2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Speaking of the Brewers, I am done with J.P. Arencibia. I swung through EIGHT sliders down the middle with him last game I played. I can't take it anymore. He needs to go to a CPU team where he can properly cheese, or be demoted to AAA if he's not involved in a trade. I'll get stats as I am, for once, at my PS3.

May 3

Brewers 11-18
Blue Jays 14-15 (have to play the May 3 game though)

1B Adam Lind: .370 OBP, 125 wRC+ (yes, I did the calculation), 1.820 BatRuns.

C J.P. Arencibia: .215 OBP, 65 wRC+, .120 ISO (which is quite impressive considering my team ISO of .078), -4.890 BatRuns, A POT

PROSPECTS:

Spoiler

SP Sean Nolin: 23 years old, 71 OVR, tier 7 B, can hit 94 from the left side, 3.23 FIP, 8.07 K/9 (I used the FIP constant IRL of 3.052 and did the legit math). I would prefer not to give him up.

C A.J. Jimenez: 23, 69 OVR, tier 6 B, incredible defensive catcher, COtF if I don't get another catcher. .259 OBP in AA so far, he's struggling coming off a minor injury.

CF D.J. Davis: 19, 65 OVR, tier 5 B, toolsy athletic CF, I forget who but a quote that sticks out in my memory is that only him and Anthony Gose could keep up with Billy Hamilton in a foot race. No stats in single A.

SP/RP John Stilson: 22, 68 OVR, tier 4 B,, righty flamethrower, 1.13 DIPS and 10.13 K/9 in AAA.

SS Dawel Lugo: 18, 53 OVR, tier 4 B, single A with no stats. Extremely nice scouting report spoilered.

3B Mitchell Nay: 19, 56 OVR, tier 4 B, no stats in A ball. Gobs of raw power, not even fair. May not stick at 3B due to some shoddy foot and glove work, but he's got an outside shot. Hit tool will need to develop but his power is tantalizing.

SP Chase DeJong: 18, 53 OVR, tier 2 B, no stats in A ball. Safest highschooler you'll ever see, 3 average-above average pitchers. 6'4" and 185 LBS, very projectable, should be a #4 at the worst.

Jon Lucroy: .343 OBP, 144 wRC+, 2.3 BatRuns. 10.875 RF... damn. But be warned, .324 BABIP.

Francisco Rodriguez: 13.50 ERA, 1:2 K:BB ratio (4:8... ow lol), 10.00 DIPS, 2.1M salary. Negative value.


And lastly, my ace in the hole so to speak. Anthony Gose: .358 OBP in AAA, 12.336 RC (around 130 RC+), 1.615 RF, pure CF, Tier 5 A. I do NOT want to give him up... only in a dire circumstance.



Right now, I'm thinking Arencibia + Davis + Lugo for K-Rod + Lucroy, thoughts? I really want to get something done.

I think it's a bit early in the season for the Brewers to be throwing in the towel, but other than that I think the actual trade is fair. If it was later in the season it would be perfect.

Ugh... is there ANYTHING I can do? ANYTHING? I. Need. To. Be. Rid. Of. This. ****er. NOW.



I'll check Brian McCann's stats on the Braves after I have some dinner / at the half of the NBA finals.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

If I was doing the Milwaukee trade AC I would probably replace Lugo with Stilson.

With Segura at short just seems like getting a good pitching prospect would fit in better with their plans.

Did you read the scouting report? Lugo's best at 3B, which they need. Stilson < Lugo.

Depending on McCanns stats I would love a McCann + Merejo/Northcraft for JPA + Nay + Dejong.

You get a tremendous upgrade at C and a young pitcher to develop. Braves downgrade at C in order to provide organizational depth and prevent losing McCann for nothing. I think Nay is a player we could desperately use. Young position player with tons of power. And of course a nice young pitcher to develop in Dejong.

Now this is coming from a Braves fan so idk if you feel as though that's an overpay.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

Are any of these good?

Chacin + Escalona for Hunter Morris

Friedrich for Morris

Belisle + Eddie Butler for Morris

I would definitely do that, but are you sure Nay is a good fit? He may move to 1B or RF which are set for the forseeable future.

What did you say a couple pages back? It's better to prepare for the worst, better to deal with an abundance of depth rather than a lack of depth? Or something along those lines lol. Besides we need a young hitter in our system in the worst way.

Yes, but an abundance of all of two players at a non-premium position isn't exactly anything to write home about when you could fill a hole.

True, but It's not like the Braves have a ton of immediate holes. And besides, Nay is only 19, who knows what could happen by the time he is ready. Even if he isn't able to stick at 3rd, we still have ZERO viable options for 1st/RF/LF in the organization. I really actually feel like Nay provides an organizational hole, as we have no legitimate power hitters in our system. I'd love to have him in the Braves org.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

My bad AC completely goofed on that one.

After reading it though it sounds like pretty good trade to me, only thing going against it right now would be were you are in the season. But if you can't stand him any longer pull it.

I just passed game 50 in my Yanks chise trying to chase down your Blue Jays from second place, trying my best to wait just slightly longer before pulling off the Ruiz deal we talked about. Man it's hard though, definitely feel where you're coming from with catcher problems.

Between three guys (Romine, Stewart, Cervelli) I've got a low .200 average 1 hr and 9 RBI, and lots more bad stats I can't remember of the to of my head.

Re: 2013 The Show Official Trade Discussion Thread

I think the Braves would have to be out of it to pull the McCann deal, I know his contract is up at the end of the year, but the Braves are in it to win this year and he's a big lefty bat come playoff time.

Not to mention there's no guarantee they don't bring him back, however if they are out of it then you could definitely make a deal with them.

Huh, that's fair. Lugo does have 20 HR potential but I see where you're coming from.

At least your guys can play defense. JPA cost me my last game with a dropped 3rd strike.

With Gattis and Betancourt, I don't think so.

They've let plenty by them lol, just lost the first game of my last series against the Rays as Romine let one bounce of his mask.

Tell me about those 3, I get no help from them either and I'm looking to see what catcher I wanna get.

That sucks but it actually sounds funny lol never seen that happen in game yet.
