TRADE:NEW YORK YANKEES/MONTREAL EXPOS

[Zim - Yanks]

In the most bizaar move this organization has ever seen put together, The Yankees move down in thee draft to acquire a better drafting format by picking twice every other round, instead of once a round. So without furthur adieu, The New York Yankees General Manager announces the news to the media via press conference.


With a lot of back and forth, and some simple tweaks, The New York Yankees have agreed to the following deal in which 


New York Trades
away 3 Inaugural Drafft Picks

1oth Rd:12th Pick

11th Rd:5th Pick

12th Rd:12th Pick



as well as 9 Prospect Draft Picks


3rd Rd:12th Pick

4th Rd:5th Pick

6th Rd:5th Pick

8th Rd:5th Pick

1oth Rd:5th Pick

12th Rd:5th Pick

14th Rd:5th Pick

16th Rd:5th Pick

18th Rd:5th Pick







to Montreal for...



3 Inaugural Draft Picks

13th Rd:6th Pick

14th Rd:11th Pick

15th Rd:6th Pick



and 9 Prospect Draft Picks.


2nd Rd:6th Pick

5th Rd:11th Pick

7th Rd:11th Pick

11th Rd:11th Pick

13th Rd:11th Pick

15th Rd:11th Pick

The Initial reaction from The Yankees Fans of the world is what a terrible way to trade picks. After sitting down, and looking at the new draft board, and how nicely positioned those b2b picks are, The Organization, as well as its fan base, foresee many steals in the forthcoming Prospect Draft.

The Yankees Thank The Expos for having the willingness to fly against the wind and make a sensational trade despite not having the normal parameters of other trades.

[Chris - Expos]

The Expos didn't want to part ways with their 2nd round PP pick but after a lot of negotiating, came up with a deal that will suit both teams. The organisation is also looking forward to the b2b picks in the draft and accept the Yankees offer.

[Drew - Dodgers]

Hahahaha have fun switching that stuff Ty

WTF!!
what is the point of this trade?


for tyler sake i would veto it lol

[Deleted]

this is way too much movement for him to just jump into the 2nd round prospect draft lol. This deal probably could have just as easily been this:

New York Trades
away 3 Inaugural Drafft Picks
10th Rd:12th Pick
11th Rd:5th Pick
12th Rd:12th Pick

Prospect:
3rd Rd:12th Pick
4th Rd:5th Pick

to Montreal for.
3 Inaugural Draft Picks
13th Rd:6th Pick
14th Rd:11th Pick
15th Rd:6th Pick

Prospect:
2nd Rd:6th Pick
5th Rd:11th Pick

[Chris - Expos]

Honestly, that was pretty much the initial deal but Zim proposed the idea of each of us getting back to back picks every second round and it sounded intriguing to me.

[Deleted]

that actually does sound interesting.. now that you say it.. Hey Josh.. send me a message regarding this.. haha!

[Peter - Angels]

I commend the craftsmanship in this deal

[Josh - Rangers]

looks like a good trade to me, brings back memories of the isles offering all their draft picks to move up a pair of spots in the nhl draft! Its strange, its odd, but it has merit when looked at as a strategy! I'll let Ty actually transfer them in the threads though

[Josh - Rangers]

I'd be up for it Davies, assuming i get the first back to back picks

[Chris - Expos]

Wow Zim, look what we started!!

[Deleted]

if i was tyler i would start a new rule limiting the amount of assets exchanged amongst a trade to prevent this mockery again lol

[Deleted]

ok but it wont be in the first 3 rounds probably haha. after that no problem but i want to move into a back to back situation in the main draft first then

we could just draft the guys each other wants, than once a round trade them back to each other to make Ty have to key out somewhere in the neighborhood of 20+ trades

this does seem like more fun for Tyler! I like it!
