LOL

ok, i know its not the fairest trade. But, would you actually veto it?

I usually don't veto any trades unless I think there is some kind of collusion where a team is dumping to another. Even if its unfair, if an owner is that stupid to do so, then thats his problem.

Laugh all you want but Roberts had been money until this week because he has lost a lot of playing time.

His current 3B is Aramais Ramirez, my current SS is Alexei Ramirez.

I really didnt think he would bite, maybe he would try to get another player, but he accepted.

If it was 2 other teams, and this early in the season I wouldnt veto. Especially cause the team giving up Tulo is tied for 1st. The other team is dead last.

tulo is a 1st rounder. roberts was a no namer. that's like saying avila is better than mauer. it's a very lopsided trade no matter how you slice it

You know these people that you are playing with? I guess 3 weeks Sam Fuld for Pujols might've been legit.

Ryan Roberts for Tulo huh. The Avila for Mauer was a bad example too considering Mauer's current status and Avila's pedigree FYI.
