Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Marlins? Pirates? Brewers? Astros? White Sox? Cubs? Mets?

Um, excuse me. The White Sox are not a rebuild! Not yet, at least...the face of baseball is changing. Anyways, I've got to do NL, the DH is so boring. I did the pale hose last year and lost in the ALCS to TEX who crushed me all year long.

Adding Parker or Anderson is bending me over backwards

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

So Jacob Anderson is injured for 2 months so can't add him into the trade. What if I add in D.J. Davis and forgo Gose or the additional pitching prospect. Or is he worth too much?

That's fine. I like Davis.

Adding Parker or Anderson is bending me over backwards

And adding Taillon is bending THEM over backwards

Yankees get: Bud Norris and RP Joe Musgrove (Mid C)
Astros get: CF Slade Heathcott (High B) and SP Brett Marshall (High C)

Yankees have Sabathia/Kuroda/Pettitte/Hughes/Nova/Phelps with Pineda coming back mid-season. I have a hard time seeing them give up a top OF prospect (a position of real need over the next couple years) for a mid-back of the rotation starter.

Pettites old, Hughes and Phelps are inconsistent and Pineda is a question mark with that shoulder injury

True, but is Norris that big of an upgrade? If they traded for him, whose spot would he take?

I'm with you on the NL part, especially when you're rooting for an AL team IRL.

Was thinking of the ChiSox as an alternative to rebuild with the main task of making them younger. Sort of what people are doing with the Yankees

He'd be the 5

That's fine. I like Davis.

So Seager + Miller + Paxton + Truinfel for Lawrie and Davis. Sound fair?

Also another trade I'm thinking of. Tampa Bay is completely out of contention last place in their division and my bullpen is garbage. I'm looking to get Jake McGee and he's listed as a high C in the spreadsheet. So would it be alright if I gave them my highest C prospect which is a 22 yr old 74 ovr sp I believe. Or should I give them more?

That's enough of a price to pay. Love pitching with McGee. He'll be a solid SU for you

And adding Taillon is bending THEM over backwards

I was looking at it only based on game ratings (84/A + 72/B for 75/A + 75/B). From that standpoint it seems fair. I didn't look at any real life top prospect lists or anything and Taillon doesn't have the top 50 icon in the game. I just feel like Milone and Donaldson for just Alvarez isn't a great deal on my end

[raggBAGG]

As the Brewers looking to make a playoff run, I need a more dominant left hand pitching starter. I want Johan Santana but the Mets won't budge unless I give them my RF potential A MLB ready prospect (I have force trades off). Saw on the spreadsheet that Santana only accounts for two high Cs. Would a straight up swap for my RF and Santana do the Mets justice? I don't care if it screws me over in the long run, I want to win now.

It's a not a fair deal on your the Pirates end, Milone is a product of his home park and is a 5 at best and Donsldson is maybe an everyday player. Your trading for a former number 1 overall pick who still has alot of potential. Your getting the better of this trade, if you add Taillon you would be ripping off the computer at a new high

put force trades on then..... And give them two C's. you'd be crazy to give them an A for Santana

No, I've seen worse. To get Tallion, you would need to package Anderson, Parker, an A catcher and a B. you can receive, Tallion and Alverez.
