The Colorado Gladiators really struggled in 2007, both on the field and off the field with usage.  The owner quit after he was penalized for over usage, and a new owner was found and the pick has been reinstated.   Many insiders believe the Gladiators will be making some big moves in the trade market this winter.  Owner Casey Siller sure has made a splash in the Bunt League when it comes to trades.  He may have set the all time mark for most deals in a season.  Will that continue in the TBBL?  Only time will tell.  

The teams best player is Hanley Ramirez, a player who may be on the move if the price is right.  Chris Young has the making of an ace for the future, but the Gladiators have many holes that need filling.  The Diamonds may also be looking to acquire some picks this year.  Diamonds owner was overheard saying, "If we can get a good package, we can make some progress in 2008.  But our players won't come cheap."  Roy Halladay has already been dealt, acquiring All Star catcher Brian McCann for the ace. 

 The Komets are looking good for 2008 with players like Curtis Granderson, JJ Hardy, Rickie Weeks, Gil Meche and Tom Gorzelanny in the fold and signed to long term contracts.  The lone tie for seeding purposes among non playoff teams was between Beartooth and Carefree.  Based on Division Record, Carefree (37-53) gets the 5th pick and Beartooth (42-48) gets the 6th.
