MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Hi everyone. I am the Los Angeles Dodgers and I am interested in trading Yasiel Puig. I have a few guys I am interested in, and would like to try to package Puig to get, and I was hoping to get some help designing package deals for a few of them. Since most of them are top tier elite, I am also willing to trade other major leaguers too, in that package. I am using OSFM 2015 edited for moves up to now. I created it in MLB 15 and loaded into 16, so its spring training 2015.
Thanks!

Interested in:
Sonny Gray (Oakland)
Felix Hernandez (Seattle)
Yu Darvish (Texas)
Carlos Correa (Houston)
Julio Teheran and Dansby Swanson as a package (Atlanta)
Jose Fernandez (Miami)

Yea if you want any of those guys you have to give up one of Urias and Seager. And you aren't getting Correa without both AND Puig. He is an MVP caliber player with 5 years left of team control and is only 21.

I am really looking for a package for Gray, and would be willing to part with one of Julio Urias/Corey Seager for him, although I would prefer to not obviously haha

lmfao @ Urias or Seager for Sonny Gray or Julio Teheran

I could see the Mariners for Taijuan Walker+. Cardinals for pitching. Rangers for Gallo or Profar or Mazara +.

Why at Gray, just curious? Because I think I remember you saying last year when I wanted Gray as a Red Sox you said I had to give up Devers, Owens (who was at a higher value at the time), and a couple others. And I can understand Teheran should have edited him off the post.

Any suggestions for the beginning of a Padre franchise, who should I get rid of/go after?

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Cleveland could be a target depending on what you are looking to get back

I would like to get a starter or outfielder to start restock the farm system should things go south. Cleveland would be a decent destination but realistically I don't know if they would pull that trigger on trading a guy like Aiken for a closer. That's why I thought Dodgers but was wondering if any other contender would be interested.

Haha no way does Britton bring anything like Aiken in a deal (from any team). Probably looking at Bauer. Anderson, Kaminsky. McKenzie, Hillman if you want younger, MAYBE Sheffield.

I'd take Urias or Seager over that package easily. Gray's a nice piece but 6 years of a guy who might be better than him soon (or Corey Seager who isn't Bryant but he's not that far off) isn't worth.

He was just the first guy that came to mind. Bauer would suffice as well. I mean look at the oriole farm system. LOL

What would it take to get Judge to Colorado

I think maybe something like Britton and Sisco could work for Bauer, being a starter Bauer with good potential (though he still has some mental things to work on to reach it) for a RP Baltimore would have to add a little. Indians could use some better catcher prospects, though I don't know what Siscos arm is like or very much about him.

Thanks for the suggestion. Sisco's defense is ok but is getting better as he was converted from outfielder I think. His bat is good and should adapt well to the majors. Plus he is only 21. If Wieters leaves after the season which I think he will, he will probably compete for the backup job next year with Caleb Joseph being the starter.

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Any ideas of how to get Conforto to the A's?

I know this is far from realistic, and I usually never make trades in the first season of my A's franchise unless there's a deadline need, but just humor me because Conforto is my favorite player for personal reasons.

I figure Barreto would be a realistic headliner of a prospect package. Or it could start with Reddick. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks!

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Hey guys,

In July in my MLB 15 Franchise, planning to play out the season and then transfer over to 16. I'm trying to complete any real life moves that make sense (if the Royals were out of it for example, Cueto would have been dealt somewhere else). That said, my Jays are 3.5 games up in the division entering the month, and moves for Tulo and Price are on the table.

However, Buehrle's been hurt and Sanchez has been terrible as a starter (go figure). With Stroman still out until August at the earliest, Daniel Norris has slid into my rotation and played very well to the tune of a 3-1 record with a sub 3.5 ERA, 9+K/9, 3 BB/9 and a 1.2 WHIP. I still want to deal for Price, but with Norris being a valuable contributor it doesn't make a ton of sense to move him in the middle of a playoff race.

Basically, I'm asking if there's a way around including Norris, who's a 71 OVR, B POT SP. I can't include Hoffman because I'm planning to replicate the Tulo trade exactly. That leaves me with Sean Reid-Foley, who's a B Potential but much less developed and Max Pentecost, who unlike real life is a B potential playing well at catcher in A-ball. The rest of the trade would stay the same.

Also adding a wrench is Price's play, which isn't as good as real life Price at the time of the trade. Real life Price had 9-5, 2.53 ERA, 8.5 K/9, 1.8 BB/9 and a 1.11 WHIP at the time of the trade, game Price is 6-5, 3.10 ERA, 8 K/9, 2.5 BB/9 and a 1.20 WHIP. Obviously not a huge gap, but the strikeouts being down has me wondering. Other contenders are Royals, Angels/Astros, Nats, Cards, Dodgers. Royals will get Cueto so I might be the only serious suitor.

TLDR; Want Price without giving up Norris (71, B). Willing to include Max Pentecost or Sean Reid-Foley instead, both B potentials in premium positions.

To Jays:

P David Price

To Tigers:

C Max Pentecost/P Sean Reid-Foley (sub 60 OVR, B Potential)
P Matt Boyd
P Jairo Labourt
