Re: Brown

How about this:

You recieve Matusz, Tillman, and Britton

We recieve Dominic Brown

This is just a start.

Kirk Plum, Orioles GM

Completely out of character, I almost always do the trades I accept from this thread as the Philly GM, and do it in my own franchise. However, I want to try and not make this confusing, I do think the Phils would do this in real life, and I certainly would as their GM. I just don't think I would do it in MY OWN franchise, meaning I will still be shopping Brown as a player in my franchise. However, the purpose of this thread is to help out those trying to make deals in their franchise. So, I hope that wasn't confusing but long story short the Phils will accept that in your franchise and I will continue to shop Brown as a player in my franchise. Does that make sense?

I really hope that wasn't confusing. I did a pretty poor job wording it.

That would also be accepted, yes.

Awesome. This will probably be the one that I do. Thanks for help!

RE: ABOVE QUOTED NEGOTIATION (Suzuki/League v. Raburn, et al)

I apologize back for the delay... we've been having CPU network problems here at Tigers central.

I would be willing to deal here on either package. Sherrill and Sanchez would net you Eugenio as well. (You'd have to do it in two trades, but seeing how MY Tigers are going, and their division in yours...)

I have other SS prospects that our organization thinks are a better fit for us, so this is definitely a welcome deal.

Just to confirm, I'd be fine with...

Seattle Receives:

Ryan Raburn, Andy Dirks, Drew Smyly, and Eugenio Suarez

Detroit Receives:

Ichiro, Brandon League, George Sherrill, and Victor Sanchez

I know you said possibly Sanchez, just trying to give you a concrete answer that yes you would have a deal in this instance. Our organization definitely needs an outfielder who can step in with a true MLB bat, and getting two veteran relievers and a pitching prospect to replace the more advanced pitching prospect we are losing in Smyly suits us right down to the ground.

You can make this trade with confidence in your franchise if you so choose -- and again we here at Tigers HQ apologize for the delay in response.

Regards,

David Dombrowski (President & CEO - Detroit Tigers)

RE: ABOVE QUOTED NEGOTIATION (Suzuki/League v. Raburn, et al)

Thank you very much for your reply, it was a pleasure doing business with you. We will move forward with this trade as proposed (including Victor Sanchez). Ichiro of course holds a special place in our heart here, and we hope he proves to be a valued asset for your team as well.

Best of luck with the rest of your season.

Best,
Seattle GM


OOC: I'm looking to flip the package I'm receiving here for Brandon Belt, we'll see how it all works out.

RE: Catching situation

We have seen that yall are looking for a good young catcher. We would like to offer y'all Matt Wieters. He has a gold glove award and has great power and contact. He has a cannon for an arm, and is a great teammate. We would like Rasmus and Arencibia at least, as you guys wouldn't need Arencibia and you guys have good outfielders already. Since you guys are getting Hamels and some players like that, you need to win now. Rasmus and Arencibia both need some time to develop and I'm not sure if you can do that since Bautista is getting up there in age. Please get back to us soon!

First off, I'd rather you send me an offer, as you are initiating these talks. Second, we love Colby here. He's a five tool guy. We're keeping him. Since we are keeping him, though, we don't have room for Eric Thames and Travis Snider. If you're interested in either, let me know. Bautista is only 31, by the way.

Does anyone really care where I sent this from?

You could throw in Adam Jones and Manny Machado. Seriously, Colby is up there with Lawrie and Bautista in terms of untouchability.

I prefer the word 'Determined' lol. I really don't want to give up Rasmus. Seriously. I'd give up a kidney before him.
