I had missed a few stud specs so I edited my post.

note: we'll take your fascism away and add it to our own so we can become part of the Axis powers.

[browntown653]

Cust is 3rd in the lineup and in AAA?...what?

[Providence A's]

I edited it to reflect the changes I sent in for the next sim...duh

[Kingdom]

Pretty sure you and I need to get together and work out another deal, since you have 2043 outfielders.

[Providence A's]

Well, I think 2043 outfielders is not enough...my plan is to gather up all the good outfielder prospects that way in a few years no one else will have any outfielders and therefore have to forfeit...or play pitchers out there.

In all seriousness, I'm not against moving Johnson and/or Swisher because Barton and Gomez are knocking on the door...you were the only person to even inquire about one of them and they're also cheap so I'm in no hurry. The specs can continue to fill out I suppose.

[Kingdom]

I could settle for running after Stewart even. I'm not even sure what I could move for Swisher at this point, cause I want to nail down things with the cubs before anything else. The black socks failed to get back to me on something.

Even if I banged out a deal with the black socks, I'd make room somewhere for Swisher. Perhaps catcher? He has that grizzled look of an old school C.

[Providence A's]

Stewart is a FA after the season...I'd move him for whatever it would take to pass...I don't care...a 3.0/3.5 spec should do it. He's useful and his ratings are solid...he'd hold up and he's cheap.
