Trading question.

Is it possible to trade with any of the teams that don't have a GM? And if so how does one go about that?

good question was wondering that myself

We considered it, but the overall consensus is that a system would be too complex and there would be alot of contreversy over what would be a "Better deal" if teams were to bid trade..

what are the chances that the rest of the open teams will fill. if you need owners, i can talk to some guys in my madden league and generate interest. let me know. cause right now the brewers are in deep doo doo, and need some help.

We appreciate any new GMs we can find... its just that we have found that the idea of trading with GMless teams can cause HUGE contreversy...

I will see what i can do, please let me know if these are the open teams.

Oakland, Milwaukee, Baltimore...Am i missing anyone?

Is there a way that we can atleast straighten out the milwaukee financial situation, who is going to want to step in to that mess.

We've implemented cutting an unlimited number of players for these teams in reconstruction....

However... we aren't going to do resetting debt because the game has this problem with changing cash reserves..

Cool, whatever you guys come up with sounds good just trying to think of a keen way to get them straightened out.

Back to the trading with unowned teams thing real quick:

I think allowing this would help straighten these teams out. Take Milwaukee for example, tons of pitching, no offense, a few trades could quickly get them on the right track which in the long run would help in getting them an owner.

I see the concern in doing so though, totally understandable, but if owners came forward with good honest deals, it couldn't hurt right?

Maybe a league vote for trades between unowned teams, just tossing ideas, doesn't make that big of a difference either way i guess, just trying to think from a league perspective instead of team.

Adios

We've had so many questions about this that it really became an issue when we were debating about it... I think you can find the thread in the "Winter Meetings" forum...
