GREAT NEWS: It's trade time. The All-Star break is only one week away, which means all team owners finally have a chance to get rid of their dogs. Barbara and Whimp can dump Orlando Cabrerra. Lisa Gallagher can send Aramis Ramirez packing. And yours truly, Rube Furrow,can finally banish Octavio Dotel to the ash-heap of SLPL failures. WHAT WERE WE THINKING! . . . The All-Star break is also a good opportunity to think strategically. Are you a hapless team owner with no chance of catching up in your division? You might want to think BONUS POINTS! At the moment, George Dunne's Dinger's is languishing in 47th place, but he could end up winning prize money if he maintains his Bonus Points lead through the rest of the year. Please follow the Mid-Season trade rules below . . .

At mid-season, during the All-Star break, you will be allowed to trade one (1) hitter and one (1) pitcher. You will receive the first-half stats of the player you trade and the second-half stats for the player you trade for.
