Yankees haven't made a move, I can't believe they think they'll win it all with old man Garcia and Colon.

It's over book either Texas or Boston for World Series...SMH

I cannot believe the Indians got Jimenez...

Just goes to show that not EVERYONE is untouchable. IMO, the Rockies made a terrible trade just like the CPU does, so maybe its not broken after all lol.

Let's not evaluate trades until a year or two down the road when the prospects get their feet wet

Oh no, its definatley broken, here's an example just now from my fantasy draft franchise

Red Sox (me) send
RP Wes Whisler - Career minor leaguer, maybe MLB Middle Relief at best, 29yo A pot...

Mariners send
CF Franklin Gutteriez
RF Corey Hart
RF Magglio Ordonez

and they accepted haha... I think the Mariners had a few too many before they made this deal haha...

Now i'm platooning Hart and Dominic Brown in RF, Guttierez and Stubbs in LF (using Stubbs as a DH where possible) and Austin Jackson in CF... Had to send Dayan Viciedo and Jose Tabata down to AAA coz i had no room for them...

Trade logic definitly is a bit sketchy, I take a franchise and in two years have an unbelievable lineup. All the time! I think my lineup in 2012 for Dodgers was:
CF McCutchen, 2B Pedroia, SS Reyes, 3B Uribe, LF Kemp, 1B Fielder, RF Either
Ridiculous

I put it in a spoiler to not make the post too long...

Spoiler

Rotation
Yovanni Gallardo
Jon Lester
Clay Buchholz
Francisco Liriano
Jacob Turner

Bullpen
LRP Manny Parra
LRP Dillion Gee
MRP Joel Zumaya
MRP Brandon League
MRP Jeremey Jefferies
SU Aroldis Chapman
CP Daniel Bard

Lineup vs RHP
CF Austin Jackson
RF Dominic Brown
2B Pete Dogg (CAP of me)
3B Mike Moustakas
DH Drew Stubbs
1B Brandon Belt
C Carlos Santana
LF Franklin Gutierrez
SS Jose Igleias

Bench
C Derek Norris
1B Eric Hosmer
RF Corey Hart
2B Dustin Ackley

Lineup vs LHP
CF Austin Jackson
3B Mike Moustakas

DH Drew Stubbs
RF Corey Hart
C Carlos Santana
1B Brandon Belt
LF Franklin Gutierrez
SS Jose Igleias

Bench

Only Change without DH is Stubbs moves to LF, to keep his bat in the lineup, and Gutierrez moves to the bench, Pitchers spot bats 9 and eveyone behind the DH spot moves up a place...

Yeah after doing a couple teams and simming I was like "how can a team get better than this?" so I quit.

IMO, i feel nothing was worth trading for him at this point. Granted i know NOTHING about the guys they brought in, so maybe thats the reason i am against this trade.

Face it, they could have gotten more/even better prospects if they would have held him untill next years deadline. He could have shown that he got his stuff together and his output would have been more spectacular.

Pomeranz and White were their 2 best pitching prospects...maybe Colorado knows something we don't..it is awfully suspicious to deal a guy with his talent AND a very friendly multi-year contract

It is fishy but for the deal to be completed he will have to pass Cleveland's physical. Harden's deal got nixed because of medicals Red Sox saw. But Cleveland's going for the jugular and I love it. (cuz I'm a Clevelander)

As much as i despise the Yankees, i did some homework and i would have felt better if we got Montero.

Like the Denver Post said, the team feels with Ubaldos talent and contract, they could attract more teams to offer more high end prospects to fill holes. Ok so they got 2 "high end" pitchers, but what about 3rd base? There are already talks of the Rockies shopping Mark Ellis, so where is the future 2nd basemen?

The team has all but given up on Ian Stewart, yet he still wears a rockies jersey. They wanna get rid of Ryan Spilborghs, Dexter Fowler, Ty Wigginton, and Aaron Cook. Come on there have even been talkes of Houston Street getting attention and the Rocks considering moveing him, despite the closer problems of the past.

How many times can a team implode their roster and start from scratch?
