3 Team Trades

Thoughts? I think that being able to make three or four team deals in OOTP would make a great game even better. The Manny Ramirez deal last year comes to mind.

Just about impossible to code AI for, that's the problem.

Three-team trades in real life aren't really that. It's two teams trading and a third team brought in to take a player from one of the other two teams or to pitch someone in, etc.

So I do them manually all of the time in OOTP. No, it's not elegant, but...I think it's a far better scenario than what AI-developed scenarios would look like, even if it were on the radar/possible, etc.

Yeah, we have had a couple of manual three-way trades in the GUBA, and it was exactly that - the 3rd team taking a dump salary plus picks/players for compensation.
