Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Honestly if I was a Red Sox fan and they dealt Benintendi for Gray, I'd be a Yankees fan

That escalated quickly ...... lol

Is that just because your a fan or that's over pay ?

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

I'm not really sure how to answer that. I like Benintendi, so I'm a fan I guess? Idk, I like Benintendi more than I like Gray thus I don't like the deal.

Nah those Soler numbers are weak. But with Billy Burns in center you think Almora is a fit ? And please don't call on how bad Gray is doing. Wouldn't be trading for him if you thought he is not a number 2 or ace

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Is that meant to be 0.55 WAR? If so, that's about league average which is nice

Yeah i like benintendi too for the 2017 season, thats why when I was looking to acquire a LF to improve the lineup and add some pop I decided to pass on the Sonny Gray trade and go after his teammate.

Redsox Trade
LF/C Blake Swihart .234 AVG, 5 HRs 25 RBIs
1B Sam Travis .283 5 HRs 29 RBIS
SS Deven Marrero .249 AVG 12 HRs 38 RBIs


Athletics Trade
Khris Davis .257 AVG, 18 HRs 46 RBIs

Yes, must have been a typo.

Javy has numbers similar to Soler since they are bench guys.

188 AB 9 hr 23 rbi .239 Avg ..43 War

Oh okay thought he was a full time starter with those numbers. Guess you have Schwarber off the DL

** Still don't think it's a fair deal for Gray tho just my .2 cents

Id go with what WTNY suggested, but plug in Soler for Schwarber. I think Soler is hitting well enough to be the centerpiece, .277 with some power is about what you'd expect from Soler.

Soler + Underwood + Vogelbach --> Gray.

Way too much for Khris Davis.....although I do like the fit. Hed to good things in Fenway. Take Swihart out and this is OK.

This has been mentioned on the thread before....but whats up with guys just giving away Blake Swihart? I understand the real BoSox sent him down to work on playing OF, but he's got less than 400 MLB plate appearances. Its way to up to give up on him. Wasn't he practically untouchable last year?

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Thanks a lot guys, I really appreciate your opinion, and insight.

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Would a package based around Christian Yelich and honestly anyone not named Fernandez, Gordon or Stanton be able to get me Manny Machado in my Marlins franchise? Ideally I'd like to send Ozuna instead of Yelich but I figure Yelich to be the more valuable of the two. Hecheverria just isn't my cup of tea so I'd be more than willing to send him the other way to open up SS for Machado.

I was thinking something like:

Marlins send:
Christian Yelich
Adam Conley (Or insert worthy prospect)
Adeiny Hecheverria

Orioles send:
Manny Machado
C-level prospect

Obviously it's not likely in the slightest that Machado would be traded so I guess I'm looking for fairness over realism though if I see that the Orioles are contending when I fire up the save I won't do the trade.

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

What would the Indians need to give up for Gray ?

lol figured I get in on this to find out his value

To get Manny your gonna have to cry looking at the pieces your sending away. Can't be done with what you have there.
