    In April in my Franchise and am looking to rebuild after this season. However, I really want to move Youkilis before the end of the season. Is this a good idea:

    Tigers Get: K.Youkilis 3B(84/B age 33) and S.Heathcott CF(71/B age 22)

    Yankees Get: N.Castellanos LF(74/A age 21)

    Keep in mind I have Mason Williams in the minors for CF(70/A age 21).
    And where would Youkilis play in Detroit? He's not gonna play over Cabrera or Fielder....If you include Mason Williams too, the Tigers might consider this..But Castellanos along with Myers and Taveras are the best OF prospects in baseball right now. Not gonna come cheap!

      Rasmus? To the Cardinals? Lolno.

        Absolutely. Wouldn't have to be a stud prospect. Something along the lines of a high C

          Well it is unrealistic in the sense that the Reds wouldn't trade Chapman for any reason whatsoever irl. Ditto for Castellanos really.

          However, if you really want to do the trade, I think Chapman (as opposed to Romero) sounds MUCH more fair.

                Well the issue is this is actually for 2K not The Show, and all the OSFM prospects aren't in that game. So, Rasmus is my suggestion based on only MLB rosters essentially being in play.

                    Oh, crap, didn't read that part. Bleh, if he can't give up farm guys.. ugh... Santos + Izturis? Bonifacio + Happ?

                      Not your fault, lol. I actually saw the same question in the 2k forum which is how I knew. It's a lot more difficult without the full minors to pick from, lol. But Lind/Thole (original offer was Lind + Delmon Young) is a non-starter in my book.

                        Cards need an SS, BP depth wouldn't hurt. Maybe Izturis and Santos is the way to go.

                          I might just forget about Castellanos and go for Rondon. I'm thinking about Sergio Santos and a prospect for Rondon.

                            Better, but we are we really talking about removing a middle-of-the-order bat from a division contender for a UTIL and a 7th/8th inning man? Sure Santos could close while Motte is out, but it's not like Motte's career is over. The Cards have a very good record developing their own arms too.

                            I'd want more to deal Beltran personally. And for the record I am a Cubs fan, so pillaging the Cardinals is generally ok with me, lol

                              Now that actually sounds like a good deal. The Tigers don't trust Rondon YET but need a potential closer like Santos in case Benoit/Coke/Dotel/Albuquerque don't work out. And adding in say a high C / low B prospect would even out the fact that Rondon is younger, cheaper, and worth more.
