2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

I'm looking to build for the next three years while still having a chance to win now. I think the cards are close to be legit this year they just have some holes that need to be addressed with shortstop being one of them and bullpen the other. I like my bullpen now since I brought up Carlos Martinez.

I like Indians as trade team because I think they would work in real life, Cardinals just didn't want to give up Rosenthal like Indians wanted.

In that case, I think these are your best options:

Asdrubal Cabrera, Indians (only if Cleveland's out of contention OR if Lindor's ready)

Elvis Andrus, Rangers (if Profar's ready to come up)

Jurickson Profar, Rangers (if Andrus is performing and Profar's stuck in AAA or bench)

Ian Desmond, Nationals (be prepared to give up quality pieces)

Zack Cosart, Reds (if you're comfortable with inter-division trading)

Trevor Story, Rockies (high potential, you will have to give up a lot)

Troy Tulowitzki, Rockies (arguably the best SS in the MLB right now, if you want him you'll be giving up a ton)

Hanley Ramirez, Dodgers (only if he's struggling OR if the Dodgers are out of it OR if they have another viable option at SS)

Dee Gordon, Dodgers (unless he's somehow taken over the starting SS job)

I'd try get Dee Gordon to boost the top of your lineup. Unfortunately, neither one of Kozma or Descalso carries much trade value. These a slight value in Boggs, Sanchez and Salas but not enough to land Gordon. Not realistic but somewhat fair is Ryan Jackson, Mitch Boggs and Eduardo Sanchez

As the Braves looking to make a minor mve or two to strengthen my minors system. So I'm wondering what it would take to get Audy Ciriaco from the Marlins and Reese Havens from the Mets?

I wouldn't think it would take much because I'm pretty sure Ciriaco was signed this winter as a minor league FA and I wanna say the Mets DFA'd Havens earlier this year, but wanted your opinions because I don't kno a whole lot about either guy or how their organization views them.

Both guys are like a low C each meaning they'd both come to Atlanta cheap. Overall prospect depth coming back the other way to the Marlins and Mets is fine

For Ciriaco, just give up a C rated pitching prospect. A MI would be fine as well.

As for Havens, give the Mets a decent outfielder of some sort.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

looking to get mosies sierra . i got him in my first franchise before i restarted and gave up a 2b and a pitcher so would jake elmore + a pitcher be ok ?

Yeah, that'd be fine.

I was looking to move Chris Nelson, to make room for Nolan Arenado at the big league level.

What about Tyler Matzek (LHSP/B+) and Nelson (3B/C) for Trumbo? That would give the Angels a quality pitching prospect and a third baseman.

I'm at work, so I don't have stats, my apologies.

Meh, replace Nelson with something useful.

Sorry I meant in real life I was hoping they would. I was thinking of offering a group with Kozma, Descalso and a pitcher or two like Salas and Sanchez or Boggs

Not enough for A-Cab, not nearly.

Would it be fine to send a low C shortstop to the Giants for reliever Chad Gaudin?

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

First 30 team control dynasty with Dodgers.

Want to pick up Cano from Yankees before season starts. I understand that he is a rental that will still command a big return but I am willing to take on ARod hoping that that will diminish the needed return at least a bit. The only untouchable prospect is Puig. I am hoping for a deal that is fair and realistic, I realize some argue Cano being traded isn't but I feel that if anyone was willing to take on ARod they would be willing to Part with Cano who would keep them well over the luxury tax to resign.

I also want to move Ted Lilly, I know my Orioles could use him but what could I get for him/any other takers?

Again I am before the season starts, just trying to patch holes and make a splash.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Good idea of adding some youth to the Angels (Matzek) but Nelson provides no real upgrade at 3B over Alberto Callaspo. Go with Matzek and Charlie Blackmon instead.

If you want to trade Chris Nelson, I could see the Marlins, Phillies, Braves, Cubs and Astros be interested. Might fetch you a so-so reliever in return if you want some bullpen help

I already traded Blackmon in a separate deal. I'm not desperate at the moment for bullpen help, but some depth wouldn't hurt. I'll look into a trade with one of those, the Braves and Phillies are the most intriguing.

As for another piece to go with Matzek, what about Le Mahieu? He's stashed in AAA right now, and I'm not as high on him as others. With a mid-B potential, he could provide some infield depth in LA. Ryan Wheeler can play both corner infield spots and I'm willing to move him as well.

I'd prefer not to move any of my major league players, since my offense has been one of the best in the league so far this season. But, I don't mind moving some higher ranked prospects in the minors.

Yes that's fine. Gaudin doesn't really carry any value

Go Matzek/Wheeler if Wheeler is a B prospect. If he's a C, go Matzek/LeMahieu

Well Puig absolutely, positively has to be in a deal for Cano. Puig, Lee, Gordon for Cano and A-Rod. I think it could possibly be more involved but Cano is a rental and A-Rod is worth moldy bread at this point.

Go for it

LeMahieu is an interesting idea, certainly gives them another young guy. Yeah I ike Matzek and LeMahieu for Trumbo

I can't see the Dodgers afford Cano without including Puig. Closest you can come is probably Zach Lee, Kenley Jansen, Dee Gordon, Chris Reed and Andre Ethier (for Cano and A-Rod)

Lilly is nothing more than a high C. Get Reimold back from the O's? Other suitors: Angels, Tigers, Mets, White Sox, Twins, Cubs

I can see that trade if Cano has an extension but I think that is too much to give up for a rental Cano.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Okay. I'm playing 30 team with my Phillies. It's mid June and we're in third, 10 1/2 back. I want to unload Papelbon as he is a luxury that my middling team can no longer afford. I'm looking at dealing him to the tigers for prospects as we need to get younger. Also, Valverde has an era over 5 and they are in first, 4 games or so ahead of the sox. I'm looking at Avisail Garcia plus a piece or two. Fair? And who else could I get?

Sweet that's about what I figured, thanks guys.
