[Yankee151]

2 players available

RF/LF/1B Chris Chambers: Been hitting for a while now. Versatile and can fit in any lineup for cheap http://utopia.allsimbaseball9.com/game/lgreports//players/player_9617.html

3B/LF/CF Music Bradnock: Also a good hitter, amazing defender at 3B, Can fill in two of the OF spots. A bit more expensive http://utopia.allsimbaseball9.com/game/lgreports//players/player_8466.html

Fix your lanks.

 

[OU11]

Anybody need MR help?

 

[Orlando]

I may

 

[OU11]

I may

You want great or good?

 

[Orlando]

Who you got available? It would probably be a couple sims before I'd want to make a move. My pen had a bad spring and bad first sim.

Zhou or Burks are two that I'd rather move. Yi is pissed he isn't a closer so he'll probably demand a trade soon so he is another I'd throw in the mix. Definitely fine waiting a few sims too.

[Orlando]

Cool. Both those guys interest me and I probably have room for one regardless of how my guys pitch.

 

[OU11]

Well we can talk about it in a few days, I want to see how Paco does against AAA competition. I'd like to slot him in as a MR or SU guy if he comes out firing in AAA. With those three pitches he should be a monster in the pen

 

[Orlando]

Are you flipping him to the pen in AAA?

 

[OU11]

Are you flipping him to the pen in AAA?

No he'll start in the minors, but my pen is deep enough to bring him up and save a little cash in the process

 

[Orlando]

I might have to take the same route with Crash in A ball. Im hoping he may add some stamina since he is young, but it probably wont happen.

 

[OU11]

well 40 is plenty to go at least 6. Assuming you have a decent pen to back him he can start. I've never really looked to see how long Paco usually goes, that's another reason waiting a few days is okay with me. If he can routinely go 6-7, I might wait another year and try him out as a SP.

 

[Orlando]

I have him at 35 stamina. He averaged 4 and 4 2/3s a start last season. His control isnt there yet though. I just worry he will make a lot of starts tired. Luckily he is durable. I'm going to keep him in the rotation until at least AAA though.

Chad ruined me for low stamina pitchers. Dude would pitch 7 innings regularly.

 

[OU11]

Yeah I'd wait until he gets his arm going before judging his IP. In A, Paco was average and went 5 per start, and increased that to 5.14 last year. His ratings went up 5-10 points since last year so I'm hoping he can get that to around 6 but if he can't I'll just have a beast in the pen.

 

[Lloyd Carr]

Would be willing to listen to offers for CL Jamie Lee

 

[Orlando]

On that note, I need pen help.

 

[Yankee151]

I heard Lloyd is selling a closer

 

[Lloyd Carr]

I'm not 100% certain I'm getting rid of him, but I'd entertain an offer.

 

[Orlando]

Lloyd are you selling a closer?

 

[OU11]

Anybody have any closers they dont want?

 

[Lloyd Carr]

Actually, I might just keep him. Part of me wants to get rid of him since it's the last year of his contract and I don't really want to resign him when I can move another guy into his spot and bring up another MR from the system. At the same time, maybe it would be in the team's best interest to resign him and keep my 3 man closing setup the same for the next year or two.

 

[OU11]

On that note, I need pen help.

As long as you actually need a closer, I have two. If you need pen help, they will just turn on your like assholes in a few months for not being a closer.

 

[Orlando]

Yeah I can slot one into closer since both of mine suck right now. Burks mad?

 

[OU11]

I don't think he is yet, but he will be. Actually I think he kept his cool most of last year, Zhou is the one who got really pissed off.

I hate when half the pen thinks they're a closer. Sucks.

 

[Yankee151]

I still can't believe Pedro Gonzalez has been performing the best from the DLS trade so far. I'd offer one of my pen guys but they're so inconsistent

 

[Orlando]

I preferred Burks just because he was on a contract year, but it seems like I need some help regardless. Burks and Zhou aren't pitching great either though.

 

[OU11]

Because they aren't closers. Zhou was mad as hell pitching close to 5 last year, played him at CL the last month and a half and he dropped to whatever he dropped to.

If you want Burks I'll put him at closer for a few sims if you want to see dat ERA+ drop

 

[Orlando]

Naw where you pitch him isn't going to change my mind. Just don't know what to give up for him.

 

[Gooksta]

I have a serviceable catcher in AAA

http://utopia.allsimbaseball9.com/game/lgreports//players/player_9776.html

he isnt getting any playing time, figured I try and find a place for him to get some PT

anyone interested?

Ill take a prospect, pitching preferrably.. or a pick 5-8 - or whatever you feel.. list offers

 

[doh]

I have a 3B about ready for the WBL and am wiling to trade my current 3B who is making the minimum and about league average (2 WAR last two years). His name is Hersek Ertegun.

I also have a bunch of decent LFs if anyone is interested in one. A few good defensive/average offensive types.

I am looking for prospects/picks/cash.

 

[OU11]

I need to start paying attention to these 1-2 star guys. I have some 55-55-55 dude in AAA that is killing it and have never seen his player page until just now.

Btw, I went and checked out that 3B just so I could see your logo doh

 

[OU11]

If you'll need pitching, it looks like I have plenty. They won't wow you with stars but I have a few that could start but have 35-40 stamina, and a few with higher stamina that are worth trying out. The top 3 in AA are the only ones off the market.

This just makes me more mad I gave up the 7th pick to @jdlikewhoa. I haven't been fleeced that hard since I started trading with gator in the UBL.

 

[Orlando]

Thats why I basically handed Zhong to Yankee. I just wanted to see the guy start. There are some fun low-star prospects out there.

 

[Gooksta]

@ou-11 what pitchers are you willin to shop? any interest in the catcher?

 

[OU11]

@ou-11 what pitchers are you willin to shop? any interest in the catcher?

All of them besides the top 3 in AAA. No WBL unless its worth it, and only barron/lopez would be traded there.

I have some WBL level catchers i signed on mlcontracts so no need for him

 

[doh]

If anyone wants a rental SP Danny MacDermid on my team is on the block. I have a RP in my pen who I want to start soon/want to save money on MacDermid's salary.

Also again I have a league average (maybe a little ahead) 3B making the minimum if anyone wants to trade for him.

I'm looking for a SS, picks, cash, prospects, RP.

ALSO: If you can take on the salary of my backup catcher (making $5m), I will attach a pick/prospect. I'm trying to get rid of salary.

 

[Yankee151]

What pick or prospect for backup c

 

[OU11]

I'm thinking about moving Clinch for future money reasons. I don't really need to, but I hate not having financial flexibility and Wonger is younger so Clinch is the guy I'd move.

Anybody interested? I don't know what market value is for him, but barring injury he'll be good-great for his whole contract.

 

[Orlando]

I'd take him, but not sure I can afford the whatever I need to send in return.

i cant afford his contract.. or I would trade for him

 

[Orlando]

Anyone have good relievers, a good hitting SS or C?

[Orlando]

What you looking for in return?

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Think RG3

 

[Orlando]

Neither are worth that based on the website. I'll see what my scout says.

 

[jdlikewhoa]

In all seriousness though, I'm much less willing to give up Sawyer than I am Kim. For Kim, I'd need a solid pitching prospect or a high pick

 

[OU11]

RG3 deal for those two

 

[Orlando]

Yeah that's for the best. I wouldn't give up much for Sawyer based on his track record and being an average catcher. His bat could be legit, but his minor league track record says this season may be flukey. I'd want to keep him if I were you.

I'd like to deal for Kim doe.
