MLB 17 Trade Discussion Thread

Re: MLB 17 Trade Discussion Thread

You have Riley coming, don't give up your future DP combination with Swanson. How is KC doing in your franchise? How about NYY? We can get you a 3B for next to nothing (that will help) to hold the hot corner down until Riley comes up late next year and makes you forget about Chapman (he's gonna be really expensive).

I'm 22 games in. Royals and Yankees are both lingering around .500 like me. It's early to shake things up but I probably should see how things are close to the deadline. I'm just growing tired of Adonis Garcia. I'd love another left hand bat,like Moustakas. Hopefully the Royals (my favorite team) fall apart.

Re: MLB 17 Trade Discussion Thread

That doesn't sound like a bad deal. Would substituting DeShields Jr. in place of Profar work? They're the same age (24), both B Potential, DeShields has less service time and they're both producing around the same right now.

Comparison:

Profar: .271 Avg | 8 HR | 32 RBI | 0 SB | 225 AB | .987 Fielding
DeShields Jr: .267 Avg | 2 HR | 15 RBI | 10 SB | 176 AB | 1.000 Fielding

As far as pitching, I think I'll go ahead and pull the trigger on Hughes for Perez straight up. Minnesota gets some cap room and young pitcher with a lot of experience but still a lot of room for growth. I get a veteran pitcher who is pitching lights out this season.

You could swap DeShields Jr. for Profar, I'd only do it if you feel you need to pay more. To me DeShields Jr. > Profar. If it's close to the deadline that could be more appropriate though.

Re: MLB 17 Trade Discussion Thread

This is about where I had him at earlier today. I said 2 B's (in context of playoff possible teams) given he was having a career average year which puts him in the 2 WAR vicinity. With 2 years of arb left, there is surplus there and like you said, fits well in TOR.

I don't want to stray too far from OSFM rosters with the minors ratings so when you come back, give the POT ratings and we will be able settle on his value pretty quickly.

Conner Green (68 OVR, B potential) and Sean Reid- Foley (66 OVR, B potential) are the only B potential guys not in the rotation currently. Or Gabryszwski who's stuff looks pretty good but is a C potential 60 OVR. I know Reid-Foley is highly thought of, probably too much?

Re: MLB 17 Trade Discussion Thread

A little help please

Excluding Reyes, your #2-5 prospects would get the attention of any club. As TEX has been popular today, how are they doing in your franchise? If they are out of it, Hamels could be an option (locals have said Darvish may not be resigned buy if Hamels money is not there, that could change the scenario). "Cheaper" (trade value not money) lefties could be Chen (MIA) or Holland (again TEX has to have fallen off the map).

With the currency you have available and are willing to spend, the market is practically wide open. In an effort to try and not make every STL fan mad, pick a name or two and we can put some prospects to it to make a deal.

I'm good with Green + Gabryszwski (boy, that's a mouth full) as I would bet Gabby (I just gave him that nickname) is probably a 79'ish' POT in the actual roster. Unless a TOR fan jumps up and cries foul (where is AC when you need him?), that's a deal.

Haha sounds good. I almost picked a different prospect just so I didn't have to type that. 😂 Also any TOR fan who thinks something else would make sense im open for suggestions.

Holland is with the White Sox now, just FYI.

Thank you very much for your response.

Its real early in my franchise (still April) so every team is still right in the thick of it. I waited until the OSFM rosters dropped to start this franchise and I can only play 1-2 games a day.

So with that said I'm eyeing Quintana as a lefty but that may be to steep an asking price in order to get.

As far as position players go I'd love to get Longoria or LeMahieu.

Re: MLB 17 Trade Discussion Thread

What's the value for junior guerra? I would like to pick up someone to play third base cuz shaw doesn't play well for me there.

I'm still fresh in the season and would wait to make a move but I'm just trying to get a picture so I can be done worrying about trades.

Thanks again

You're shooting for the moon with a legit lefty and those type of position players. Also, I'm an idiot...Holland (that's what I get for trying to get a response out fast for someone that had to ask twice...sorry).

You mentioned contact and defense. I'll add speed to that and put D. Gordon on your radar. But like you said, let the season play out a little and that will give you a better idea of buyers/sellers.

Agreed that getting any two of those players is a long shot I was more or less asking what would it take realistically for the cardinals to acquire one of those players. You think if I give up Wong and Bader that'd be enough for LeMahieu? I love Gordon just wasn't sure if a trade for him was feasible.

If not Quintana what about Matz, Price or Paxton?

So I have force trades on for those trades I find in here that work. Even with force trades, Minnesota won't deal Hughes for Perez. Anyone know why this is happening?

Finances and/or injury would be my guess.

LeMahieu for those no, just no. Matz the Mets aren't giving up at least not this year. The Red Sox are to all in after the Sale trade to want to trade Price as well.

Now Paxton I could see you work on something out for him. Seattle has already showed they're willing to deal, and I saw Walker with more upside than Paxton especially after his reinvention late last season.

I'm in game right now so can't see the roster but a deal for Paxton could definitely be set-up. I would say 2 B's one SP, one position player, and any C potential guy since Paxton's a lefty.

Can't get Quintana and keep Reyes. No way at all on Price. Paxton would cost a fortune since the Mariners are in it.

You basically can't get a #1 and keep Reyes. You could get a fringe #2 if you put a package with Kelly and Delvin Perez. And I think you asked about Wong and Peralta earlier. They aren't real valuable. But Wong has more value
