    Sale is 4 A's.

    Felix Hernandez is 3 A's and two high B's.

    We had a guy in here earlier asking about the exact same people you have, he was Texas too... weird lol. Small world.

      lol, that's odd, I play some but not alot. Have alittle one that keeps me super busy and work too. So I have some time. Farthest I've made it is maybe a month then I got distracted with everything. I determined though to do at least a year. I like to play all 162 major league games too.

        I'll probabley just go with Lincicum. I'm a fan of him and the crazy way he pitches.

          Good choice, he's a good pitcher. If he's playing well, two A's and a B. If he's playing OK, an A and two B's. If he's playing poorly, an A and a C.

              Honestly, I'd wait until June, but before the season- 2 A's and a B.

                What would be the value of Jordan Walden? I was thinking a couple of high C's?

                The red sox have him,Bailey and Tanner Scheppers at the Closer position so I figured it's possible they might get rid of one of them. Walden had been stashed in AAA for all of last year so he's the odd man out.

                  Two mid C's.

                        I'm curious as to how you all think I fared in this deal. I feel context is important, so I might be a little long-winded, but bare with me please.

                        My rosters were the Sony's rosters from Memorial Day (when I started the franchise).

                        I play as the Indians, at the 90 game mark (July 17th I think), while 1 game up on the Detroit Tigers for the AL Central lead, and in need of starting pitching (27th in MLB in ERA) I traded 3B Lonnie Chisenhall, who has been my starter at AAA, he has a potential rating of A, for SP Dallas Braden as well as 2 minor leaguers (AAA catcher and AA RF) with very good stats but both were D potentials.

                        Obviously, this was more about getting Braden for me. The Athletics had him on the trade block and were woefully bad so the deal makes sense for them to deal for a prospect. Braden could potentially solidify a starting rotation looking to find some consistency outside of Ubaldo Jimenez's All-Star season. Braden's in his 5th year of service, so he's be a free agent after 2013.

                        Thoughts on how I fared? Its not going to faze me/make me change how I think if you say anything like "you're an idiot! you got fleeced", so feel free to be completely honest.

                          Honestly, there were better pitchers you could've gotten other than Dallas Braden for a Lonnie Chisenhall.

                              i can check and make sure later, but off the top of my head I believe he was 2-5 but his ERA was in the low 3s.
