It's a 1937 Ted Lyons and that's DEFINITELY why I'm stepping in as commish and voiding this trade. Try again.

Because this trade didn't happen, this set of roster moves isn't happening either.

You didn't do anything wrong baseball-wise. Baseball is random and sometimes your team eats poo poo. You're doing a LOT wrong by whining about it and inviting owners to come fleece you, which is both annoying AND jeopardizes competitive balance. Knock it off. You're on the clock, btw. Or you can trade, reasonably.

If Jose Cruz is going to be mediocre at the dish, I can get Andy Van Slyke to do that instead while providing good defense.

-Cruz to AAA
-Van Slyke back up
-Yount to AAA, I'll use Mark Ellis as backup SS and give it to Yount in the event Ozzie suffers injury

Okay. Let's get some changes going.

Massholes take 2010 Joaquin Benoit and slot him into Setup, Jose Valverde gets promoted to Closer and John Hiller gets to take a break.

In addition, let's rest Teddy Ballgame for the next sim, put Jim Northrup in at LF for the sim. And then we'll bench Mickey Lolich and let Bob Feller get some run at SP5.

Mine hasn't either but my outfield is worse.

Pianosa takes 1978 Lyman Bostock, sending Cesar Cedeno to AAA. Bostock becomes RF in all lineups. Platoons are Van Slyke/Otis in CF, Brett/Torre at 1b, Chavez/Molitor at 3b, Molitor/Ellis at 2b, Brock/Cepeda at DH

We move to a 11 man pitching staff with Tudor odd man out in order to have a roster spot for backup C Jason Kendall
