Two questions: 1.) I assume I'm not image leeching if I'm taking the banner off of lpix.org? I can switch hosting but I figured it was kosher... 2.) Roster, strategy, lineups, etc. are below.

 OK, DL Cobb, setup Rollie, and Holly; send down Michael Young and Chipper. RF should be a Berkman/Vladdy platoon, and Eric Davis comes up to platoon with Snider. On the pitching side, Hershiser comes up to LR, Kerry Wood sets up, Hiller to SR, and Guzman to MR, since Bograt kicked him off the team.  Swap Newk and Niekro because I am loving insane, send down Rags and call up Kaat to MR. Max Hit and Run if you haven't.

But he has an amusing name and position coverage, and is still probably an upgrade for you. In CF terms (or corner, whatever) I have a young Dusty Baker and George Hendrick avaliable. I do have better avaliable trade stuff, but I want Sergio Romo from you, and he's not really worth a vast amount more. I could probably offer you a SP/RP to take up his bench place along with the deal. Don't really like any of those enough, so I'll just hold onto Romo.

Early Wynn can provide SP cover if needed, but IF depth/bullpen could be improved... If you don't mind, old bean, what years are David Wells, Edgar Renteria and Ian Desmond? Obviously only one of them would go, a straight minor league for minor league swap. Edit: spreadsheet link!

 theacox! It has come to my attention that you still have possession of One (1) Unopened Mystery Envelope. Being as it is that I am an idealistic man who loves his arbitrary gambles, I would like to relieve you of this item, as soon as possible. What kind of deal can we strike?

Here's an updated roster for the not-yet-christened-team-I-can't-figure-out-a-name-for, making corrections to the roster and adding the code names as requested. Note I'm using Rogers Centre as my stadium, presumably at sea level.code:Prefer No DH, which will make lives easier I imagine.
