pass, i guess. this kid just loves to give up quality for quantity. inge is gonna start for him and kown is close, so i guess so... mitchell is gonna be a nice ball player though.

mitchell is pretty damn animal, and could be ready in a year... kown is alright i guess, and inge is decent. but still...

i almost don't want to veto it, because potentially vetoing two of minnesota's trades in one day is something that could possibly make him lose interest, and the last thing we need is people dropping when we're still filling out the league.

I'm undecided here... it seems like minnesota doesn't value its prospects much, though.

[nick]

eh, I'm going to pass it. More so because I don't want him to get discouraged and bail than anything. But thinking about it, the money and shit works... so meh.

I am passing. The SP prospect is close and at 7-7-8, he'll be a good starter. Had the prospect been heavy on the hitting talent, I wouldnt of passed but speed is the primary reason why he is so high (not that it isn't valuable, I just would rather have the 4.5 guy who can mash versus who could run.)

I'll pass it... doesn't seem like he values his farm too much... and he has a decent system. He should just wait it out with some of these guys, because Chicago is the beast in that division.
