Good afternoon y'all,
Is it time for next year already? Even with the imminent arrival of Mark "the Savior of all things good and pure" Prior in the next week or so, I am hopelessly out of the race this year. The sharks have already started to swim around the chum of my team. My FAAB is quickly dwindling to zero so I think it's about time to back up the truck and try to reload for next year. *sigh*
I had such good intentions too. Anyways, anyone on my roster can be had except for MP. Also, an offer would have to be phenomally good for me to part with Benitez. He was the one good thing that came out of this draft for me.
Mainly, I'm looking for major league or major league ready players in return. I have a ton of prospects as it is, but I wouldn't turn down the odd Marte or Floyd if they presented themselves. Actually, I would like to include a couple of them in a deal. While I won't turn down any offer with high priced players, I'm more keen on acquiring cheaper, less costly ones. My thinking is that I could then flip an expensive player in another deal so he would have to have some trade value so someone like Richie Sexson is out.
Well, I'm hoping it's early enough so I can get multiple offers on some guys so I can find out what the market is this year and try to have some semblance of a choice. I'm also not in a big hurry to disband my team so I'm not going to rush into any deal. Anyways, hope to hear from you guys soon. Take it easy y'all. Mahalo
