    Come on Clint. Time to hop on the banana boat. Burt Steele has saved you a seat right between CP, Beard, Melo, and EG. with 17-18 million a year to boot......

    Come on baby! Leave BJ Armstrong alone and come home to those who love you!

    Dumb question: IF - If true (veteran's minimum), do they have to use all/part of their MLE to sign Hartenstein, Melton & [maybe] Edwards? Or how will they be signed?

    There's always Corey Brewer!!!

    No but seriously, Trevor Booker might be a nice fit. I'm not super familiar with him because he tends to play on irrelevant teams, but I think he could be a good fit for Capela's backup.

    The vet min? That's pretty good then!

    Losing Luc looks even more dumb now, though.

    This would be really cool. There's nobody worth the MLE on the market, so I'm on board with bringing over Llull if we can.

    Regardless if you hate Melo or like Melo at Vet Min. it is worth the gamble 100 times out of 100.

    Considering that Melo is a 3/4 (3.5?) and Gordon is a 2, and our biggest holes are at the 3/4, and Melo is temperamental.... :cool:

    Cause Luc aint worth the MLE and Morey didn't feel like overpaying for him after already overpaying CP3.
