"Hey, Alex? That guy you just put on unconditional waivers has been my third best hitter. The one you demoted has been my second best SP. And the one you outright released had been my third best SP. Can I keep at least one, please?"

We started 25-17. Since then, 13-45.
I've been playing the same way. Since I'm in the 1940s, my GM trouble is more with trades than waivers and free agency. I get that it's part of the game but maybe at least asking me about a trade that includes some some high farm arms for a 32 year old SS when my middle infield is already depth-heavy? And then, based on the GM personality or whatever else, they can either agree with what you told them or go against it.

Of course, a few times, they've made a trade that actually helps, so I guess you take the pros with the cons haha.
