What I've been doing is just punching in players stas to get the values and add em all up.

Say I'm doing a 3 for 2 trade involving 3 position players and 2 pitchers, I would try to get the value of the first two position players (because there's only spot for two position players at a time) then erase the data of one of the player and get the value of the third guy. Some for pitchers.

It's much easier than I try to explain it, but I hope you get what I'm saying though.

I get what you are saying. Essentially, my point values are the same concept just scaled down.

I'd post the trade chart in the Tips and Workarounds thread, that way everyone can see it.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will do that.

BTW, a real trade happened in MLB today. Mark Ellis to the Rockies for Bruce Billings. I decided to check how the trade value points would work out with my spreadsheet. Ellis was 3.6 trade value points and Billings was 3.9. A very even trade. Just thought that was neat. Doesn't mean my sheet is always correct or the standard-bearer.

Sooo, I have been trying to trade for Carlos Beltran in my Astros franchise, and cant get the mets to agree on a trade for the life of me! Any one have any success in landing Beltran without having to give up your best player? If so please share any packages you put together....
I also tried with a Pirates chise and no luck....
