Give up taillon grossman and bell for
Machado and profar

I'll see if I can do that one after my game is over. But they are really good prospects and it would be unrealistic to get them.

If you do the first trade then how about trading Cole and Marte for Shields

I like Shields, but I really value Cole as my future ace, and Marte has been tearing it up for me in the MLB.

Who knows big name prospects get traded all the time, if you wanna do it that's fine. It's atleast a fair I'd also get another B player back as well

I tried that 1st trade for Machado or Profar but they weren't interested. I can however get Lindor but I can't seem to get them to give up another B potential guy. They would also do it for just Lindor even if I got rid of Grossman, but I want it to be realistic. What do you think?

Re: 2012 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

I needed more pitching for my mariners because of right now in sitting at 65-42 with a 3.5 game lead over texas and its only august 3rd. so i had to make a last move right before the deadline which was.

M's gets:
A.J Burnett

Pirates get:
Miguel Olivio

i already had 3 catchers so i thought i should get rid of him and keep jaso and montero of course. but i needed more pyxing cuz my pitchers keep blowing games for me.

I don't really consider Montero or Jaso very good catchers but I guess this ok Pirates prolly wouldn't do it but it's not too bad I'd prolly add a B prospect in there

Assuming the Pirates are out of it in ur franchise, why would they want Olivo?

Re: 2012 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

I apologize for all the "realistic" trade questions, but the A's are willing to give up Jemile Weeks and I would have to trade Neil Walker, Garrett Jones, and Josh Bell. Thoughts on this?

That's not too bad but I'd take out Garret Jones who is useless and put a B prospect in there. I don't see the As trading weeks though

I don't think Weeks would be untouchable, really no player that ever plays for Oakland is. I don't pay enough attention to the A's to gauge how high they really are on him. Is he a A or a B on the game?
His ceiling isn't even what Rickie's basement was I don't think.

Re: 2012 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

A couple of pages ago, I said that I was thinking of going after Dumpster with my Royals franchise, but after some mulling I decided against it. I'm now a couple days away from trade deadline and wanted to get some people thoughts on a couple ideas.

First, I decided that I'm going to go after Matt Garza. The Cubs are 30 games under .500 and I find that it's pretty realistic that they would trade him. I'm willing to overpay a little if that's what it takes to get him. Now I was just curious what it would take to acquire him. Another thing I was mulling was going after Hamels. I don't know if it would be realistic though. The Philles are currently 15 games under .500 and 11 games back. From what I understood, IRL the Philles would be willing to trade if they were out of it, as they probably wouldn't be able to resign. So in essence, would the Philles trading Hamels be realistic and if so, what would it take to get him?

At this moment, no....in the future, most likely
