Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Hey guys, on my Braves franchise I'm 32-15 while the Rays are 19-28. I'm pretty weak at 3B, what would it take to snatch Longoria from the Rays? I'm Willing to offer Brian McCann, Teheran and who else would it take to get this deal done? Another 3B I'm willing to trade for too is Olt, what would be a fair trade for both of these guys? Thanks.

I hope you realize that a Longo trade would be quite unrealistic, but McCann + Teheran + Graham would probably get it done.

Mike Olt for Kris Medlen?

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

that is a horrific trade from the Red Sox standpoint

Ok, it is what the CPU is offering eachother in me and my roomates franchise so I figured why not send it here whether to pass it through or prevent it

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Dodgers (36-22) Offer:
Chad Billingsley (5-2 3.25 ERA)
Javy Guerra (1-1 1.50 ERA)

Indians (30-30) Give Up:
Chris Perez (2-3 4.39 ERA 5 SV) For whatever reason he isn't their main closer
Ryan Raburn (.261 AVG 1HR 12 RBI)

I think this one is kind of obvious but hey you never know

I would love to trade for Longoria and will be willing to give those pieces, however I would like to keep it fair so I guess I wont even look at him lol. I'm not ready to give Medlen for Olt. Is there any other option? How about McCann + Teheran? If so, can I get a good reliever in return from Texans as well, or might it be too much?

McCann + Teheran for Olt is far, far too much. Teheran straight up might work.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

I made my first trade in my dynasty and I feel like I got the bad end of it.
I traded: RF Norichika Aoki
Received: Prospects CF Anthony Gose, 22, 69 OVR with C potential
and 2B Christian Lopes, 20, 58 OVR with a B potential
I think the spreadsheet called for a low B and high C in return for Aoki, but this doesn't seem fair. Should I have traded for better prospects or is this about right?

It's fair. Lopes is a really good prospect and Gose's speed is incredible. I just don't see why TOR would want Aoki.

That sounds good..Thanks.

I didn't really consider the Jays needs. Just looking to dump Aoki. Maybe they could DH him or have him split time with Rasmus. He had a pretty solid year for the Brewers last year.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Currently in July with the Braves (3.5 GB Nationals). I am looking to trade McCann because I don't think I will be able to re-sign him. He's having a real nice season - .324, 18 HR, 53 RBI. Rated 89/B.

Ideally would like to acquire Machado. I am looking for fairness over realism because I know they wouldn't trade him (Manny).

Could McCann even be part of the package since they have Weiters? I have 30 team control so I can manually set their lineup if I need to.

I was thinking/hoping for something like Medlen (97/A), McCann (89/B), Venters (88/A)/Beachy (87/B) + a prospect for Manny? Am I even in the ballpark here? The O's are 6.5 GB in the AL East.

I am willing to part with anyone not named Kimbrel, Heyward, Freeman, J-Upton, Simmons or Teheran. Medlen is the top player I could offer. The only move I have made so far is trading SP Gilmartin for Marcus Stroman of the Jays.

If I'm not even close, could I build a package around McCann to acquire Mike Olt? I saw Teheran/Olt and Medlen/Olt deals being discussed but wanted to see if I could deal McCann + a prospect instead?

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Just pulled off a couple trades as the Red Sox...

Trade 1
Traded Stephen Drew & Pedro Beato(who was tearing up AAA) to the Cardinals for Stephen Piscotty & C.J. McElroy
Is this one THAT unrealistic? I dont know anything about these 2 Cards prospects. (And yes, I have Furcal out for the year with his real life injury)

Trade 2
I indeed did trade Craig Breslow like I mentioned earlier, he went to the Padres for Brad Brach and Miles Mikolas...
I think Mikolas was pushing it but he's very expendable in my eyes.

Trade 3
Alfredo Aceves to the Phils for Phillippe Aumont
I don't think this one is bad at all... especially with Aumont just being demoted to AA in my game...

Advice
I would like to acquire Ryan Raburn to sure up my bench, I see his value is a High C on the list... however Im having trouble with the CPU accepting a trade, Red Sox & Indians dont really match up well I guess... I wouldnt mind a 3-way trade even if I had to manual do it, any suggestions?

Thanks for your help guys... please dont burn me too bad lol

Listening to the Baseball Tonight with Buster Olney back in mid March, they discussed McCann and his injury. Mentioned how McCann is heading into free agency and is a solid for a an American League team where he could catch a few games a week and DH the rest. The Yankees was mentioned as an option but let's leave it there...point is, for the O's, he'd be the main DH since he has a bum shoulder and Wieters is the superior defender. Guess he could catch like 1-2 days per week though to get Wieters a break. I don't think it's and ideal fit but it could most certainly work in the world of The Show

Venters doesn't carry much value with his so-so 2012 and arm trouble to begin 2013. McCann, Medlen, Beachy, JR Graham and maybe another lesser prospect for Machado. Keep in mind that McCann is a free agent after 2013 and that he'd be a rental for the O's so I wouldn't value him that highly since he might skip town to the land of dollars

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Hey guys im back.

So im in last place at the end of June and im starting to trade off some of my secodary players.

Both the Fowler and Young Jr have been solid- great all year long and i would like to flip one to the Royals since they are only 1.5 out of wild card and there team only lacks a reliable leadoff hitter/ center fielder

What could i potentially get from them for either of these guys?

I likely will unload both at some point because the Cubs and Meta are also in need. Obviously the Royals are my preferred destination but i just want a good deal.

I'm looking for young bullpen arms but really any prospect will do.

I think i am more interested in unloading Young first.

Any ideas?

Yeah unload EY Jr first, Fowler is much more valuable. The Royals have some nice young arms for your pen so I'm sure you'll find a fit. You want the small lefty Tim Collins in return? He looks so tiny on the mound but usually dominates out of the pen for me
