Some also don't seem to realize they don't have to be a rental, you can resign them.

for the record I 100% respect the opinion, but I don't agree with it

you don't always get a chance to get in the playoffs or to actually make the WS...gotta take risks IMO
Completely agree with you but ya know, its fine!

To make sure we're on the same page, I didn't mean you, I meant the person trading for him assumes he's a rental, but he doesn't have to be or that new team.

We are talking about a guy that just slashed .186/.319/.299 in August.

Or are we talking about a guy who had an OPS over 1.100 in June/August combined?

He had a phenomenal June, but does that make up for a sub 800 OPS for the combination of the remaining months?

Because there's 162 games?

If he's great in 28 and below average in 134 is that more or less valuable than someone above average for the year?

I think this is an interesting debate.

Random team history question ... for RETIRED NUMBERS, do those players get chosen automatically by the game?

Yes. They have a distinct template if done by the game. Some owners have done it themselves and you can tell. It's lame.

My favorite is big bob Kelley, the fattest player in history by far, who has a 3 digit number for some reason

I think it was 18 when the game started generating their little blurbs on the page. Other league I'm in, I ended up copying the format and just filling in for self-retired numbers or older retired ones.
