Lopsided Trades

July 01, 2002 at 11:18PM View BBCode

There should be a way in which owners can vote to veto an obviously 1-sided or collusive trade. In my league an owner traded his 1st 3 draft picks (an A and two B+ players) to another team for trash. This sounds like one guy owning 2 teams, 2 friends colluding to build a powerful team at the expense of the other or an incompetant owner. Whatever the case may be, this should not be allowed to take place.

Here is a solution: Once a trade has been offered and accepted, e-mail is automatically sent to the other owners in the league. The trade will sit in the "Pending League Trades" section of the Trade Desk for 48 hours so the rest of the league can review it. If you believe the trade is extremely lopsided or collusive, you may protest the trade. If a trade receives the maximum number of league member protests (6) during the 48-hour review period, it will automatically be declined.

This review process will assure that grossly unfair trades can be vetoed if enough owners in the league dem it lopsided.

I agree 100%. This will be worked on in this summer.

I looked at the trade, it is a bit unfair but I've seen much worse. I've looked for all the usual other characteristics of cheating, and haven't found any.

The team that traded the good pitchers was really overstocked with pitchers. Let me get these guys in here to see if they can explain the trade. I think it was just a "different" trade.
