Tom Emanski is looking to dump the gangley San Francisco Giants outfielder, Hunter Pence in an effort to become a more fundamentally sound ball club.
Following the recent wager between owners Gregg Angier and Michael Angel regarding the final standing of their respective teams, Tom Emanski owner and manger Angier is on the prowl. A trade block update has just been posted to the league homepage saying that Tom Emanski is looking to trade a starter for a first baseman.
An anonymous source close to the situation told us that Angier is looking to significantly upgrade his lineup
by unloading Pence in favor of his trade partner's best player. Angier's attempt was nothing short of desperate. Citing a more flexible payroll as an advantage his prospective trade partner would gain.
"Diversify your portfolio a little bit and give yourself some cap space to play with," Angier said in an email that was shared with us by our source.
The unsolicited prodding by Angier can only be linked back to the $40 bet made between him and Friendly Fire owner, Angel. Both managers appear very confident they have a team more poised for a deep playoff run as Angier's squad has placed second in the first two seasons of the league and Angel's expansion team, Friendly Fire exited the tournament early in 2013.
