Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
Didn't make it clear. What if I am at the deadline. I'd never make a deal this early.Neither team does it. You are in April. And the only way the Nats trade Strasburg is if they are out of it at the deadline.
Words from the great Theo Epstein: It’s hard to make a trade in April. As a rule, you don’t want to. It means something’s gone wrong, and you usually have to overpay.Come hang with me on YouTube! I stream/make videos on a variety of games from sports, to action, to adventure!

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
If that was true then Jagielo+ should be worth Gallo. Which we know it isn't.
I think it'd have to be a Marlins/Jays or Dodgers/Red Sox kinda deal."Twelve at-bats is a pretty decent sample size." - Eric ByrnesComment

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
Smyly was the gem of their David Price deal. I doubt they would deal him for a DH and a couple of lower level prospects. They already traded for C-Dick who is a great hitter for them at DH.Drew Smyly just went on the Trade Block for the Rays; they're seeking a 1B and C.
I'm the Indians and have thought of a package of Carlos Santana, Francisco Meija, and Mitch Brown. Using the Best roster of course OS.
What would it take? Is this a decent package?

On top of that, the Indians already have a plethora of SP options. It is significantly more likely the Indians trade one of their starters for a bat than trading a bat for another starter.Comment

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
I would say with a year like that he is worth an oldish mid-c rated prospect, because right now he is just pitching out of his mind, and who knows if its sustainable.Watch me game on Twitch!

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
Makes sense. Never trust a knuckleballer.
What about Clay Buchholz value?
10-1, 2.72 ERA, 1.16 WHIP
With the year he is having, I figure he can bring in some worthwhile value from a contender.Comment

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
Ok, so I started a franchise with the Texas Rangers, and Joey Gallo has been raking all season so far (end of May) and I think I want to get rid of Beltre (old and makes a good amount of money) for someone like Severino from the Yanks, or Strasburg from the Nats.
What do you think it'll take to get one of these two guys?
PS: If Severino I would also like to get a mid B outfielder prospect.
Thanks.Comment

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
Neither one of those guys is worth a 37 year old 3rd baseman. Those guys (depending on stats and division races) are worth a prospect of Gallo's stature. Because as we all know at the deadline prices are crazy, especially for ace caliber pitchers like Strasberg.Ok, so I started a franchise with the Texas Rangers, and Joey Gallo has been raking all season so far (end of May) and I think I want to get rid of Beltre (old and makes a good amount of money) for someone like Severino from the Yanks, or Strasburg from the Nats.

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
Should've mentioned that both pitchers are doing pretty bad so far (both over 4.9 ERA) and teams are last in their respective divisions. Beltre is doing pretty good (.279 AVG, 11 HRs, and 29 RBIs) in 42 games.
Would this make it easier? If so, how much easier?Comment

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
To get Strasburg from the Nats you'd have to give up prospects, Beltre doesn't fit anywhere there with Rendon, Turner, Murphy, Zimmerman all locked up for awhile. If they are out it they'd Def want to stockpile for the future instead of adding expensive, aging pieces.

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
Probably not that much because it's still early in the season (Mid-May, I think). Severino is still under team for 5.5 years (2022 is when he hits FA for the first time). And neither one of those guys are moving in Mid-May.Comment

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
July 9
Tampa offered me Erasmo Ramirez for Alexi Ramirez.
I'm the fourth worst record in baseball because I am pretty much tanking this year. They are first wild card 1 game back in the east.
My Ramirez is hitting .299 5 HR 32 RBI 5 SB
Their Ramirez is 6-7 4.20 1.34
Cost controlled pitching for a guy I probably wont resign works for me but is it it fair? They are currently fielding Brad Miller at SS .261 5 HR 14RBI and Tim Beckham .231 1 HR 8 RBI.Comment

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread
With that type of year I would say he is worth low/mid B prospect, or two high C's.Watch me game on Twitch!
