Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

I made those two trades from a couple pages back and now with Pederson to play center could I move Ozuna plus to Texas for Profar?

I don't know if Texas has a spot for Profar but he could slot into 3rd base in 2017 after Prado leaves if not sooner if I can move him at the deadline.

Ozuna would be a good platoon partner with Choo if not his replacement and he has more control left than Profar.

What would I add to Ozuna for Texas or would they not be into it?

Thanks

What are Profars ratings. Some rosters rate him higher than others.

The trade deadline OS roster. He is a 78 with a B potential.

Hi guys, I've got a question about in-season trades and qualifying offers. I'm in June and I was wondering if I trade for a FA to be (like Chapman, etc.) will I be able to make a qualifying offer in the offseason?

Nope you can't.

Then he is up to IRL, which is a good player with good upside. If he is playing well, probably adding Luis Castillo (if he is in/any good in the roster) could do it. If not make it Naylor and add on their end.

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

So in the first year of my Dodgers season, and I'm 45-27 in mid-June, but have AGon, Utley, and Van Slyke of the DL for 2-3 months ( all recent injuries). I'm really hurting position player wise as Micah Johnson has hit under .200 since Utley's injury, and Turner needs regular days off, so Kendrick never gets a day off between those two. Also I have McCarthy about to come off the DL (I set IRL injuries at the beginning of the season), plus Urias tearing it up in AAA. I would really like to deal a current big league SP of mine for a solid, veteran 2B, or someone who could fill the spot better than Johnson, while freeing up Kendrick to play some LF, some 2B, and give Turner some days off at 3B (Kike is struggling).

I was thinking of dealing Scott Kazmir, currently in the first year of a 3yr, $48M deal. He is 8-5 with a 2.57 ERA and 1.03 WHIP in 91 innings. He also has 5.64 K/9, 0.4 BB/9, a 3.75 FIP, and a 1.47 WAR. Obviously he's getting by on a bit of luck, so I would also like to strike while the iron is hot. I know this isn't realistic, but could anyone at least give me a gauge of his fair value? I'm fine with a 3 way trade like Kazmir to a contending team with a SP need, prospects from that to a 3rd team, 3rd team sends me a 2B or player who could fill 2B adequately. What are people's thoughts?

You're underestimating Ozuna. Profar doesn't even have more team control than Ozuna. I really think Texas would need to add, not Miami

I agree, Profar's ability to play a premium position though helps him (SS). Maybe add one of the Rangers second tier pitching prospects, since Miami needs pitching.

Ozuna also plays up the middle (CF). I think the Marlins would need a pitching prospect close to the show to even think about moving Ozuna

I tend to agree, although I think the ability to defensively handle SS is far more valued than the capability to play CF. I do think a solid pitching prospect would have to be added, but I also think the Marlins are so desperate for pitching, that factors in as well. From an unbiased perspective, if I was the Marlins I would take Matuella and Profar for Ozuma, with the intent of extending Profar after one year of solid production, to a team friendly deal (with his injury history, he might jump at that). But it depends where the Marlins and Rangers are at in the franchise, Marlins don't do that if they are competing.

Re: MLB 16 Trade Discussion Thread

So entering year 4. One of my 12 teams is Arizona. In off season, LaD offers me grandal and Pederson for pollock. Both had sub par seasons while Pollack had a decent year. Fair value? I took the deal btw as I was in bad need of a catcher

In back to back seasons, I've managed to land Chris sale in Seattle and Manny machado in sd.

Well you didn't post any associated information for people to use so how could anyone have responded?

A reason to use WAR to compare - positional adjustment already gives a higher "bonus" to the SS.

So if the SS and CF have similar WAR, they are about the same value according to the metric - with positional scarcity already accounted for.

Are the Marlins desperate for pitching in his franchise? I don't remember the exact post, but I'm not sure we got any info on how the Marlins are doing, which is an important piece of information.
