearly positive I have enough cash for it.

Please keep in mind when voting, almost everyone but Bradley coming my way is a salary dump. This is basically a salary dump trade for mission, and since I'm taking on salary, I'm getting to take on a decent piece in all of it, and he's taking on a player who hit well with him 2 seasons ago.

Just keep that in mind when voting. All I ask. thanks.

Sorry I sent this to the wrong person, nature of habit.


Mission and I basically did this deal as salary dump, with me getting a piece in return and not absolute crap for someone who DOES have good ratings still.. he just cannot hit for me for some reason. Very random trade, but there's some reasoning to it.

So much for getting to post my first trade, Prvoie .

It's a pass, Cabrera just can't hit in that park.

[realmofotalk]

pass it. 8.5 mil in cap space is nice, but I'm not sure I'd give up a dirt cheap starting pitcher to get it.
