If you're unable to acquire the talent you need through the Amateur Draft or Free Agency, trading offers another avenue to improve your team. Here's how trading works:
Proposing a Trade:
- Go to your team's "Trades/Free Agents" page.
- Select the team you want to Propose Trade to.
- Choose the players you want to send and receive in the trade - you can select up to three players to send and three players to receive.
- Click the "Propose Trade" button.
- The other team's owner will receive an email notification, and the trade proposal will be posted on the league's Transactions page.
Pending Trades:
On the "Trades/Free Agents" page, you can see all the pending trades involving your team.
- Any trade proposals from other owners will be listed here.
- You can cancel a trade proposal you previously made by clicking the "Cancel" link.
- You will be able to Accept, Decline, or Counter any trade offers.
Completed Trades
- When a trade is accepted, it is processed immediately.
- If you're trading players currently on your Active Roster, minor lineup changes may occur.
- Players received in a trade with no Active Roster experience will be added to the Low Minors.
- If they have experience, they will be added to either your AAA or Active Roster based on your team's composition after the traded players are removed.
- A player involved in one trade proposal cannot be part of another - you must cancel or decline the existing proposal to include them in a new one.
- You can have multiple trade proposals with the same team simultaneously.
- Trading is limited to human-owned teams within your league - you cannot trade with computer-owned teams or teams outside your league.
- Releasing a player will cancel any pending trade proposals involving them.
- Trade proposals cannot add additional salary to a team that will be over the salary cap after the trade is complete.
- Trading is only available until August 31 of each season - after this date, you must wait until the start of the next season to propose trades.
