He is asking for his annual trade. Way to help the trade value.....Now that his contract is shorter and the trade kicker down maybe he will get one.

the trade kicker is down?
It goes down every payday, it is 15% of the remainder of his contract. WWhen he was asking for a trade 2 years ago a team would have had to cough up somthinglike 4 million to give him before the season started. It is now down to little under 2 mil.

And then he said he would quit again (that they wouldn't have eight players dressed). And I notice he started *again* tonight.
Ruben better hurry up if he's going to make a run at Kook of the Month. It's sad. He's starting. As you mentioned, he might be mildly attractive to other teams with only a couple more years left on his contract.
