    It would take an elite level Major League proven hitter and another prospect(s) to get Felix. If you Google some of the trade packages that teams have allegedly offered the Mariners, you'll see what the asking price for him is... Pretty steep.

    At 25, I just couldn't see trading him away when there are some good, young offensive pieces to work with. Ackley, Montero, Smoak... When the OSFM set comes out, there will be some more intriguing prospects down on the farm.

    On the flip side though, even without Felix, there are some very solid young pitching prospects down on the farm, but only Hultzen and Paxton are close to being ready. Walker is a couple years away at least.

    I just wouldn't have the stomach to trade Felix.
    Most people think Walker is the best pitching prospect in the farm. He might be close than you think. I think he gets a shot to make the squad next spring training.
    Noesi probably won't start... most think he's going to be our go-to long reliever.

      I play as everyone. I love the game too much to only play with the Sox because each team is different. And yes, every now and then I play as the Yankees. Last year I got about 20 games in as each team.

        With the Prince signing I am now even more excited to play my Indians franchise. Trying to get through that line-up this season and in future seasons with Prince, Miggy, and Vmart all plugged in there will be fun. Or not.

            Well of course lookin at my profile, the Twins. But this is the most activity in the offseason since '08, that bafoon Billy Smith was fired, and everyone around the Twin Cities is hopeful. But with the fielder signing we can only hope.

              Beaven
              Prospect... Walker, Hultzen, or Paxton (All of which will need names added when we pick up the game)

              Although trading Felix would at least give you the option of picking up some more offense to go with Ackley, Smoak and Montero.
              Yeah in real life it doesn't make any sense but for my league it will make things interesting and fun.

                    Interesting? I've always needed some form of pitching to make things fun.

                      Gotta use the Twins. I have tried other teams in the past but just can't bring myself to completing more than one game and then I go back to the Twins.

                      Plus them sucking really bad last year has me fired up to return them to the playoffs.

                        I'm just hoping like Terry Ryan said was an off year for some of our twins. If Morneau returns to old form and Mauer starts hitting 330+, we'll make a dent in that al central.

                            I look forward to playing with a AAA roster - meaning my Oakland Athletics...let's hope they rate the pitchers decently in this game...A's are never strong in this game since most of their players are usually "unknowns" or "unproven"...I'll try to work my magic again...

                              I'll play as the Rangers as I always do. I'm really interested to see on the pitching side is how:
                              A - Yu Darvish is rated
                              B - Holland/Harrison have progressed
                              C - Feliz transitions to starter

                              I think those 4 will make for a very tough pitching staff to work with and given the age of everyone, create a lot of surplus pitchers I can turn around for some younger OF to replace Hamilton and Cruz.

                              Offensively, I hope Ian Kinsler has a contact rating better than D. Yes, he hit .255 last year, but had a horrid .243 BABIP. Even though I like Mike Young as a player, I usually have no need for him on my Franchise and he is usually one of the first players to move on to another team. Can't wait for the game to come out!

                                Anyways, ill be using my Mets. It will be interesting to see the new dimensions at Citi Field this year in the game, and how it affects Ike, David, Lucas, and Jason. I will NEVER use another team, thats just me.
