Brunnoce,

Since the Orioles are most likey out of it (or going to be), and since their pitching stinks, how about a deal that sends a pitching prospect to BAL for M. Reynolds?

How many years does he have left in this game...contract wise, I mean?

He has 2 years, ill see if i can make something work out.. thanx a lot for the tip man!


Edit, tried to make a deal, but no go only player that interests them for Reynolds is Cahill, im not willing to disrupt my incredible rotation

Anymore ideas?

Re: **All Trades Discussion Thread** 2011 Edition

you have the best rotation in baseball, probably the best in the past 15 - 20 years. what would you use strasburg for ?

Seeing as Hamels would be part of the deal, Strasburg would fit right in. I think I like the trade. Ibanez is older and Madson is still in his prime, but doesn't have many years left at a top level. As for realism, no, it's not realistic, because the Nationals, if at all, would ask for the entire farm and coaching staff for Strasburg.

Re: **All Trades Discussion Thread** 2011 Edition

Hey guys, im playing with the A's as usual, i was thinking about getting a better 3b than Kouzmanoff(more power specially), id be willing to ship out Sweeney(OF), Outman(SP), McCarthy(SP), Cramer(SP) and evan C.Carter(1b)...

Who do u guys think i could/should get for them?

What about going after Jed Lowrie? I know his natural position in SS but he's played basically every position in the infield and is a great defender with an improving bat. In Boston, they have Scutaro short-term and Iglesias Long-term so he'll be on his way out anyways.

Just a though for a cheap, productive, young player

Lowrie can't possibly have more power than Kouz can he? I would advise against trading Carter though. There is your future power source. By the way, where does he come in power wise and potential?

Re: **All Trades Discussion Thread** 2011 Edition

I'm the Tigers, I might try to get Polanco back. I'm going with Rhymes at 2nd (struggling) and Guillen at 3rd base. Peralta at short. Guillen can play 2nd, but I don't have a real shortstop that way. I need a solid number 2 hitter also, Polanco would fill a lot of needs for me.

2B: Rhymes, Guillen
SS: Peralta, Guzman
3B: Guillen, Peralta, Guzman

I have a lot of flexibility, but Guillen is a butcher at third. Too many errors. I'd like him back at 2nd, Polanco at third.

Cole, if you master his motion(as I did), can be 2 times as good as Strasburg, he's young and is an excellent change-up pitcher as well. Ibanez still has pop and I can easily hit 25HR's with him . I would decline the deal in my opinion.

Re: **All Trades Discussion Thread** 2011 Edition

Just made a trade in my Yankees franchise with the twins, Yankees get denard span francisco loriano for curtis granderson pitching prospect mario villa and ronnie belliard, I was surprised the twins agreed to this, but I couldn't resist.. fill a hole in the rotation plus I get a legitimate lead off man

Re: **All Trades Discussion Thread** 2011 Edition

OK gents, need some help.

In my Rangers franchise, I'm having some issues. Let me say that I do like the new trade AI, but it's causing a bit of frustration right now.

Mitch Moreland is sucking it up pretty bad at 1B mid way through May. The Cards just put Pujols on the block (shocker) and I offered the following package.

Mike Young
Darren Oliver
Colby Lewis

Now all these are positions of need for StL. But they have no interest. I've tried to mix and match, but no dice. The ONLY person that even registers on their "interest" meter is Elvis Andrus, and I ain't trading him.

I even tried to throw in an "A" talent fielder or pitcher and nothing.

I'm a bit confused because even when the interest meter is over half full, my offers get rejected.

Thoughts?

Re: **All Trades Discussion Thread** 2011 Edition

My team is ranked 2nd in batting,3rd in pitching, 12th in defense.

I want to improve on my 1B but i dont know what to get in return.

I have two 35+ year old guys at 1B who both still hit for alot of power. I have JD Drew now as my bench player after getting Hart, so I need to trade him.

I want a 1B under 29 years old who hits for alot of power. Who could I get for Drew? Once I trade him, I could probably trade one of my other 1B for a C.

The best C I seem to be able to get for a one for one deal for Drew is Montero.

Try giving them what their asking for like if their asking for a RP giv them a relief pitcher and use Mitch Moreland cause Albert can play first over him anyday.

Adam LaRoche Maybe, he has some POP.
