UPDATE: Many teams still available! Comment if you'd like one!
Original post
Camden Chat is doing something awesome right now, and it's called 29 Trades for 29 Teams. I spoke with Stacey from Camden Chat, and she said we should try it out as well.
The idea of 29 Trades for 29 Teams is that each team is represented by one user. The user picks a team, and makes a trade between the Yankees and the users team.
For example, let's say I choose the Chicago White Sox. I would write a fanpost titled "29 Trades For 29 Teams: Chicago White Sox" and in the fanpost would write the trade between the two teams, why I believe it is fair, etc.
Here is Camden Chat's chart of all the trades users have made so far.
Here is a fanpost example from Camden Chat.
Here is the introduction post from Camden Chat for more information.
I think this is a fun activity, but we need you to get involved.
There are only a few ground rules.
-Make the trades fair. No "Jacoby Ellsbury for Chris Dickerson" fanposts, please. For some things to consider when considering trades, check out Frank's Trade Value Primer.
-One team per user. If someone took your team, pick a different team!
-Title the fanpost "29 Trades For 29 Teams: Your Team Name"
So, if you are interested, please comment below which team you would like to take. You can write the fanpost when you want to, but please, if you pick a team write the fanpost. Not fair to others if you don't write it.
Hope you all get involved, and can't wait to see the trades!

It wasn’t really realistic or fair. Talked to the user and he wants to redo it.

I might actually do that
although I might force Bryce to change his name to a real guy’s name. Like Eddie. What the hell is this shit “Bryce”? And Cody, and Cameron, and Blake and Blair and Bent and Tucker.
Fuck Tucker, Tucker sucks

I would do the White Sox one
if you want someone to do it. There might be a few people better suited for this over at SSS, but I’m open.
If you want it you got it! Just make sure it’s fair!

I'm not too happy with everyone wanting to trade my man Eddie "time-to-shine" Nunez.

I apologize, I hadn’t updated the chart. They are taken. Is there another team you would be interested in?

Your trade proposal has to be a fanpost, NOT a comment. Thanks.

Austin Romine seems to be quite the trade chip around here.
Am I the only one flagging this guy?
Seriously, do we have to wait for the money shot or a "F*** THE SOXXXXXX!" before we ban him? Doubleteapot… BAN HIM!!
by AlohaSox on Sep 28, 2011 10:20 PM CDT
It used to be Austin Romine and Joba Chamberlain could turn into any team’s best player. Now it’s Austin Romine and Dellin Betances. Woooooo

I had to delete your post, as the post was neither realistic nor fair. It’s known that Hernandez will not be traded, so why not try and pick someone realistic?
Also, please watch the format on your posts, no one will want to read it if you don’t use separate paragraphs.

it's cool man.. didnt mean to post it
was up late that night writing and thought I had something good written. When I woke up and saw it even I said what the hell did I write.
Also I wrote it on TextEdit on my mac and copied it over to the site it was spaced out idk y the site didnt space it.
i will be more than happy to write a new post, realistic of course.

Coco Crisp is a free agent and the Yankees wouldn’t give Nunez, Betances, OR Romine to get him.

If no one is going to do the rest I was thinking about writing some of the others
I have trades for the Diamondbacks, Orioles, Pirates, Padres, Mariners and i’m still throwing around ideas for the Reds, Royals, A’s and Nationals
I think I’m going to take a couple myself actually (still need to look into the stats to see if the options I’m considering make sense) so I will let you know soon.

If anyone wants to do a second let me know, but it has to be one of a team that is not taken by anyone yet. Only teams available are
I am going to take the Athletics/Pirates/Padres off the list for 2nd timers because I might take them, so if you’re doing it a 2nd time you can take
Diamondbacks
Reds
Royals
Orioles
Mariners
Nationals
