So you don't need a renewable revenue source for a one year deal. I'm tom bout one year deals here, not some huge, multi-year deal. Cash from trades is a good way to help you earn a profit if you need it and increase your budget. Obviously you can't depend on it.
Technically it wasn't because we didn't agree to the trade before he signed him. That trade could never happen in MLB though because you have to wait something like 60 or 90 days into the year before you can trade FAs.lol doh was apart of a S&T just last year. Figs signed Berrios and shipped him to doh probably 3 days later
I mean it depends how much cash you get. Your budget is given to you based on your owners expected revenue and it's pretty much the break even point if you perform as expected. If you get cash to cover the salary, you will be fine barring a terrible season attendance-wise. You would have been fucked with a terrible season attendance-wise anyway though if you are that close to the budget (see my team last year).So if you are going $10M over to sign someone, even for a one year deal then you better win a lot. I am barely making money and I didn't go over. So yes, if you are already out of cash (meaning you are $10M over your budget or just have 0 cash) and then go $10M over that number you are effed even with the cash from another team, unless you sell out a 47k stadium the whole year.
I think we are talking about different things. I am literally experiencing what you have been describing right now, so I know exactly what happens haha.What I'm trying to get through to you is that it is very hard to make a $15-$20 million dollar profit unless you just tank the hell out of your team and subsidize/load up on rookie contracts (which this person wouldn't be doing since they'd exceed their budget). So they'd just get their budget docked a sizeable amount if it didn't work out big. Big like $20M in profits with a stacked payroll. So $170M-$180M in revenue.

I was fucked last year either way. It's like my owner dying scared people away. That is basically what happened with me and Key/Fahd. I took a pretty bad loss because I was over budget and had terrible attendance. I ended up with a giant hit on my budget. They weren't one year deals though.
Yawn. Call me when Moscow moves Padilla.Bart Scott for the off-season tho. Here are a few names that will possibly be moved

Just make OU an offer, he isn't that tough to deal with
Nah but I will if you throw the last three games of the year against SeoulWill you get upset if i keep using this one?
I think it'd be awesome…
MY thoughts on the series: You win 3 of 4. I win 2 of 3 from Moscow. You finish one out of Lamb and I tie with Seoul after they go 6-1 this week.
Lots of catcher @OU11
