Trade Wars Discussion

[NML]

I made a trade with you with my first. I got a future ace (hopefully) on the minimum, solid #3 starter on a great contract, and a starting middle infielder on another team friendly deal.

 

[Lloyd Carr]

Well, if I've learned anything from this, I'll end up getting a 5th round pick for Kim.

 

[Lloyd Carr]

Turn Wong into a relief pitcher, OU. Then make the trade.

Paco/Jorge/Ersoy? That was for a 1st? I got fleeced.

I'll bring up Okada and Torres and turn Nico and Wong into a Closer Setup combo in the playoffs

The WBL market never makes any sense. Been trying to trade Gomez forever. No one will bite and he has a killer contract.

I want to but just don't want to pay what he's worth. OFs have always been hard to move, but that should change in the WBL. There aren't many elite OFs or OF prospects. There are a few but not like the UBL. My 5th OF was better than Salazar in the UBL

 

[NML]

I've got like four outfielders too many haha

1st and 2nd round picks apparently have no value either

 

[Orlando]

It's worked out for me because the Alchemist is a slow and a better DH than OF, but I was shocked that at $6m, and 28 now 29, a guy like him didn't generate more interest. I'll probably move a SP this offseason if there is a market.

Good OF are definitely not as readily available as they were in the UBL like you said. It's like my only depth though, from A ball to the WBL.

 

[Orlando]

Well all you offer up are 5th rounders

 

[jdlikewhoa]

In other news, I'm willing to give up my 1st and 2nd rounder next year. Fleece me

 

[OU11]

Orlando ill grab a SP for a 3rd

 

[Orlando]

@jdlikewhoa so ambiguous though I don't want to fish for your picks. Any time you make an offer it's a 5th.

 

[Orlando]

Orlando ill grab a SP for a 3rd

Stop it.

 

[Gooksta]

Anyone have a SS they want to dangle?

 

[Orlando]

I feel like there are no SS in this league other than the guy on the Tulips.

Villareal and Zwager are gonna be stars

[Lloyd Carr]

@fignuts

Any interest in getting rid of Jarrod Humphrey?

 

[Orlando]

@Lloyd Carr I got a couple who might interest you.

Not WBL ready: http://utopia.allsimbaseball9.com/game/lgreports/players/player_12307.html

Ricky isn't really even a SS, I think he is only a 55 there. SS are hard to come by in this league, like CF

 

[Orlando]

55 is serviceable though with that bat.

CF is tough. My best prospects are CF thankfully. Gutierrez should be much better than he has been.

 

[doh]

I have Farid who is a 65 DEF in CF and getting better… anyone want to get fleeced for a CF?

 

[Orlando]

He a 75. I'd be interested if I didn't have Sawyer/Weber/Mouton

 

[OU11]

I want didier

 

[Orlando]

Yeah he is one of my good spends in amateur IFA. Weber and Sawyer should be ready sooner than later. Which is nice timing wise since I probably can't afford Gomez.

 

[OU11]

Im mad saucedo cant play center. Really wanted that to happen

 

[Orlando]

Yeah he lacks range. He will probably get up to 50, which would be ok for a fill in depending on how his bat develops. If he mashes he can make up for the bad defense.

 

[doh]

If he lacks range too if you have LF/RF with range your overall team defense will be fine.

 

[OU11]

@Yankee151 is that the dude with 35 stamina? Great trade IMO

 

[doh]

Is this trade for real or just the fleecing of the century?

 

[OU11]

I'm telling you guys, you give me grief but Yankee will blue blanket the hell out of you

 

[Yankee151]

I think he's going to be good, even if he only throws 6-7 innings an outing he'll boss for all 6 of those innings. Plus all those picks are late round so I'm going to try and package them for one high pick or a good MIF guy (Aguirre pls?)

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Lol. He might come out on top in the trade. But it's not a fleecing

 

[doh]

When you can get a 22 yo at AA with 6.9 K/9 for two 1s and a 2nd, you can't pass that up.

 

[NML]

Good lawd

 

[jdlikewhoa]

In hindsight I should've tried to pry Rowe away from him. But in reality I didn't give up too much. I still have a first this year. I don't value that 2nd much or an end of the round first next year.

 

[Yankee151]

Rowe's not for sale so it's a good thing you didn't try

 

[Orlando]

JD asked to get fleeced and he obliged. Yankee will probably muck it up though drafting some guy with good work ethic but no talent.

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Naz and his 3 ++ pitches are gonna dominate the SL

 

[Yankee151]

About to have OU fleece me for those picks so it's all good

 

[Orlando]

If they ever develop, maybe. They don't dominate AA.

 

[NML]

Rowe's not for sale so it's a good thing you didn't try

That's unfortunate, I was gonna make an offer for him. Want him to come home

 

[Orlando]

Don't Yankee this trade. You actually won.

 

[OU11]

Don't Yankee this trade. You actually won.

Quiet, you

 

[Orlando]

Good luck figuring out value. WBL stars are worth thirds and AA guys are worth two firsts and a second.

 

[Yankee151]

That's unfortunate, I was gonna make an offer for him. Want him to come home

You're welcome to make an offer but we're on opposite sides of the spectrum right now. e.g. Skates Rankin is on the wrong side of 30.

 

[Orlando]

That's about what I gave up for Bernal, but I value him way higher than that pitcher.

 

[Yankee151]

I could have gotten Bernal? ffffffffffff
