Re: MLB 14 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Those are some odd stats.

Whoops! I meant to say 55 RBI if that's what you're talking about.

Re: MLB 14 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Re: MLB 14 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

I'm just past the all star game in my Cubs franchise and im looking to move these player:

SP Edwin Jackson 12-5 2.60era 121 Stirekouts
SP Carlos Villanueva 5-3 2.52era 51 Strikeouts
CP Jose Veras 4.36era 30 Strikeouts 31/38 Saves
CF Justin Ruggiano. 313avg .388OBP 15hr 42rbi

These are the teams either in first or second in the division or a few games from the 2 wild card spots:

Orioles, Yankees, Tigers, Angels, Mariners, Rangers, Braves, Nationals, Mets, Reds Brewers, Dbacks, Dodgers, Padres

What could be some packages I could get? And thank you in advance!

I think you should try and move them 2 and 2 to try and get one larger fish in return than more minor pieces (unless you want to build depth).

E-Jax and Veras to the Angels for RJ Alvarez and Matt Shoemaker. Alvarez is someone you can groom into a closer and Shoemaker can replace E-Jax in the rotation until the season is over.

Villanueva and Ruggiano to the Orioles for Stephen Johnson and Brad Brach. You get a young SP in Johnson who can be your no 4-5. Brach is a nice MRP or AAA CP.

Re: MLB 14 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Just a question, I know it's unrealistic but I'm just going for fairness. What would it take from the Cardinals to get Javier Baez from the Cubs? I was thinking:

Alexander Reyes SP A Pot
Marco Gonzales SP B Pot
James Ramsey CF B Pot

I'm the Indians. If you remember my previous post on strengthening my RF, I've decided to put that on the back burner and instead add a bullpen arm. I'm thinking Jared Burton from the Twins. How does Moncrief for Burton straight up sound?

Another interesting option would be Eric Hasse for Burton. Haase is a catcher, 22 yrs old with high C potential (I bumped him to low B due to his performance in AAA) and is hitting .296 on the year in AAA with 9 HR, 51 RBIs. I think if Moncrief isn't enough he should be more than enough. Thoughts?

I've also been considering Nate Jones from CWS or Crain from the Astros.

Dunno who Moncrief is but Twins don't need a catcher.

I could also just sign Madson. Another name I'm interested in is Bastardo from the Phils.

For some reason they won't do a trade with me unless Elliot Johnson is involved, but the offer I'm thinking is Johnson, Eric Haase as the main piece (the catcher tearing it up in AAA, Zach McAllister who would be their #4 starter and is still 26. McAllister is far from special but atleast it gives them a youngish back if the rotation guy to eat innings until some prospects come up.

Moncrief is an outfielder, listed as teams #9 prospect on mlb.com for what that's worth.

EDIT: went ahead and did Haase, Moncrief, Johnson (not sure why but they wouldn't accept without him) for Bastardo.

I really don't think them trading him is gonna happen unless they get blown away with an offer, and I still don't think they would pull the trigger, but from the 3 your offering Replace Ramsey as the Cubs have a few good OF prospects

Re: MLB 14 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Orioles put Chris Tillman on the block, I can get him for Darwin Barney straight up, fair or not?

Not fair. Barney is like a low to mid C and Tillman is a low B (or better depending on his stats)

What do you guys think Josh Harrison goes for?

Thanks for the help and i think I'll do it like this instead of getting minor pieces here and there

No. If you are trying to screw the Cubs, this is not the place (see my sig).

You are going to need to add one of Taveras or Miller or Wacha for Baez.

Dunno who Moncrief is but Twins don't need a catcher.

Twins actually could use a catcher. With Mauer at 1B, everything is contingent on journeyman Suzuki and offensive-minded Pinto. Pinto is flaming out hard in real life. Behind him, they got nothing.

This is one of the reasons I was asking about Murphy from NYY.

What do you guys think Josh Harrison goes for?

Corner INF prospect. Maybe low B value give or take a half letter grade.

As a White Sox fan, Id have to say Happ or McGowan or Hendriks and a low level minor leaguer. Hawkins has incredibly poor plate discipline and strikes out an obscene amount. Im not sure of his rankings in the game, but I'm sure they are overpowered as most roster makers are rookie crazy and don't seem to understand a large majority of the guys we go gaga over will flame out or be career minor leaguers.
