KC gets: Jason Giambi Rudy Guillen Tommy Schmidt Chris Colton
COL gets: Kelly Shoppach Jayson Nix Chris Lubanski Jimmy Gobble Travis Ezi Santiago Perez Billy Wagner Brandon Inge Joseph Winkelsas and 3 players to be named later
COL accepts this deal, hate losing Giambi's huge bat and awesome OBP from our ML, and hate losing Rudy Guillen who many teams have asked about and is going to be a great promising OF'er in the future, and Schmidt who should win many Gold Gloves at 1st base and very serviceable bat, and Chris Colton who is a great OBP guy, but getting the slew of players including Billy Wagner to help our RP just makes this deal worth it for the Rockies.

KC so much wanted Giambi. It cost a bit, but we think it will be worth it.

trade makes no sense for KC, but to each his own.

Hey, tell me who the managers are who wanted Guillen. I mean I am sure I can find a crappy player who has a shitty OBP and crappy SLG who doesn't have a OPS over .800 against righties to pawn off on them.

What...it is late so I hope I am miss reading this...KC sends all those players to COL for Giambi, Guillen, Schmidt and Colton...the turns and gives COL Giambi, Guillen and Colton back. I had a drink before I came home from work, but that can't be right. I don't have access to HHManager right now...but that can't be right. Am I retarded?

Ah, come on. I really wanted Giambi but when I noticed that I was then over the cap I had to send Giambi back. But Schmidt should turn out to be a steller player. He's now starting for me on the ML level.

This is just a stupid joke trade from Colorado. He's just looking to get you guys pissed off for no reason so don't bother.

shut up Sea, this was not my idea, and all this was to do was to keep the league active so there.

Yes, it was my idea. So don't go blame Millage for this. I asked him what he thought and why and he went for it agreeing with me that it could keep some interest elsewhere while there is a sim-strike. Apparently it worked. So have no fear, this is NOT a real trade. Just a ruse to get your mire up in a tizzy and for some it worked REAL well. For others, they saw it as it was right away.
