Nice thing is they have Zorbist who can move around allowing you to put him either in the OF or at 1B or 2B, thus making it easier to trade guys.

    In my Franchise I just dealt A. Rios and A. Dunn from Chicago to the Rays.

    They do have extra SP to deal, because with their current starting 5, Archer is stuck in the bullpen, and Guerrieri,Colome and Odorizzi all in AAA. Personally I wouldn't be afraid to deal Cobb or Niemann away because of this.
    Loney, Scott, Joyce and Johnson are doing average (respectively). I'll look into getting them a catcher and some first base help. DH is occupied by Joyce with Myers in left field and Zobrist in right field. Johnson's taking up second base so I'll look into catcher. Thanks for the help!

      July 31st in my M's Franchise in 2014. Boston has been on a losing streak and now sits 11 games out in the East and 6.5 out of the Wildcard behind teams like the Rangers,Yankees,Blue Jays, Tigers, Orioles, Angels and even the Twins.

      So I am thinking they now are in the seller group, joining Houston (15 GB), Oakland (18.6 GB), the Mets (16.5), Phillies (18.5) and Marlins (22.0), Cubs (19.5), Pirates (21.0), Rockies (9.0).


      The Giants have won 4 in a row and 7 out of 10 and are now tied with the Dodgers (also winning 7-10) for 2nd place in the NL West 1 game back of Arizona. The Padres dropped to 3rd/4th (1.5 games back).

      I just made some deals for Arizona (got Cliff Lee) and the Padres (got Peavy and A. Ramirez).

      I now want to make a deal for the Giants..

      They need help behind the plate (Posey is on the DL for 3 weeks), help in the OF (last years adds A. Soriano is hitting .262 with 2 HR, and S. Hairston is on the DL), also could use a upgrade at 2B and possibly SS as Crawford is a B. Ryan clone (great glove no offense).

      I was thinking about doing a deal with Boston, grabbing M. Napoli and putting him behind the plate until Posey returns, then moving him to 1B and Belt to the OF.. Also thought about adding S. Victorino for LF as he is the Sox's #4 OF, (they have A. Either starting in RF), and could promote B. Bentz or B. Jacobs to be the new #4.

      Napoli is only hitting .219 with 11 HR and 37 RBI, but last season hit .281 with 48 HR and 116 RBI. Victorino is hitting .239 with 11 HR and 25 RBI.

      Figure it's a buy low opportunity, but the Giants are weak at prospects other then young pitching which Boston already has a lot of in De La Rosa,Webster,Barnes,Ranaudo,Workman,Owens and Britton.

      Any thoughts Spreadsheet says 2 High C's for each.

      Looking at the roster, I was thinking maybe 1B A. Villalona (65B) currently in AA, and OF F. Peguero (62C) if I just went with the same positions...

      Another twist would be the Giants dealing P. Sandoval (making 11.7 mil) for Napoli, Victorino, and Middlebrooks, (not realistic) but seams fair as spreadsheet has Pablo worth 3 High B.


      Another option could be a deal with the Pirates for Russell Martin, and J. Tabata.

      Where then I could deal someone like Heston or Crick, to give Pittsburgh another young SP to go with Cole and Tallion

      Or I could deal with Houston getting K. Morales for 1B and J. Elmore for 2B, move B. Belt to LF and still need to find a C.

      Houston also could use young SP, as I have already dealt B. Norris and B. Peacock away along with P. Humber.
      I'm not sure Boston would sell if out 6.5 games with 2 months to go. Lots can happen and their fan base would be extremely unhappy with that.

      I'd look into sending Russell Martin to SF if he's in the last year of his contract. Otherwise, 3 weeks isn't very long, so I don't think a team would trade there, they'd probably just fill in with what they have.

      I wouldn't even consider trading the Panda under any circumstances.

      Also, Crick is too good to trade for Tabata/Martin. Maybe Heston, but not Crick.

        I'm heading into my first offseason with the Cardinals soon and want to open up some space in my rotation and move some pieces around in the bullpen. I'm thinking about trading either Lynn (14 wins, 3.3 ERA) or Jaime Garcia (injured all season) and also trading Motte (injured all season). I'm not sure what teams would be interested in each, or if the values on Garcia and Motte are lower because of missing a full season.

          For Lynn or Garcia: Padres, A's, Angels, Indians, Yankees

          For Motte: Dodgers, Tigers, Yankees (if Rivera retires)

            Are their values diminished because of their injuries? Also, I'm planning on pairing what SP I choose with David Freese possibly. What would my highest possible return from the Yankees be?

              Thanks in advance for any help...
              Probably could use an upgrade at 1B/DH. Adding a quality arm to the pen is never wrong either. Remember that Maddon loves players that bring multiple positions to the table

                Thanks for the feedback.

                I am going to go the Pittsburgh route. Also looking at the Giants rolling the dice on James McDonald as a new #5 SP, McDonald was 2-14 last year for the Pirates and this year is 3-13. I can't see them bringing him back. Spread sheet says 2 High C's, but with that record?

                Here is my final deal

                Martin/Tabata/McDoanld

                for

                Heston/Villalona/Surkamp

                I am then thinking about doing a Heath Hembree (82B) who has 25 saves in AAA to the Astros for 2B Jake Elmore (73B), 1B/3B Mark Reynolds (never did fit in with the Astros and is in AAA now taking AB's away from Singleton) and OF V. Wells...

                Will throw in some other players on the Giants side to help out on the salary side of things, but Overall gives the Giant some more depth and gives the Astros a future CP, with Veras gone to Detroit

                  I don't think it matters a lot. It's not like video game injuries are chronic, recurring issues (I know 2K has a "chronic injury" thing though I'm not convinced it matters). Maybe knock off one tier from each, so a mid B would be a low B, for example. Otherwise the spreadsheet values are fine.

                  Both the Yankees and Angels could go for a Lynn/Garcia + Freese package. I'd try to figure out what positions you want in return before hammering out the details. The Yankees have some depth at RHP and OF. The Angels are pretty bad throughout the farm system.

                    Those are fine imo. I'm not sure why the Giants would want a SP with that record though. Usually guys with awful records don't get dealt.

                      What are some teams that would need a backup utility infielder in Maicer Izturis. I'm looking to move him to add an extra outfielder to my roster. Also, I'm what I could get for him. He's performing more on the average side this season for me through two months. Any ideas?

                        If you mean the 2013 season, he's actually not allowed to be traded until June 15.

                          These are all very rough, as I have no stats or contenders to work with. You should obviously wait until the deadline for these.

                          Oh, and I forgot.

                          Middlebrooks to the Cubs for Brett Jackson and Josh Vitters.

                          *these are all assuming that you're playing with OD sets*

                          Okay 1 and a half weeks from the all-star break sitting at 59-38 doing the sim 5 play 1 thing.. 5.5 games up on the Yankees in the division which is putting me in more of a buy mode rather than rebuild mode.

                          Positions that need help:

                          SS: Drew dislocated his ankle and is out 6+ months and Bogaerts has a broken hand out for 3 more weeks.

                          OF:
                          Victorino .266/.333/.381
                          Gomes .280/.367/.527 16HR 51RBI
                          Gomes is playing out of his mind but his average has dropped about 40 points and I'm afraid he's not going to sustain these numbers.

                          3B: Would still like to deal Middlebrooks. Hitting .273/.324/.399 7HR 33RBI

                          Teams out of it:
                          Baltimore
                          Seattle
                          Houston (24-70 36.5GB lol)

                                I think they'd rather actual prospects rather than Boni.
