Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

Been a weird first two years with trades in my franchise. Year one had White Sox trade Tim Anderson to Texas for Odor. Pittsburgh traded Polanco to Miami. Year two had Pittsburgh trading Marte as well. MadBum and Frazier signed with KC and that's just the deals I remember

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

I have searched the thread but couldn't find anything about it. With the rumors of Pirates dealing McCutchen, what would a deal in your opinion look like assuming he had similar numbers in my franchise as he did in real life?

In my old braves franchise earlier this year, I traded Albies(B), Rio Ruiz(B) and Allard (B) for him and. most said that was about right

I am actually starting a Braves franchise as I want to carry it over as I for whatever reason I always have to start my Oriole franchise over each year with the current roster. Albies and Ruiz are both A potential prospects in the OSFM World Series roster that I am using. Would I be safe to assume that one of those guys plus Allard would be enough? Or do I need to include another low B-High C potential prospect?

You could always wait 48 hours and we will likely have the real deal. Also, Ruiz should have no business being near an A potential

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

I'm thinking about starting an Angels rebuild to play through the winter and maybe transfer over. What realistically do you see as the trade value of Simmons and Calhoun? (great name for a buddy cop show btw)

Both look to be my most valuable, expendable assets who could net me some much needed position player prospects. How much do you think each are worth? I know Simmons was traded last year by the Braves, but was what they got about his value? As I struggle to trust the Braves front office's ability to get fair value in a trade tbh

I know I'm a bit biased by being a Braves fan but is this real? The only bad trade they've made recently was the Olivera deal.

Just a lot of deals that don't make a whole lot of sense to me lately, particularly with veterans, but I am a Mets fan though so I may be being slightly bias. (only time will tell I suppose with a rebuilding project) To me at least, it looked like you got pretty short changed in the Simmons deal

EDIT: forgot about the Shelby Miller trade, that was undeniably a blinder

Yeah, after I saw a deal was imminent I figured I would wait to see what the deal is going to be.

What should Ruiz be rated? Low B-potential because of his contact numbers?

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

I know we're all waiting for the actual McCutchen trade to find out the real value, but I have both Reynaldo Lopez and Luke Weaver in my system, am I in the ballpark if I propose a trade of Lopez + Weaver for McCutchen?

I think both Weaver and Lopez are good enough to be the second piece. Someone with higher upside. Mateo or Torres would need to be the headliner.

I think Frazier is safe since he is redundant with Meadows.

Yeah somewhere in the B to low B range. He hasn't been close to an A potential guy so far in his pro career

Ozzie Albies (low A)
Drafted SP (3rd round, 18 yo, high B)

I made a trade that most viewed as good with my braves for Gray earlier.

Braxton Davidson
Rio Ruiz
Sean Newcomb

That doesn't seem like a lot for Gray. But I believe his value is largely based on his performance. If he's playing like he did irl then yeah ur package seems abt right. But if he has a solid season like in my franchise I'm not sure that gets it done.
