    Can I set to force trades during my franchise mode, or only when I first set it up?

      Only when you first set it up if my knowledge serves me. I dont know why it is this way or why we cant change the DH rule after a season of play, but here we are

        I wasn’t too far in so just restarted with force trades on.

        I‘m playing as the Reds and sent Senzel, India, and Iglesias to Cleveland for Lindor since I’d seen that they’d been trying to trade for him anyway.

        The trade tool you linked (thanks for that!) said I overpaid slightly, which I was happy to do since I had to include Iglesias just to get the budget to work. Does this seem reasonable though?

          Whit Merrifield to the Redsox? Would Downs, Casas, and Groome suffice? Or is that overpay?

            Everyone keep in mind there is a search feature for the thread where you can find old deals discussed (this was one). 1 of Casas or Downs, 1 of Duran or Jimenez, and Groome as the 3rd piece would suffice. Casas and Downs would be too much

                Looking to trade Kevin Kiermaier in the offseason since he has an average year & Manuel Margot is doing really well for me (+ much cheaper & younger).

                Currently a few games past the ASG, stats are around .230 AVG, 5Hrs 30RBI.

                What would be his value in the offseason with 2 years left @ 9.3M? He’s 29 79OVR now.

                Also, which teams could be interested in the Offseason. I’d be looking for prospects 18-22 YO

                Thanks

                  That seems like a fair package.

                    The Rockies offered me SS Brendan Rogers straight up for Josh Van Meter.

                    This seems ridiculous but would it be realistic for them to trade him for a fair package?

                    Seems like he’s a pretty highly rated prospect and the Rockies don’t seem like they’re in a position to be trading away players of that kind.

                      I could see them moving Rogers but it would take a haul. Honestly they would probably want Lodolo + for him and I don't know that I would do that. It might be possible and not out of the realm of realism but it would take a high quality young pitcher going back their way.

                        I probably won’t bother then.

                        He was one of a handful or redundant vets I have on the block to see what I can get. I’m not really looking to give up any more good prospects.

                          The way you described Van Meter is exactly why you won't get anything for him in a trade. A "redundant vet" doesn't move the needle and no one will give up assets for it.

                            So im the cubs and playing in 2021.
                            Im in dire need of a CF or RF. Currently having Almora JR and Heyward manning the positions. And as you all know they wont cut it. Im willing to depart with about anyone accept the core (Bryant Rizzo Schwarber, Baez is on the block) and Hoerner(2b of the future for me) and Marquez.

                            Im shooting for the stars maybe, but im looking at Bryce Harper to get him out of philly. Because they are trash in my playthrough. Last year they went 64-98 and this year they are not much better projection to be the same or even worse. Im able to eat his full contract and think its nice to have him partner up with Bryant.

                            Also looking at maybe Kiermayer, Mazara, Buxton and Robles.
                            The Rays and Sox are contending and the twins and nats are slowly falling apart. Tho the Nats are barely holding on to the 2nd wildcard spot

                            Also anyone know any trades for Baez? He is a rental and i need some prospects. He had a good year last year and currently having a okay year near the 1st of july. Actually leading in the GG for SS atm

                              This is gonna be long winded, a lot of moving parts. Bryce Harper is in the contract range that Stanton is in and is near unmovable, but since you want to know, a deal similar to the Yankee-Marlin deal would be Heyward, Abbott, and Jack Patterson.
                              Robles and Buxton are untouchable for both of their clubs. Robles is the future of the Nats next to Soto (rebuild or not) and Buxton is a former #1 the Twins have no incentive to give up. Mazara was just acquired and if they're contending that's also a no.
                              Kiermaier, however, could be had for next to nothing so Zack Short or Justin Steele should be plenty for him.
                              Finally, I had to use a deal similar to the Machado and Betts deals for the Dodgers which would return a headliner prospect in the 30-50 range, a 2nd prospect in the 70-100 range, and a lotto ticket

                                My RTTS giants just pulled off this trade -

                                Giants get: Nate Pearson
                                Blue Jays get: Kean Wong, Kevin Gausman, Tim Beckham


                                I should feel ashamed in myself If I allowed myself to keep this trade right? xD (I keep multiple save files)
