And now there are only 5 teams in all of baseball who have done nothing to improve their major league roster.


Wait, what?  Let me quote the quote..."Now there are only 5 teams in all of baseball who have done nothing to improve their major league roster"



This is why I love you and GW, you're just too easy. Just upstream, it was simply "grading the moves". 



Please, once again for the entire audience, explain how the Rangers continue to "improve their major league roster" when they have now lost TWO major leaguers you have scored for a total of 5 points, and replaced them with a total of 2.5 points worth of major leaguers. How did they actually upgrade their major league roster?



For extra credit, how did the Brewers improve their major league roster by losing a guy who you scored higher than a guy they picked up?








The math in this thread has always confused me because I find math to be hard.  It's been proven that three out of every two people don't understand it.


I had to look at this twice doc, good one

Hey doc, I have math problems too. I can only count to 20 using my fingers and toes and trying to multiply or divide is a horror when I think of adding or removing a finger or toe. ;D

Half the time, it works every time.

I think i am getting the premise of this thread now, but didnt the Pirates improve their team with moves? They got rid of their two worst starting pitchers, their worst reliever and worst position player.

How nice it is for you to speak like that about your mother. My mom was a saint as well but she had a great big humorous and prankster strip right down her back. And when it came to pulling pranks I was usually the target. Maybe that's why I have learned to laugh at myself and be somewhat of a prankster myself.

The Philadelphia Phillies get Dave Dombroski from Nashville Organization for a 2. What say, you Greenweenie and Wildwood Dave?
