I'm not sure anyone is clear on what he actually wanted or expected them to do at the deadline. He's just big mad and still doesn't comprehend what a salary dump is.

Between that, OldRed not knowing what "addition by subtraction" means, and RBC saying Keith Law lives a life devoid of worth, I'm grumpy :lol:
That's why I dropped out. Don't need the aggravation. I'd do better banging my head against a concrete wall for several hours.
So in your mind a little ole 2.706mil savings without much in return can’t be a dump. A dump HAS to be multiple years of contract for large $$ in exchange for not much??? Is this the Golden Rule definition? How about Mini Dump, would that have passed the editors?
Why are you trolling? That's an honest question.

No part of this is a salary dump... not by any stretch. I don't know why you won't show any common decency. I'm just asking one last time, cordially, for you to do so. It's not a dump, please stop referring to it as one and patronizing everyone that you engage with. You're being a complete d!ckhead at this point.
Question is
Why are you so concerned what I call it??? 8O
1. Because you're wrong
2. Because you are patronizing people about it
3. It's intellectually dishonest
4. It's disrespectful to everyone that has tried to explain the concept to you

You don't have to continue doing it, so doing so makes you a troll and a d!ckhead. Get it?
Is BDW paying the remaining 2.706mil for Helsley? No
Is he paying any money for what he got in return? No
Is there much of a chance the prospect get to big show? NO
So the only thing BDW gets out of this by not keeping Helsley to end of season…….is 2.706Mil
No if you want to ride those prospects out of A ball to Busch……enjoy
You never answered my earlier question about a few trades. Wonder why. So... why'd you avoid that? (pssst - I know why)
