While I like your original sentiment (I always try to be competitive as well and don't like tankers), I've got some sad news for you.

In a couple of weeks, real teams in the MLB are going to "throw in the towel" for this season and start dumping salary and dumping players for prospects. I HATE this new "trading deadline" type of GMing, but it is very much a part of the real world. Selling tickets is secondary to cutting costs.

IMO we are best off abandoning that sinking ship that is Off Topic to the rats infesting it and just starting a whole new Baseball Forum from scratch.
