That "something else" is a method of grouping all 32 franchises in a Hardball world into one of three classifications that are often referred to around the trade deadline (and at other various points in the season), those being: buyers, holders and sellers. While I will save you the long-winded version of this calculation, because that's truly what this boils down to, the CliffNotes version is as follows: Buyers are teams projected to win 92+ games in the season of interest  Holders are teams projected to win 81-91 games in the season of interest Sellers are teams that project to win 80 or fewer games in the season of interest For our current season here in Steinbrenner, these are the categorizations as we approach 7 real life days to go before the Tra
