    If the Angels finished 2014 as a non playoff team, do you guys think Hamilton would realistically get traded?

      I would say it depends how far out they finished, if they barely missed out nay. If they had a disastrous year oui. Or if Arte received a wow type of proposal, think he pulls the gun. Anaheim is usually the one to ship prospects out though ha.


      But highly doubtful tbh, Arte wants to win. Unless scenario 1 occurs, say they finish 10+ out.

      Edit: Also how Hamilton fares and all

        Absolutely. What did you have in mind? Hamilton to the Jays?

          Yeah. We don't actually have outfielders for 2015 lol. Figured I could QO one of Melky and Colby and then deal for an OF. I'd be eating most of the contract.

            Seconded. J-Ham is moveable. Makes sense to continue paying Albert's albatross and Trout's extension while giving some room to add a FA SP. I think it'll cost you a couple of solid prospects.

              Solid, non-elite guys? I can do that. What kinda spects do you think the A's would want?

              Non elite guys I would move:

              Dalton Pompey
              Roberto Osuna (close to elite though, wouldn't add much more if anything, would really rather not)
              Sean Nolin
              Alberto Tirado
              Mitch Nay
              D.J. Davis
              Andy Burns
              Dawel Lugo

              Nolin is a great fit for LAA. Think Pompey + Nolin is enough?

                Nolin + Pompey for Hamilton would work.

                That's what, a top 5/10 guy (depending on who you talk to) plus a guy who's close to being top 15? Sounds good to me.

                    Wow. Heard that Pompey had been playing well, but I didn't realize it was that well. Lol

                    Still think the trade is fine.

                      153 wRC+ in A+ with gold glove defense and 28 SB will do that lol

                        I'd assume that if J-Ham was still worth elite prospects that LAA would want to hold onto him.

                        As far as what "solid" means, that is really contingent on Hamilton's performance and your level of desperation. I'd say a pair of guys you consider Top 15 prospects at an area of need for LAA (anywhere but CF or 1B) would suffice.

                        In this vein, I think Pompey + Nolin is fine if J-Ham is putting up average #s and those guys are still projecting nicely (no POT decreases or weird stats).

                          Idk if you guys saw this, but I found it interesting



                          gives the site and all to the past 10 months


                          If this has been posted I apologize, didn't see it anywhere but what better place to post it than a trade thread.


                          Also would a package starting with Urias for Starlin & Samardzija be fair?

                          Rizzo for Taijuan straight up? Almost to the All Star game will have an in-depth look at possible trades I'm considering since well I've sucked.

                          edit last part meant for fairness, not going for realism. Will have numbers up later today. 3/4 games away from the break.

                            On the spreadsheet, what do the varying value columns mean? What is the difference between each value column? Thanks.

                              Prospect. Preferably MLB ready in 2 years.

                                The Red Sox have some B potential prospects at the catching position. Blake Swihart and Christian Vazquez are both young, good catching prospects. What do you guys think it would take to get one of those if I'm the Cubs?

                                Or maybe Gary Sanchez from the Yankees?
