Agree. I give up Napoli but i got a great cather in my syatem a year or 2 away, and Kendall is a nice bridge for him to come over. The other three are all nice specs too.

I'm not a fan of this trade but it is equal... Kendall is a horrible bat as far as I'm concerned. Brant Colamarino doesn't seem to fit in, especially since Chris Duncan can play first. Kelyn Acosta isn't needed because, pitching-wise, we have a surplus of MLB ready people. And Sanders?... Well, I've always seen him as trade bait when I look at the Giants. Given that if Napoli his .270 this year that his OPS would easily had been over .800 or even .900 this is like trading away Morgan Ensburg if he played catcher =\ Personally, you could have gotten more. Just my 2 cents. Just my 2 cents.

So let me get this straight. The talent levels being exchanged are said to be fair, and both GMs originally agreed to the trade... but yet somehow this trade is on its way to being rejected? Yes I realize that hasn't been directly said in this thread, but it is being inferred.
HalosGM, Sanji tells you that you could have received more, so you decide to change your mind regarding the trade? What the hell is the point of having you as a GM if other people have to tell you how to operate your team? When I inquired about Napoli, why didn't you simply tell me that you wanted to shop him around first? Bottom line, if you go back on this trade, I will refuse to deal with you again in any future endeavors.
Thesoxrock34, are you "thinking about this deal" b/c you aren't sure if it's fair or not.... or just b/c Sanji posted a dissenting opinion? Yes, this is a rhetorical question.
In conclusion, if this deal does not go through on the basis that it doesn't overwhelmingly benefit multiple facets of the Angels, I will not be happy to say the least.

i sort of tend to agree with bacardio because i think that the talent levels are fair in exchange and considerign you accepted that is liek a contract so he should be bound to it

Yeah, I was under the impression that unless a trade is specifically not approved, it goes through. I have to say I agree with bacardio31 with the idea that it should go through. Otherwise, who's to say a team doesn't work out a trade for someone at the deadline, then when it's too late to work out a trade with another team, they renege on the deal, effectively blocking the key player(s) from others?
At the very least, there seemed to be a definite conflict of interest, whether intentional or not, between when this was agreed to and earlier tonight.

The thing is technically NONE of these trades should go through. We're still in the dead period.
Your concern has been noted and the staff will look into this trade more. Expect an answer within 24 hours.
