After several weeks of the season there are several GM’s throwing in the towel. These decisions have affected the trade market. New York has declared they are looking to move all higher salaried players with GM Yanks21 stating ” Still looking to move anyone making over the league minimum on ml roster”.
The GM of the San Diego Fish Tacos has been quoted with “I may start tearing down as well since it appears we are all playing for second place now”. This quote came after the news broke that divison rival Salem aquired ace Vincenzo Wakeland with his 8 wins and 3.38 ERA. This aquision gives Salem the best one two punch with Sutton and Wakeland.
The Ottawa Mounties are looking to unload Rafael Olivo and his 9 million a year salary.
Watch the ESPN newswire because am sure more trades are to come!!!!
It’s definitely a buyer’s market right now, but that doesn’t mean that talent is cheap. I worry if newcomers to HBD understand the value of prospects, even if that value won’t be realized for a few more years, when they may not be the manager anymore. With all the emphasis on “winning next year”, we’re in for a couple of good seasons in Clarkson.
