jonthefon 0 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 So a deal got accepted in my league (5x5 roto), now pending at: Chase Utley, Randy Johnson for Rich Harden, Joakim Soria Now, the owner sending Utley is getting cold feet because he just realized it would leave him down a middle infielder (2B, SS, MI positions). He's probably emailed everyone to help veto the deal. I can see why, but the value is pretty even. He's not getting robbed. I'm leaning towards not doing so, but thinking about doing it because I guess I feel a little sorry for him (well, I'm hardly an expert either). But that's probably ethically wrong, and it might draw suspicion if he accepts a deal I've proposed to him as a result. Thoughts? Link to post Share on other sites
kaesr 179 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 He definitely is getting robbed, but he did it to himself. I don't think you trade Utley for any pitcher less than Johan or maybe Lincecum. His getting 2 good pitchers, but not good enough to justify trading Utley IMO. In my league, everyone knows that once you hit the accept button, the deal is done unless both owners agree to undo it.

cEpHeus 0 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Yeah, this guy is SoL @ this point. He should've taken more time to think about the deal, since he totally missed that his MI situation would be shot and didn't see that a crime was being committed... Link to post Share on other sites

Thoughts? hate the trade, but no way to stop it now.... did he know soria had arm soreness before he made the deal? still, doesnt really matter.... ive had plenty of deals i wish i could have undone a day after i accepted them, but thats the breaks...

johnnystick77 6 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Not veto-able imo.....just an impulsive trade. Link to post Share on other sites
shnootre 0 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Yeah - no way should he be bailed out by a veto. It was his poor (and by poor I mean godawful, roof shaking, ridiculous) judgment that got him in this mess - he has to accept the consequences. Link to post Share on other sites
