Player upset after trade wants another trade. Too Soon?

Tim Tellean · 07-25-2008, 06:14 PM

I traded Paul LoDuca to the Orioles 12 games ago (83 games, 7/7/09 into season). He was upset with his position on my team (I'm the 'Nats) where in this season he was moved to the backup position which is okay but now I receive an email that says he's unhappy with his role (backup) in Baltimore he has started 2 games and has 16 AB in 12 games.

Seems like 12 games is too short for a player to be upset with a new team.

Tricky to tell if this is a bug or not. Was he unhappy on the morale screen before you traded him and straight after trading was he happy? He might have carried the unhappiness through after the trade.

Whether he should have done is another matter, but we're getting into the realms of human behaviour.
