2012 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

[AC]

Once again looking to deal David Price (7-3, 3.27 era, 67 K, 36 BB) in my Royals Franchise. I am looking at:

Rickey Romero: 7-5, 2.79 ERA, 94 K, 38 BB
Gio Gonzalez: 4-2, 5.01, 46 K, 18BB

The Phillies offered me Roy Halladay, that is pretty unrealistic and I honestly I don't have the payroll space for 42 million over the next two years.

The bottom line I guess is that I want a semi-young lefthander with a few years on their contract at a semi cheap cost (under 10 M).

Which one do I pursue and how much in prospects are they going to cost me?

Honestly, I wouldn't be picky with realism here, cause no matter what you do, it'll be unrealistic.

Does anyone really care where I sent this from?

The second trade isn't happening in your dreams lol. The first trade is perfect, though.

Re: 2012 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

I'm just trying. I mean I don't think I gave up as much as the Bundys and Schoop for him before in my padres franchise, and you guys helped me make that trade. Just trying for a fair trade. It is my franchise too, so it doesn't have to be realistic, it just has to be fair.

And I know your just trying but seriously stop ... Your going thread to thread and it's just annoying were telling you what the minimum would be so you gotta stop trying to cop out and give up crap for a great pitcher

For the one with the Astros, I wouldn't mind seeing you get an additional C in return.

As for the Jays one, you'd probably have to swap Francisco for another B even though I like the thought of him being included. What's the name of that 3B prospect for the Braves...Salcedo? Is he a B prospect? Go Prado, Pastornicky and Salcedo for Rasmus and Dwight Smith. Or you swap Salcedo for a pitching prospect

Re: 2012 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Phillies Give:
Mayberry JR.
Biddle
Brown

Tigers Give:
Castellanos


Do you guys think that is enough to just get Castellanos? Or can I try and get someone else in the deal too?

How would you change the second trade?

Re: 2012 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

I'm Looking to add a left handed bat off the bench, any suggestions? I don't have any internal options that are ready for that role.

Phillies Give:
Mayberry JR.
Biddle
Brown

Tigers Give:
Castellanos

Don't see Detroit as a fit for Mayberry but Biddle and Brown is a great foundation. My opinion though but how about Kyle Kendrick to give them an experienced arm that could slide into the no 5 spot of their rotation or pitch in long relief.

I think that's a good deal.

How would you change the second trade?

I highly doubt that the Jays would trade either of those guys.

Ok that sounds good, and yeah Francisco was included because Brett Lawrie is on th DL

Oh and if the Tigers are in contention, I could see them re-acquire Polanco to play 2B

Simmons and Prado for Rasmus
