Was just offered a trade, wanted your guys' opinions.
I get:
Ervin Santana (edited to 5 H-SLD, 5 DCB, 3 CHG, C CTRL, A STAM)
They get:
Hanley Ramirez

I could try and trade for a SS after another trade offer I just made, probably for Jose Reyes.
comments?
I'm probably gonna make the trade, then i can trade another guy (I'm not telling) and save some salary for the SS deal.
It'd give DePablos some good experience too, he went 3-6 last night, with 2 doubles, including one off Billy Wagner.

I say no, Hanley is too good in this game. I'll bet you can trade someone else for Ervin Santana.

Do like a counter-offer. Refuse the offer, go back and make a counter offer for the same player, just with a different player from your squad.

Hanley is too good to trade unless your backup is awesome as well and you need pitchers badly.

I going to turn you into the police for Robbery

A flurry of trades has surrounded the San Francisco Giants.

First Ervin Santana WAS in fact, traded to the Giants so Hanley could be back with the BoSox ( ).
Then, however, Asdrubal Cabrera (DDCBA), Dan Haren and Grady Sizemore were acquired for Freddy Sanchez, Brandon Webb and Hunter Pence, moving Matt Kemp to right for Grady to be in center.
Finally, Michael Young, Orlando Hudson and, interestingly enough, Kevin Correia (who was traded from the Giants to Texas) were received for Aaron Cook, Scott Schoenweis and Nick Swisher.
About 19500 in points were received from the last 2 trades combined.
