P Gibson, Kyle, $0.5m (P-n/a)
P Banuelos, Manny, $0.5m (2011)
P Dwyer, Christopher, $0.5m (P-n/a)
P Duffy, Danny, $0.5m (P-n/a)
OF Rasmus, Colby, $0.5m (P-2012)

for

OF Upton, Justin, $6.5m (2015)
2.5M in 2011, 2.5M in 2012


Rasmus 16 a game, way better contract

for

Upton 16 a game

AND were now gona add in 4 top 100 specs, Gibson #34, Banuelos #41, Duffy #68, Dwyer #83

Those are Baseball America's rankings. The same rankings has Belt at #23.

The trade above was practically giving a team 4 specs. You can argue that one spec may be needed MAYBE! But 3. So now I am trying to trade for #23 while giving him young workable pieces to win this year.

i will add in another spec if it will help the TC to not talk people out of trades just because u may not do the deal doesnt mean im ripping him off we are both gettin what we want in a trade! 

so the yanks offer to send another spec  in this deal if that helps everyone

If this one gets vetoed as I am suspecting it will, I am going to kindly ask all 29 other teams to please not offer me any trades as the amount of offers and PM's is overwhelming to me. Everyone wants players off of the Rocks and not so much prey, but attempt to possibly obtain a player from a new GM. I have already had 2 trades vetoed and a 3rd within a week is really bad. I will look at specs, free agent signings, extensions etc. of that nature, but no trading for me for awhile. There is a reason that Colby has a rule that a new GM cannot trade for 2 weeks. I know player value, but I need to step back and really look at things. Thanks for understanding.

i will add in another spec to get it done finally but i completly think other similar deals have went through

I will disapprove as well.  Sorry Rox/Yanks, in my opinion, the ceiling of Belt/Sappelt far outweighs the return.  I understand the Rockies looking to acquire pitchers, but Belt's value is relatively established as a top 30 prospect both in ranking sheets and this league, and top prospects garner good to great value in this league.

Replacing Hinske with a better hitter would probably change my mind on this deal, should you guys wish to rework it.

True, but I am allowed to bring it up for the New GM of the Rockies.  While previous trades do not factor in, it is shown as an example to back up the rest of my argument.  If you take that example away, the rest of the post still states why I don't agree with the trade. 

I understand that opinions on Belt are subjective and the next TC member may disagree.  This is just my opinion.   

no problem man i just wanted to state mine as well.. no hard feelings

[MillerTime]

as i was told in another deal of mine what belt was traded for before has no impact on his overall value. if someone else values him more and paid more thats not my problem. i feel i have seen trade equal to this one go through. i dont understand.....but i am new
