I give Lew Ford.

I get Garrett Anderson.

No collusion, and I thought I was taking a risk.

Help! Sry... :-o

How can I explain it to them?

I don't even know which side your opponents think is getting the better deal. I like the Ford side, myself. But CERTAINLY not vetoable.

Defintely not vetoebale. (On a side note and for comparison sake): A trade just got through in my league:
Takatsu and Nevin
for
HMatsui and Anderson

Of course GA's SUPPOSED to be better. But pre-season rankings aren't worth much in August and September. He was dropped in two of my leagues, a 10 team and a 9 team. He has what must be considered 'significant' health concerns and hasn't produced even when in the lineup. BA alone isn't cutting it.
Have you both pleaded your case to the league? I have found often that once both sides justify their positions, others in the league tend to back off of the veto.

Definately not vetoable.

I'd rather have Ford myself. If they do veto it, then don't be too sad.

yea you might want to try to explain to them that preseason rankings do not mean anything.......

Give them a link to this thread.

Multiple vetos? If they were like the case you presented involving GA, I would seriously wonder about the other owners and would not continue next year. Sounds worse than some of the nonsense found in public leagues.
