====================================== Hey Guys-----just looking for a tad bit of Outfield Ab's as insurance in overusage areas. I have Pitching( primarily relief--but also some crappy fill starts if you need) to offer, and a lot of 3b at bats. I also have Jason Bates( who qualifies at 3b/2b/ and SS) with 206 bonus ab's as a nice usage filler in the infield. Just looking for some OF ab's at this point. I could also rid myself of catcher Kelly Stinnett if someone needs his 126 bonus abs?? Bigger deals??? Fire away your ideas---always open to thought. Personally hate my 1b Rafael Palmerio and of course Cansec-hole. Your baseball friend, Doc Schweitzer AC Vultures Guys-----the Vultures got their needed "insurance" ab's for the outfield---thanks to those who made offers. I will trade anything else I mentioned before. I had some offers for Palmerio, and at least one very serious! But I passed on it for now. The Vultures( like everyone in this "alternate reality era" of steroidness) are always looking for solid stud starting Pitching! Always best wishes to all SPB-ers for fun and excitement in your GM experience! Doctor Schweitzer ============================== If you are looking for some relief pitching usage I have some very useful spare parts. Seeking 4th and 5th round type picks in return. Make me an offer ….. Matt Whiteside 6.68 28G Several years of mediocrity with tons of usage Mark Eichhorn 5.04 48G Final season Dean Hartgraves* 4.78 60G Final season (except for a handful of 1998 games) Larry Thomas* 3.23 60G 5G next year - then done Lee Hancock* 6.38 26G Final season Greg Hansell 5.69 60G Some future usage - decent 1999 Don - Niskayuna ============================== Dreads seeking a quality starter. Can offer up guys like Johnny Damon(for a long term guy) or Gregg Jeffries, Dave Nilsson or Hal Morris for a shorter fix, but all are quality players. Could also use a long term solution at 2B. ==================================== Still getting to know this team. I am looking for OF help, preferably a starting OFer. I have a collection of part time OFers at present any of which could go as I can give part-timers, draft picks, relief pitchers in return. Seem to be set in the infield and starting pitching. Don't ask about Maddux or Randy Johnson. Let talk. Mike B. in KC ================================== The Fargo Woodchippers are looking to upgrade there first base situation. They are seeking a full or part-time first sacker who can field his position and give me at least a couple of hundred at-bats. The Woodchippers could move an outfielder in return. Most logical to deal would be center fielder Ricky Otero Otero hit .273 in 411 at-bats. Anybody is available but, obviously guys like Griffey Jr. and Edmonds would be harder to trade. Take Care, GREG STILLWAGON ====================================== I have a good team that hopes to contend, however I find myself 24 starts short. Prefer a decent pitcher (solid #3 / #4) over a bonus player. I have players and draft picks to offer. Either make me an offer – or tell me who you are willing to part with and I will make an offer.

Doc Schweitzer ======================= Thunder bay is shipping the first overall pick for a top starter. Thanks, Rob ======================== Sey Hey Kids are looking for a #1 type SP or even a good #2 SP. I would be willing to part with my 1st draft pick if the right offer is made. I have way to many holes to fill at this point so if anyone is interested in making me an offer I would look at it. Bill ======================== Elko have Kevin Elster with his 24 hr's and VG rating at SS Looking for 2B & 3B Terry Buchanan =============== Baltimore has Mickey Tettleton-1b in his last productive year(24 HR, .366OBA) can be yours for the low price of a 4th round pick. Greg =================== The Hobbits are looking to trade. We currently have 3 LHRP's with room for two. Stanton has a spot locked and Orosco and Cook are on the market. Of course, if blown away with an offer Stanton could go. Also would like to move one of my backup outfielders. Kirby who is useful this year, same for Obando or Hubbard who has a few good years as a bachup in '98 and '99. Felipe Lira or Dennis Springer could also be moved. Jim Hobbits ================== I have too many guys to protect. Would like to consolidate by doing 2 for 1 deals or by trading guys with future value for draft picks. Everyone