Holy... okay, let's go through this.

What I see you're going for here is a bunch of high-risk, high potential guys. I think that this could definitely work, though. What I see in here with guys like, well, literally all of them except Adams and Hughes, are high-risk, WAY high potential here. I'm lower on Sanchez than most and don't think he sticks at catcher, but I love Pineda/Montgomery. I think that if the Marlins threw back another starter like Eovaldi, LeBlanc, or Alvarez, the Yankees would be more inclined to accept, because their pitching depth is turrible as is and you're killing it even further here.

I think i'm going to send back Eovaldi and LeBlanc. Just to clear a little space on my team, and give them a little more depth. So my final trade would look like:

NYY gets:
RF Giancarlo Stanton
SP Ricky Nolasco
SS Adeiny Hechavarria
SP Nathan Eovaldi
SP Wade LeBlanc
3B Chone Figgins

MIA gets:
C Gary Sanchez
OF Mason Williams
SP Michael Pineda
SP Phil Hughes
SP Manny Banuelos
RP Mark Montgomery
2B David Adams
3B Dante Bichette Jr
OF Melky Mesa
SS Austin Aune

I've given up on the Derek Holland trade involving JP Arencibia because the Rangers won't accept. I'm looking at Matt Moore of the Tampa Bay Rays right now. He's 4-3 with a 3.42 ERA. What would it take for me to get him from the Rays???

More than Arencibia

Regarding Joey Votto... how about this deal??

Joey Votto and Everth Cabrera (Don't ask me why the Reds have Cabrera, they just do...) for Jose Bautista, Dee Gordon, Adam LaRoche and David Adams???

Dee Gordon doesn't count as an A btw

I think if you got one more good prospect back, it'd be a fair deal. Mainly because I really, really like Hech. Kid's special. I'd keep him, actually, if I were you.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

I believe AC said Jose+A+A. That's Jose+unproven SS+old 1B+player

I'm my franchise, Gordon is .289 with 11 stolen bases. I believe he's an A as well. David Adams is a B so should I add in someone like Daniel Norris or Aaron Sanchez??? Oh, and the Reds don't have Cozart at shortstop anymore.

Edit: Dee Gordon doesn't count as an A

Bautista + Gordon + Sanchez/Norris + Position player A

Could Jorge Soler count as position player A???

Definitely, although I'm not sure why you have him

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

My rosters had him the Free Agent pool so I signed him seeing that he was an A potential outfielder.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

So, just to recap,

Joey Votto and Everth Cabrera for Jose Bautista, Dee Gordon, Aaron Sanchez/Daniel Norris and Jorge Soler.

Spoiler

Out of Sanchez and Norris, which one would be better to trade/keep???

The one that's better to keep is the one that you're trading

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

The one that's better to keep is the one that you're trading

So they're equivalent???

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

No

If you think Sanchez is better, you're giving them Sanchez. If you think Norris is better, you're giving them Norris.

[Bluejaysfan65]

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

No

If you think Sanchez is better, you're giving them Sanchez. If you think Norris is better, you're giving them Norris.

Ah. Ok. So in my opinion, I'd be giving them Sanchez.

Yep.

Off topic but baseball relevant, the Canadian baseball team just absolutely mauled Mexico. Bench brawl. Jay Johnson nearly killed Aceves.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Thanks for the advice on trying to deal Alfonso Soriano and Carlos Marmol. I managed to deal Marmol and Brett Jackson to Pittsburgh for a reliver who had an ERA of 1.13 (who I converted into my closer, I just forgot his name for the moment) and Sterling Marte. Stoked about having Marte, who has come in and been great.

Soriano was having a dreadful season and I found no suitors for him until just before the deadline. Dealt him and Carlos Villanueva to Cleveland for Michael Brantley and Zach McAllister. Stoked about my new outfield combo of Marte & Brantley.

Ohhhh, you traded Jackson? I'm surprised all of Chicago hasn't revolted
