Fair concern to both of you. The fact is the trade was devoid of talent as the owner really neglected the team. So the commissioner made a few trades to try and infuse some talent on the roster. Whether that was the right or wrong thing to do can be debated. What is reported on the site is not correct in terms of trade. Below are the trades with the players that were returned for those draft picks.
Team 9 trades R16 draft pick to team 11 (Randy) for German Marquez
Team 9 trades R26 draft pick to team 3 (Dennis) for Kevin Cron
Team 9 trades R17 draft pick to team 4 (Frank) for Eric Thames and Taylor Trammel
Team 9 trades R20 draft pick to team 7 (Jonathan) for Josiah Gray, Colten Welker, and Ryan Weathers
Team 9 trades R14 & R22 draft picks to team 2 (Jeff) for Luke Voit and Amed Rosario
Team 9 trades R13 & R23 draft picks to team 8 (Jeff) for Kenta Maeda and Pablo Lopez
There's still plenty of talent in the draft pool to start building this year. It's prob a 2 year rebuild but can easily be done in this league. I hope that one of you or someone would consider joining. Our draft starts tomorrow night. Please let me know if interested. Thanks.
