I thought about it, and I agree. I'm trying to run a realistic franchise so u cancelled the bard trade. Thanks for the insight.

Guess the O's aren't willing to move Arrieta at the moment. I assume it says something like "it's not what we're looking for at the moment" or something like that.

You should try and sweeten your end of the deal then by either upping the talent of what you're offering or taking on a bigger salary dump from the O's if you can find a veteran that they want to get rid of

look im not gunna keep repeating the obvious....i constructed a somewhat fair deal for u last nite......work with that instead of including scrubs that have no value...Why in the world would the O's give up a young top-of-the-rotation starter for a journeyman mop-up reliever?

Arrieta is capable of being moved...u just gotta know what to give up

Re: 2012 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Last night I tried that deal and it wouldn't work. Still said "not what were looking for". You probably know the mets, they have almost no farm system. The only good prospects are the future of the franchise.

play with that deal...substitute evenly matched-potential players or prospects or sweeten the deal somehow

Re: 2012 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

How? We have no farm system, or players to get rid of that have value. If you can tell me another deal that would work, I'd love to try it out. I really appreciate your help with this, thanks.

Try any of your A-rated pitching prospects straight up for Arrieta? To get a face of the franchise, you sometimes have to offer up the same

Re: 2012 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

I don't know bc the only ones I have are wheeler, Harvey and familia. Maybe I'll offer mejia if he's in the game bc I don't remember if he is or not.

My point exactly. Sweetening the deal should do it

If you're playing with the OSFM rosters you should have all of those three guys in there. Try building your offer around one of them to begin with
