RE: Castellanos



None taken. We're primarily attempting to gauge value at this point as pulling the trigger on a deal too soon would send a bad message to the fans anyway. That said, we can't even beat the Royals and have to be realistic about our chances in keeping up with the other clubs in our division. Keep us in mind should you guys be looking to shore up down the stretch.

Best,

Dave Montgomery

TO: LOS ANGELES DODGERS
FROM: NEW YORK METS
SUBJECT: ANDRE EITHER

(Using OSFM v1 rosters)

With opening day literally just behind us. Here in New York we have a big void in the OF. After trading Johan to Baltimore in Spring for a young OF in Avery, but we feel he is still 2 years away.

Noticing Yasiel Puig had a great spring and the log jam in your OF, we would love to see what you're looking to get for Andre Either.

Thanks,
The Mets

To: New York Mets
From: LA Dodgers
Subject: Andre Ethier

As of opening day, Ethier is not available for trade. Puig looked very good in spring training but I feel he needs a small amount of time in the minors to fine tune his skills. If you could give me stats for Puig and Ethier in your franchise at this period of time as well as our record, I may or may not be able to come up with a trade that works well for the both of us.

Re: OS Arbitration Panel Thread 2013 Edition

TO: Minnesota Twins
FROM: New York Yankees
SUBJECT: Trevor Plouffe

(Using OSFM v1 rosters with real life injuries as of opening day)

Date: April 22

I am inquired as to the availability of Trevor Plouffe. As you are probably well aware, our team has recently been hit with the injury bug. Kevin Youkilis is our most recent player to hit the DL. It looks like both he and Mark Teixiera will be out for a solid month and a half. Your team is in the rebuilding process (5-13) this season and Plouffe has struggled early on for you. He is hitting .241/.300/.444 in 54 AB with 3 HR and 7 RBI. Your top 3B prospect (and top 50) Miguel Sano will be ready for the bigs soon and that you probably would like to pave the way for him to come up and experience significant playing time in the near future.

We are prepared to offer you 2 of our young starting pitchers from AAA.
Adam Warren and Brett Marshall both project to be solid middle of the rotation pitchers. Warren is major league ready and Marshall is not too far behind.

We really like what Plouffe could bring to the table for us, so we are willing to negotiate.

To: Colorado Rockies
From: New York Yankees (Evil Empire)
Subject: Nolan Arenado


Hello Mr. RANDOM

How is the air up there hahaha, just a little Rockies humor. The Yankees have been feeling a bit uncomfortable with the negative media attention we have been getting due to one of our players. He is an older player with some baggage that we believe can bring some fans to the seats in Colorado. We are willing to pay 75% of his contract so that we can move him and just keep in mind the great numbers he can produce in that stadium.

We are talking about Alex Rodriguez[/b]. Once again we believe he will be an offensive asset in your stadium. He would be able to play 3B, SS. The deal would look like this:

Yankees Receives: 3B Nolan Arenado

Rockies Receives: 3B/SS Alex Rodriguez

Thank you for reviewing this offer…

i'm sorry sir we have no intrest in alex rodriguez at this time especially not for a top prospect.

From: Redsox

Subject: Chris Carter

Just checking out a possible swap for Chris Carter for Anthony Ranaudo. Ranaudo (b prospect) is having an average season so far with AAA Pawsox with a 2-1 record with an 4.84 era in 4 starts. We would love to hold onto him but we just have to much depth in our rotations with the surplus of young arms and vets like morales and dempster overachieving. Carter is hitting .215 with 3 homeruns and 12 rbi and is potentally blocking j.d martinez who is an a prospect to carters b prospect. Thanks for your time

From: Rockies GM

RE: Troy Tulowitzki

To whom it may concern,

We are shopping shortstop Troy Tulowitzki and we are impressed with your farm system and we have a deal in mind that we feel is both fair and helpful for both organization.

Cardinals Get:
SS Troy Tulowitzki

Rockies Get:
SP Michael Wacha
SP Trevor Rosenthal
SP Joe Kelly
2B Kolten Wong

Obviously this would be a major hit to your farm system, but for a player of Tulowitzki's caliber we are expecting a pretty hefty haul. Since it is before spring training we have some time to decide but the sooner the better.

We do accept counter offers but we are fairly dead set on what we want in return.

Thank you for your time

Re: OS Arbitration Panel Thread 2013 Edition

TO: Twins GM
From: Nationals GM
Subject: Josh Willingham


Due to the injuries to Bryce Harper and Ryan Zimmerman, we are looking to add a player that we can use in the middle of our lineup and be a similar run producer to Bryce and Ryan. We are very intrigued by Josh Willingham.This season he is batting .246 with 0 HR and 13 RBI. Willingham was a former National and we would love to have him back in DC.

We see that you guys lack a lot of depth at SP and SS in your farm system. We are prepared to part ways with Ian Krole, a left handed, 19 year old pitcher. Ian Krole is a Low B level prospect. Also to contribute to your SS problem, we will offer you former first round pick Rick Hague. Hague is a High C level prospect.

Please contact us as soon as possible as we are on a 4 game skid and we are having trouble scoring runs!

Thanks,

The Washington Nationals

We are certainly open to trading Plouffe. We would like another pitcher in place of Warren, one of younger age. Is Manny Banuelos available? We are not concerned about his injuries as of right now because we don't necesarily need a major league ready pitcher and we would like to have him come up with our younger pitching prospects.

Looking at Hague's history, we're not too high on him. However we will trade you Willingham if you put Tony Renda in this place.

So the offer is: Ian Krole and Tony Renda for Willingham.
