min transaction amt

[Minnesota Twins]

Min bid in auction is $100k.

Is there a min to exchange in a trade?

Ex. Say i want to sell asd cabrera to dump his salary, can i trade him for $1, or should it be $100k min, or $325k min?

Just curious...

[ex-Pittsburgh Pirates]

I know there isn't any defined minimum.

I don't think there should be.

I've been waiting for years for the first $1 trade. It makes sense sometimes for someone to want to get out of a contract that someone else is willing to take on.

Like, for example....if anyone wants CLiff Lee for $1, let me know.

Isn't the minimum bids on players 325k?

In the auctions, bidding increments are 100k.

[Minnesota Twins]

yes, but we're saying we could trade.

Player X

for

$1

i presume you could even give guys away for free.

At one point i offered a player plus a good draft pick for a 5th round draft pick. I can't remember if that trade went through.

Salary cap implications make for some interesting trade scenarios, which is why this is the best league I'm in.

Can I tradea player for a large pepperoni pizza or a Six pack? Seems like a win / win for all

[Minnesota Twins]

can't mix reality and fantasy, but you could trade a player for a pretend pizza!

You could get Yu Darvish from the Phillies if you promise to pooper-scoop his yard for a week.

[Minnesota Twins]

I bet ol phil would give him away if you just paid his salary

[ex-Pittsburgh Pirates]

I offered him Cliff Lee (80% chance he won't pitch this year) for Darvish (100% chance won't pitch this year) if he pays the difference in salary. He never responded.

Makes me think I may have done a good thing with trading Lee.

To much thought 80% of Lee for 100% of Darvish. I'm sure if I'd even thought about it, I'd lose money.
