My team crept briefly out of 8th and made it up to 4th before plummeting back, and we've been stuck solidly in 8th for the last 1-2 weeks. I'm having trouble imagining this team competing for 1st this season, so I think it's time I consider moving some guys. Fielder, Mauer, Price, Rios, Jennings, Milone, Altuve, Janssen, and Frieri are available and could potentially really help a contender, and there're a bunch of smaller names too.
I'm looking to add 2 keepers, preferably hitters but not necessarily. I don't really want to do a massive dump trade as I do want to compete for the non-money spots going forward, but I can definitely improve your team. Also, I dumped a ton of salary early on in the season, intending to have room to add some guys at the end. As it is, I'm close to the salary floor and will probably need to take on some salary dead weight in most trades. Figuring out the right combinations of players may be tricky, but I'm a motivated seller...

So it begins.
Also, is the league page down for everyone or just me?
The page is up for me.
I'm interested in both buying and selling at this point, so feel free to make offers in either direction.
Nevermind, up and running for me now.
It was down for me for most of the morning but is back.
I feel slightly bad about posting this the day that Andrew sets out on his drive, so I probably won't hurry to do anything so that he has a chance to be involved if he wants to be. But it's definitely time to start exploring.
With the ASB right now there is a bit of time to work things out without him getting totally screwed. That said, trade to me, now!
Dump trades will be interesting this year. Feels like there aren't as many top shelf keepers that could be on the market.
Yeah, I think Spencer's right. We really all came into this season with pretty great crops of keepers. I don't think 2014 will be the same. Should also mean a lot less of that damn keeper inflation that I forgot to account for in my draft board, too!
I'm in the same position as Taylor. Could be buying or selling depending on what offers are available. Either way, I'd like to get something done sooner rather than later.
Although, if I'm selling, you'll need to have some dead weight salary to offer me, since I'm only $3 above the floor.