is available except Smoltz, Smiley, Valdez, Caminiti. Hal Morris, Rico Brogna, Ramon Martinez, Bret Saberhagen, Phil Nevin, Jim Eisenreich, Tony Womack can all be dealt for a good price. I'm willing to overpay (slightly) if I can remain competitive for 1996-1998 while preventing exposing quality players to P2. Don - Niskayuna ===================== Dexter has some solid pieces available looking to fill some specific needs. Available are: Henry Rodriguez Gregg Jefferies Mark Carreon Dave Nilsson Johnny Damon Not looking to deal them all. Ideally, I'd trade HRod and one of the 1B, but Im flexible. I need starting pitching and a 2B. Reasonable offers please. Some pretty good players here. =================== Seeking picks but will entertain any reasonable offers. No bottom feeders please. Greg Colbrunn Rich Amaral Nelson Liriano Jason Giambi Robert Perez Mike Trombley Rich Garces Donnie Wall Canton =================== The Lafayette Red Sox, looking to the future, are willing to talk about trading almost everyone (Greg Maddux and Randy Johnson excepted). Greg McMichael and Will Clark are most available. I want to re-build the Red Sox infield and the starting rotation. If you are a player or two away from serious contention in 1996, perhaps we can talk. Draft picks are also desired. Steve Ehresman 1996 Lafayette Red Sox ======================= Lookin to trade a 1B for help at SP.. PiR ‘Houston’ ======================== Dexter is putting Henry Rodriguez on the block. During the next 5 seasons, he slugs 139 HR's and has an average OPS of around .840. We'd be looking for rotation help, possibly a 2B, or draft pick(s) in return Peter ============================= The Arrows have Butch Huskey available to help out your power needs for the next 4 years as well as play multiple positions. He hits 15, 24, 12, 22 HR’s the next 4 years. I am looking for draft picks or starting pitching. Thanks, Rick – Indianapolis Arrows =========================== As I recover from the butt-whooping that Greg Maddux, Gary Gaetti, and Steve Ehresman laid on me in the World Series, I will console myself by beginning preparations for 1996. I have begun setting up a draft sheet using the SPB rookie lists and I have to say that the '96 draft looks thin. (For example, I got Mike Cameron with the 26th pick last year and he'd be an easy top-10 this year.) To that end, I have an excess of useful players and would like to offer for your perusal the following players and the picks I would request in return... P Mike Sirotka - Not ready yet, but a full-time starter in '98 and a stud in '99 and 2000. (Early #2) P Brian Bohanon - Very similar to Sirotka, big years are '98 and '00. (Early #2) P Mike Morgan - 83 average-ish SPB starts the next three years. (#2) P Kent Bottenfield - Full-time, effective RP in '96-'97, average swingman in '98, effective starter in '99. (#2) P Jim Corsi - 177 SPB appearances over the next 3 years - WORST era+ is 127! (#2) P Steve Reed - Great RP - at least 57 appearances every year through '04 with era+ ranging from 114 to 193. (#2) OF Geronimo Berroa - Full-time OF for next two years, ops+ of 117 and 120. (#2) 1B Mark Johnson - Plays 6 more years, but value is mostly in '96. 343 AB of 111 ops+ (.274/.361/.458). (#3) P Mark Brandenburg - Full-time RP (60 SPB G) with 152 era+. (#3) P Norm Charlton - Full-time RP (70 G) with 123 era+ (#3) P Curt Leskanic - Lousy in '96-'97 but with tons of appearances, bounces back in '97 with 4 strong years. (#3) P Pat Rapp - 6 years of full-time starts, really only truly effective in '99, but an inning-eater. (#3) OF Mark Smith - Generic in '96, has 193 AB of great offense (125 ops+) in '97. (#4) P John Johnstone - Very good in '98-'99. (70G, 132era+, then 62G, 166era+). (#4) P Gregg Olson - 60G of league-average relief in '96. (#5) 3B Mike Blowers - Good part-time production at corners for '96-'98. (#5) P Scott Aldred - Bonus pitcher with 26 start, 60 game eligibility on '96. (#6) Vin - Red Bulls ================================ Managers, I'd like to kick off the hot stove league with putting ALL Star SS Mark Grudzielanek on the block. He plays for 15 seasons with a career .289 batting Average. I have no room for him on the roster with Derek Jeter at SS. I am looking for a #2 or #3 starting pitcher that has between 5 and 10 years left to play. Let me know if you have any interest. Jim Wheeler Preble Corsairs
