What's the need for Dee when you have DP and X? DP Isnt getting traded. He'll retire in Boston

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

From the sounds of everything, should just do a fantasy draft yo get everyone you want. But I'd say Espinoza to start.

Ahah I know it looks like I'm trying to move every1 but I'm just looking at who I have and evaluating my options, just like a real GM would do.

No chance Espinoza is the start. If Gordob wasn't popped for PEDs I would agree with you. Maybe Kopech. Also I can completely see the Sox moving Pedey. They have Moncada, who they haven't moved position wise, and is going to be up by June of next year at the latest. Hell he could break camp with the team next year. And they would move him position wise if they were going to do it.

Kopech and who else, maybe a B prospect?

This is where we start to blur the lines of reality vs the game. In the game, it's starts with Espinoza +. In the game he's not popped for ped. So you have to take that in. If you say but you have to take in real life aspects into the game where he is indeed banned for ped, then you also gotta look at that no one is surplanting DP at second until he retires and this trade talk is mute

Can't have the best of both worlds. If you are going to value him based on the PED suspension, you shouldn't play him for 80 games. If you are going to trade for him and play him immediately you should value him as if there is no suspension. You shouldn't lower the cost because of the suspension but immediately put him in your lineup.

Ye I agree, would Espinoza and a B work then?

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Hello, Long time follower of this but don't really post a lot. I try to keep quite on all the discussions on trades. With that being said. I'm working on my White Sox franchise and I'm trying to add another starter or two. I'm not sure how I feel about Latos. I added Buehrle as I'm a big fan of him but I still want one more. Any suggestions I don't care about accurate but just someone that is good to pitch with.

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Would Boston take on a couple guys from San Diego?

They definitely could use SP Andrew Cashner (82 OVR - 8-4 3.30 ERA 1.16 WHIP in 114.2 IP & 104 K). Then throw in a guy like RF Matt Kemp who could provide a potential bat to their lineup. He's struggling in 320 AB's only hitting .216 with 7 HR 32 RBI 2 SB. He's on pace for a career low in OBP (.274). Change of scenery might benefit him and the Sox can take on his larger contract.

What would Boston have to give up for Cashner? Pomeranz is pitching horribly and rated low. Shields is pitching the best out of the SD pitchers. Would he be in the mix?
