You wanna spark the trade market? I think this is why its gone to "shit", prospects are too safe, teams don't have to move up the window with 6 talent reversals to work with, they can reverse and wait, its extremely rare a prospect runs out of reversals before he is already fully developed. It would make the less talented guys valuable again. Of course bad PD's suck, but they also force teams to not hold prospects because they can wait on them to development, instead, they better go find the player that is at that level and grab him.
Proposal is a return to the 1 PD (up to five reversals if its a big PD) but once that one reversal is gone thats it. Handling current players? If a player is out of reversals, he doesn't get one, otherwise every player has ONE reversal left that can be used for one days PD

i told y'all the newer system would makes things worse
i'd be okay with a limit on just 4 reversals (total)...use them how you like

I disagree with this. Like i told broph last night, its the prospects that are the problem. They are coming in way to developed. Why deal when you got 18/19 year olds like this bbs56.net/BBSBL3/BBSBL3/Site/p1394.htmlbbs56.net/BBSBL3/BBSBL3/Site/p1344.htmlNobody is going to move those guys really at all and I don't blame them. Prospects need to come in a lot more raw. Look at Miguel Sano, he came in raw as fuck and he basically died. Teams need to have the fear of their raw prospect dying out instead of having a guy that is basically a year or half a season away from the majors come to their team.

nah thats not the reason trades arent getting done...some of you guys use that as an excuse because you can't get deals done
Which GM's are hording all of the youth and not trading?
Philadelphia is just cheap Styro will be Styro he just loves youth regardless Anaheim wasn't doing shit with the 3 teams ahead of them.
so which teams are hoarding around youth because the players are safe?

i'm one of the few that have no problem trading youth for win now pieces
spence/kobe/erbes and a couple others do the same because we understand how to win, but come on man

Stool dealt his youth dave dealt what youth he had, same with Kobe
Theres a group of teams that just aren't really active at all and that right there hurts the league.

why do u think i'm saying this league sucks?

its hard to make trades when you only have about half of the league active.

This frenzy isn't a clear indication of anything... um, yea it is why do u think erbes is counting a lot of these trades as "half"...a good bit of those shouldn't even counted no its not...like I said theres a problem with the amount of GMs trading not people holding on to players. Greeme did several trades before the offseason, same with myself, spencer and Stool. Shale's team is basically where its at. Dave, I dunno what hes doing. Jah is straped for cash. Kobe - I guess is away Dale just made 2 back to back world series and added a pitcher. Darell is going into season 3 of his rebuild Break is rebuilding(I guess) Philly is cheap and doesn't want to give up value for any players St Louis - no clue whats going on with him, same with cleveland, white sox, seattle, texas and florida(this is what hurts the league)Dan has been trying to get Sale from me for the past few days No clue where game is at Stutter doesn't have shit Anaheim has added a few pieces even though his trades were horrible Florida no gm So yeah this frenzy isn't an indication of anything really that has to do with trading...several major deals were made before the offseason even started.

Frenzy isnt a clear indication if anything other than the inactive teams and how unreasonable Stool and greeme are
