Hopefully someone will see that this is a fair deal. A lot of young talent and two pretty decent ML pitchers, which I needed badly.

if this gets veto'd, I'll seriously quit.

[jps93]

accept. i think darnell will give me a HUGE boost in offense, and it also allows me to keep Miller in the minors another year or two. Heckathorn never panned out for me and cassidy is definitely expendable if I'm getting a guy of darnell's caliber.

This haul still isn't great, it's a low-end deal, but it is fair.

Heckathorn himself is worth more then the pile of crap in the last offer. Cassidy and Nelson have some upside.

Approved.
