Hey all! I'm back for another round of this!


I'm already up in June 2nd with a poor record....

Here's what I will say for now:


RAYS CALL UP 2007 FIRST ROUND PICK DAVID PRICE.
This move was done after struggling J.P Howell was sent down.

PRICE SHARP IN MLB DEBUT.
as they steamroll over the WSox, I simmed it. Price was sharp in a 20k shutout.

Sharp! Sharp is when a pitcher holds another team to 2-runs in 6 innings. That was not sharp haha. Might want to raise the level a notch or 3.

Both of you shut-up if that's all your going to say, Okay? I have all the difficulties of powerful, so quit jumping to conclusions. I played half the game.

Cownip, don't get so technical, who cares?!?! I have seen people do that all time if it was 1 run in 7 innings.


Just received this from Tigers:

Bonderman 8500
Verlander 1030
Jones 7000
for
Cliff Floyd 2750

Pros:
Adding 2 starters (something we need)
adding a better set-up/ closer

Cons:
Adding alot to payroll
None are having good season
Floyd is

What do you think? Yay or Nay?

I say Nay. Beacause I'm working on a trade deal that will ship Trevor Miller and maybe Jeff Nieman over to the Astros for Wandy Rod.

I was just jokin' with you mate, it was just you called it sharp because he was so incredible that I'd say its beyond sharp.

Well, I haven't felt compelled to post anythings, here's something:


AL lost All-star game 6-3.


Rays get Wandy Rodriguez and Jed Lowrie from Astros for Trevor Miller and Dan Johnson.

Working on a deal with the Angels.


It wasn't the sharp that got me angry, it's assuming and concluding that I need to turn up the difficulty without getting facts.

RAYS MAKE THEIR MOVE IN A DEADLINE DEAL
With just minutes left in the deadline, the Rays package Gabe Gross, Jason Hammels, and cash considerations to the Angels for prospects, SS Sean Rodriguez and P R. Thompson.

Manager Joe Maddon seemed excited with the deal saying that quote "our pitching coach will get along well with Thompson's Slow Curve"


The Rays also filed in a trade with the D-Backs, so even though the deadline is passed, they still have to make a trade with AZ beacause they filed in a trade with them. This Trade has thrown around names such as Mark Reynolds, Justin Upton, and Chad Qualls, as well as, Jeff Niemann, Jae-kuk Ryu, Dan Wheeler and Jason Bartlett.

Be glad you didn't get Jaque Jones(who I assume you're talking about unless it's todd jones) but you'd have to be staring at one of those huge ugly mustaches the konami for some reason gave him. I took it off of him, it was just unbearable to see.

RAYS FIND A STEAL WITH D-BACKS!
This trade will really help us:

The Rays sent away Eric Hinske, but welcomed Great Vazquez, Justin Upton, and Miguel Montero!
