Atlanta / Dodgers

[sxr007]

receives:

C Artis (93) Age 33, 15 mil thru 2039

receives:

SP Puerta 72/88, age 21, pennies
RP Oswalt 78/82, age 25, pennies
OF Thompson 77/90, age 24, pennies

Dodgers approve. I have a AAA catcher that is blocked and a good backup C as well. Getting younger while still trying to compete in the terrible West.

ATL accepts. Dealing Puerta hurts, but i have plenty of pitching depth at the moment, get a solid C with a nice bat.

isn't this a sign-and-trade? This can't go through.

[Atlbravesfan27]

he's been on the dodgers since 2034...

[mattynokes]

Artis just signed an extension after last season. It would be the very definition of a sign and trade.

[AndyP]

Right, essentially he tried to bypass FA with Artis in order to keep trade value for him. It's manipulative of the system which is exactly why the rule exists.
