Can you get to a point with a negative International Budget?

Sure. If you're bringing more in from selling the slots than you spent on scouting, player development, etc., then the int'l player market becomes a profit center.

Ulbaldo makes the most sense to me ...Phils save 5 Mill and get the lottery ticket AA reliever and int slot money

Ubaldo can probably pitch about as well as Hellickson in the NL.

#Orioles still trying to trade Britton and Brach even as they attempt to finalize Hellickson. Need help in rotation to get through season.

Does an International Slot Bonus get a physical?

Well if a major leaguer is included, they have to shower, be called into Buck's office, etc. That takes time if you do it with class.

Hey Ubaldo you've been traded to the Phillies. Don't worry they don't even want you to show up.

Well if Kenny is right it will not be a dull weekend.

How would that make sense for us? We gotta be dumping a contract that extends beyond this season.

Hellickson helps us get through the season...we clear Ulbaldo and save 2.5 of Hellicksons remaining salary in exchange for a fringe RP prospect and slot money.

I could see it being Miley or Castillo. In the latter's case maybe we see sisco

Hard to say.  Hellickson is a rental, unless we are planning on keeping him, god forbid.  He just doesn't move the needle, except the one into my arm.

Less than 5M...1.8 or so.

Get through the season? What does that even mean?.. who cares who the SP is at this point. Sell and stop worrying about wins and losses this season, it's about the future.
