Really struggled over this one. I've debated moving Cash for a big package for a little while. Banks' SS D has deteriorated lately and I'm not moving Banks so a move to 1B seems imminent. Cash is going to be a stud (already is, really), but one player, especially at a position that isn't that hard to fill, isn't going to turn things around for my team. There was no way for me to re-sign Thompson, although I would have liked to, and Schmitz was just rotation filler for me as I wait for my young arms to be ready, so neither really meant anything to me. In exchange I get 5 cost controlled guys. I think Pinson can be just as big an impact player if not more than Cash, although he's a number of years away. Shaw and Lary I think both can be middle of rotation starters and they have the Loyal rating. I think Amaro's eye along with his glove will let him play at SS and I think Lenny Green can be a starter for me. I actually really tried to pry just a bit more and we worked on this for about a day, but this was where we settled.

Please put Lary in Schmitz spot in the rotation. Put Lenny Green as my starter in LF in place of Westlake. Amaro and Shaw can go to AAA and Pinson to A ball. Make Richards my starter at 1B vs. righties. Call up Rudy Regalado from AAA. Make Gardner my starter at 3B vs. both righties and lefties and I'll adjust after the sim.

Thanks and GL to DETROIT.

please put Cash at 1b vs LHP&RHP and hit 7'th vs RHP. 8th vs LHP
Thompson at 3b vs both LHP&RHP. 6'th vs RHP & 6'th vs LHP
Schmitz just call up to the majors. No need to slot him.
