Over a few days trade discussions have heated up between the Nighttime Ninjas and the Gashouse Gorillas. The speculated trade is Ethan Arvay to the Ninjas, and Mike Dempsey to the Gorillas. It is a blockbuster trade that would send one of the best all around players in the game to the Ninjas. While on the other hand, the Gorillas would receive one of the only lefties in the GBL.
In a recent statement by the Ninjas manager, Mike Kubacki Jr., he stated, "(Arvay) is one of the top arms in the league. Easily 2rd or 3rd best. Any manager in the league would want him in their rotation." He would also be returning to the Ninjas for the second time.
Since joining the league, Arvay, has posted a career .405 batting average, a 25-2 win-loss record, and an ERA just a tad above 2. Batters can not seem to catch up to his high velocity, and opposing pitchers can not seem to get him out.
On the other hand, the Gorillas would be gaining Mike Dempsey. The most effective left-handed pitcher in the league. With a short supply of lefties in the league, this could be a game changer for the Gorillas.
The trade could be beneficial to both teams, but only time will tell.
