D'Backs sign: 6-Perez, Yohannis

Brewers release Kenny 0-Ray

Brewers create Dustin 6-Martin

Mets release Justin Germano

Mets sign Luke Hudson.

Now that the Mets have been eliminated from the winter tournament, Hudson returns. Truth is none of the numerous other starting pitchers tried after Ledezma, Hill and Laffey performed better then Hudson ... geez!

DBacks release Bryan 0-LaHair

DBacks create Juan 0-Lara

DevilRays create Andrew 6-Carpenter

I don't know if human posts are allowed here but Jagger you've done this several times now and it really pisses me off. Why would you trade for someone and then release him the next day? Doing that invalidates the balance the TRC makes to evaluate the trade. If you didn't want the guy why trade for him? Just keep the open spot on your roster so you can create your prospect du jour. Anyone think I'm out of line for bitching about this? I think if you trade for a guy he should have to stay on your roster for at least a couple weeks or something before he can be released (of course that player could still be traded, but released is a different thing).

I know that when I was dealing with Jagger we had worked out a deal that both of us had liked... LaHair was not in the deal, but I knew Jagger did like LaHair.

I had to drop someone so I added him into the deal and Jagger accepted.

Only after the matter did Jagger say that he did not want LaHair. Well I was too lazy to re-enter the deal into the system, so he just accepted as is and dropped him after the deal was processed.

Look at the deal, LaHair certainly was not going to make or break this deal on either side. So in that regard I dont think it would have any affect on a TRC vote. If he wanted to drop him for someone else what is wrong with that?

Similarly, if I do a deal with a gy where I'm giving up more players than him, a lot of the time I'll ask who he's going to drop (if he has to drop anyone). If there's someone in there who catches my eye, I'll ask him to be tossed in, but I don't think twice about dropping them.
