A wide smile and perfect hair
He had complete control of the rising tides
And a medicine bag hanging at his side

In the flowing blue world of the death-dealing physician

jesus goddamn christ. Not one player hitting .300?

Okay, time to trade off all my decent players for prospects. Miggy's on the auction block, so's Ellsburry and anyone in my rotation/bullpen you'd want. Just make a halfway reasonable offer in the thread and I'd probably take it. Now, I'd bench Baez except that Tejada isn't actually hitting any better. For the moment

Miggy moves to 3B
Duda moves to 1B
McLouth moves to RF.

Lineup should be

Jacoby
Miggy
Hamilton
Duda
McLouth
Salty
Baez
Lindsey

This isn't a multi year league so I'm not really going to let you trade miggy for prospects

Hm. Okay. Can I trade him for less good players and prospects, or is it basically a case where Miggy's untradeable because of league balance/possible collusion reasons?

It's probably the latter, unfortunately. Like, you'd really need to get another elite-ish player back for it to work out, otherwise it's not really fair to the rest of the league.

Fair enough then.

Rotation/Bullpen and Ellsbury are still on the board though, for anyone looking for some pitching or a CF.

Alright, really wanna make a move to get a decent hitting OF/2B/DH. I'd probably trade one of them plus one of my excellent pitchers if anyone is offering.

tadashi: Feb 20, 2006

The Cubs would be willing to trade pitching. I'm looking for bats, particularly outfield. It would need to be more than a one player trade so I'd give you a pitching upgrade and get your hitter and then you'd give me a lesser pitcher and I'd give you a lesser hitter.

# ? Aug 7, 2014 16:25

IcePhoenix: Sep 18, 2005; Take me to your Shida

Oh yeah, that's important. Make sure to match up so both teams end up with 25 players at the end of the deal.

angrygodofjebus: Aug 25, 2005; Drink it up and hunker down

Clay Buchholz loving sucks. I'd like to reorder my rotation if I could so that it's:

Cole
Wheeler
Scherzer
Griffin
Buchholz

But god drat my bullpen pretty much owns.

K/BB:
Allen 63/9
Salas 48/12
Loup 50/13
Downs 22/5

I'd be willing to trade a good bullpen arm for any decent hitter. He doesn't have to be great, just anything better than a .600 OPS. Position isn't important as he'll play DH/1B. But it would need to be a trade like tadashi outlined (I send you good RP/worse hitter, I get a worse RP/better hitter back).

IP can I get the Angels expanded hitting stats? I'd like to maybe trade a dude for relief pitching since deGrom is awful and bad.

Edit: Chisenhall has 15 dingers at the all-star break and he's platooned, what the fuuuuck. How does this team have the most dingers in the AL??

I'd like to swap Alvarez and Wood in the rotation spots (Alvarez to SP2, Wood to SP4).

I'd like to swap Pence and Perez in the lineup order, and LaRoche and Chavez in the lineup order.

Final order:

Jason Kipnis L
Mike Trout R
Alex Gordon L
Salvador Perez R
Adam LaRoche L
Hunter Pence R
Eric Chavez L
Alexei Ramirez R

Yeah, same for Baltimore, please. Looks like we have a pretty good offense, but our pitching is dogshit.

If you're still down for this, I'd make it work, but I'd also like to get one of your starters (and I'll trade one of my OFers). Obviously not a starter of... high caliber.

Gavin Floyd, take him or don't.

I'd also prefer a bleh IF rather than OF if you had more of them. I'll look and see what lines up when I get home from work.
