Trade Complaint

Post by Admin »

There has been an abuse report on a recent trade:
Trade #1564845 has been completed between the Chicago Blue Sox and the Montreal Snowbirds. The Montreal Snowbirds receive Don Lowry, Art Cady, Ron Tavarez from the Chicago Blue Sox in exchange for Hank Maple, Lee Fonseca, Arnold Elliott, Draft Pick - 2043 Round 1 (MON).

If 3 complaints are not received in the next 72 hours, the matter will be considered closed. To lodge a complaint, please visit http://www.simdynasty.com/tradevote.jsp?tradeid=1564845&newsid=1073086638.

I ask that you refrain from discussing trades. Nothing positive ever comes from this. Anyone discussing any trades publicly may have their posting privileges revoked.

So if you feel this complaint is without merit, please simply vote to allow the trade to stand.

IMPORTANT: Please remember that not all trades are equal, and not all inequal trades should be overturned. A trade should only be overturned if there is bad faith on the part of one or both of the teams involved. If both teams get something they need out of the trade and neither party is taking advantage of an unaware trading partner, the trade should stand. Overturning a trade may not be used as a strategic option.

If either of the two owners involved in this deal would like to comment on the deal, please reply to this thread stating the facts or reasons for this trade without emotion or being argumentative.
To help us serve you better, please use the support system for all questions or problems. PMs should NEVER be used. The Support system is always read before PMs.

Montreal sent me an offer for Art Cady. We negotiated and came up with this trade.

Since it is pretty obvious I am not going to win this year, I thought it was in my best interest to start a rebuild. Cady just won the CY Young and is one of the best pitchers in the game. Also, he is on pace to be the all time leader in ERA. I don’t necessarily want to trade him but if I did trade him, I wanted it to help me in the future.

His #1 will likely be a low #1.
Maple the best player I received in my opinion. Good hitter and fielder.
Fonseca is a good player but not great. He’s 26 and I like him but he doesn’t his lefties that great and some of his best development years ar behind him.
Elliot is a very good player like Maple but he had D health. I’ve never been a fan of low health guys. Still, he’s a good power hitter and the 2nd best player I received in my opinion.
Lowry still has 3 seasons remaining until he starts to decline so he’s not really that old. And he won the MVP a couple years back. He’s another very good player.

All in all, I honestly don’t see this as a lopsided trade. I think it’s one owner rebuilding and the other owner trying to improve his team right now.
