You got neither for just Rutherford but rather a one for one. The trade stands but you didn't even get what asked for and I am sure you had better offers for just Rutherford. Not just from a contender. No hard feelings but more was needed from Boston here. It is over and done with just thought you might want to know the original complaint.
Funny thing is again your giving input where none was asked. You tried to undersell me for Rutherford and yet you complain about someone else making the trade to get him. Your entitled to your opinion but it is just that yours. No one wanted me to trade him to Montreal. Accomplished. Wanted to get him to a team that could use him to compete. Accomplished. Wanted to get return for him before his value decreased. Accomplished. Didn't want to get an unfair deal. Accomplished In MY opinion. It was my offer to him. I have been playing this game since 2004/5. I have a grasp of the concept . In my opinion.

Nothing wrong with the trade. It was fine.
Re: Michael1 Input
2ndCos,
I don't know what I have done in the WBL to merit you to come out with the unpleasant comments to me in Public but for whatever reason you seem to be upset with me. I rejected your original offer for Rutherford because you wanted too many prospects. I waited a while then offered what I was comfortable with to get a 34 year old pitcher. You rejected as is your right but I didn't understand why St.Louis' 1st was worse than Boston's first that you settled for in your offer. NONE the less after the trade was upheld I figured you might want to know why it was challenged. I know you know what you are doing. Despite certain forum posts I know how to play this game thanks to people like you being willing to give advice to me. I would hope whatever I have done you can PM me and tell me and we can work this out. In a period where this site can't afford to lose owners calling guys out in public has been a leading reason folks leave.

Re: Michael1 Input
Michael1, it is funny that you are complaining about being called out in public when that is exactly what you did to 2ndCos in the trade complaint thread.
