Well, it looks like "cleo", who was supposedly running Philadelphia, was just there to try and screw things up. He lowered his payroll to the mid 50's and dropped all expenses to zero.

He then signed FA's Jason Kendall, Chan Ho Park, Ryan Klesko, Moises Alou, and pehaps others to long term contracts. He was able to sign all these top free agents by over bidding for them.

He then dealt these players , plus a few others, to a computer run Detroit to for nothing. He is now the top bidder on the last big FA, Frank Thomas, and is, of course, bidding 10 more points than he is asking for. I guess he really wants Thomas, right?

He has obviously tried to ruin the league by getting all the big FA's, signing them to long term deals, and sending them to a computer team.

This guy has to get kicked out of the game and things have to be set back, or everyone in the league has completely wasted their time and money for the past month.

The Philly manager has destroyed free agency and the integrity of the league by raiding the FA market and overpaying for studs, then trading them (14 players over threee trades) for :
Roger Cedeno.

PLEASE try and do something to reverse this, or else this season (and a few to come, presumably) will be wrecked for all who try to play for fun.

I did the Cedeno deal, but it wasn't with guys I just signed. I traded Chipper Jones in a typically tough negotiating session with the computer. Philly has just been Signing guys with over-priced bids and then trading them for nothing in return.

must be removed. I think he actually traded for NOTHING.
His points have not even gone up. He gave them away!
If nothing is done here,
It may be time to quit.
