The death of a trade
by Tom on Jul.09, 2007, under Fantasy Baseball
I mentioned earlier a few of the suggestions for good trading practices. One of the main reasons I wrote that is because I’ve been burned and frustrated countless times by other owners who don’t keep the same rules in mind. And while it’s one thing to say “well, that just didn’t work out”, if it happens too often then that person in your league becomes one less person you can approach for a deal. And if he does it to too many people, he becomes a pariah in the league, and essentially useless the day after the draft.
Watch carefully as a deal that seemed to work for both parties dies a horrible death, and think about what could have happened if the other party had followed the guidelines I talked about earlier.
