Trading

If you are not able to get the talent you need in the Amateur Draft or through Free Agency, you can turn to trading.

Propose a Trade

To propose a trade, go to your team's ''Trades/Free Agents'' page, select the team you wish to propose a trade to, and click the ''Prepare Trade'' button. Select the players you wish to send and receive and click the "Propose Trade" button. You can select a maximum of three players to send and three players to receive. (To select multiple players, hold down the SHIFT or CONTROL key when clicking.) Once you propose a trade, an email will be sent automatically to the other team's owner, and a message will be posted on the league's Transactions page to notify other owner of the trade proposal.

Pending Trades

You will be able to see a list of all pending trades for your team on this page. From here, you can cancel a trade you previously proposed by clicking the ‘Cancel’ link. Also, any trades which other owners proposed to you are listed in this page. To accept or decline a trade that was proposed to you, simply click on the ‘Accept’ or ‘Decline’ link.

Accepted Trades

When a trade is accepted, it is processed immediately! As a result, you can expect minor changes to your lineup if you are trading players who are currently on your Active Roster. Players received in a trade will be added to Low Minors if they have no Active Roster experience. If they have experience, they will be added to either your AAA or Active Roster, depending on the makeup of your team once the players you sent in the trade are off your roster.

Additional Notes on Trading

• If a player is already involved in one trade proposal, he cannot be a part of another trade proposal. You will be required to cancel or decline the existing proposal to include him in a new trade proposal.

• You can have multiple trade proposals at the same time, and to the same team.
  
       *

• You will not be permitted to propose a trade that brings any team involved in the trade over the salary cap.
