Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 I was very close to pulling off an eight-team trade in December. I honestly feel like half of these mega proposals could be done with 2-3 teams. Admit you add more just because you like the idea of an enormous trade.

Admit you add more just because you like the idea of an enormous trade. I think most of them do need to have that many. Just because some teams like certain prospects more then others. I think most I were in had to have the amount they had. I tried with less but had to keep adding in teams to make it work.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 I think most of them do need to have that many. Just because some teams like certain prospects more then others. I think most I were in had to have the amount they had. I tried with less but had to keep adding in teams to make it work. You need a lot of teams to make the pick upgrading work. Every team pitches in to turn a sixth rounder into a first. That's how jays_fever ends up with #5 here, which is exchangeable for a near-elite prospect. And as you say, the prospect preferences can be muted with enough teams. Proposal III To Me: Huston Street (#47) To KingKat: Hunter Dozier, Mark Appel, Eddie Rosario, MiLB #32, MiLB #47 (Castro, Gonzalez, #24, #109) To Dinger: Miguel Montero, MiLB #120 (Street) To jays_fever: Gregory Polanco, MiLB #5 (Montero, Folty, Jackson, #86) To BTS: Jason Castro, MiLB #86 (Dozier, #32, #56) To z3r0s: Mike Foltynewicz, Lucas Sims, [DJ Davis or JP Crawford], MiLB #21 (Garza, Polanco) To Sammy: Matt Garza, MiLB #12, MiLB #58 (#5, #21, #41, [Davis or Crawford]) To Hurl: Austin Jackson, MiLB #109 (Sims, Rosario, #120) To TheCatsAss: Adrian Gonzalez, MiLB #24 (Appel, #12, #58) FTD, you could be useful as a pick/prospect exchanger. What are your prospects' pick equivalencies?
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 I'm offended that you didn't include any of my players/prospects in your mega deal.
Laika Community Moderator Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 I wouldn't mind getting my hands on Corey Kluber at decent value. Mind working that into this deal somehow?
TRM Verified Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 I'm looking to acquire Trout, and since FTD said he is already in for this 10+ team trade, I see no reason you can't work my needs into it North. Look forward to hearing what Godfather North has to say.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Alright, here's the updated one. To KingKat: Hunter Dozier, Josh Bell, Mark Appel, Eddie Rosario, Jackie Bradley, MiLB #23, MiLB #47 (Castro, Gonzalez, Moss, Jansen, #24, #109) To z3r0s: Mike Foltynewicz, Lucas Sims, JP Crawford, MiLB #21, MiLB #30 (Garza, Polanco, #23) To jays_fever: Gregory Polanco, MiLB #5, MiLB #44 (Montero, Folty, Jackson, Crawford, #86) To Hurl: Austin Jackson, MiLB #35, MiLB #109 (Sims, Rosario, #30, #120) To Sammy: Matt Garza, MiLB #12, MiLB #58 (JP Crawford, #5, #21, #41) To Dinger: Miguel Montero, MiLB #66, MiLB #120 (Street, #53) To TheCatsAss: Adrian Gonzalez, MiLB #24 (Appel, #12, #58) To NJH: Corey Kluber, Kenley Jansen (Bradley, #16) To BTS: Jason Castro, MiLB #86 (Dozier, #32, #56) To therealmin: MiLB #43, MiLB #100 (#35, #119) To havok22: Carl Crawford, MiLB #53 (#43, #44) To fearthedoc: MiLB #16, MiLB #32 (Bell, #66) To silvergun: Brandon Moss (Corey Kluber) To Me: Huston Street (#47, #100)
Laika Community Moderator Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 Of course Mark Buehrle would do this to me. This could potentially be the best start of his career, by game score or FIP. Didn't actually look at his game logs but it has to be top 3 or 5 at least.
Laika Community Moderator Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 To NJH: Corey Kluber, Kenley Jansen (Bradley, #16) Um. Yes please.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Doesn't he have a PG and a NH? I assume those would be better, though I could be wrong.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 The perfect game was a 93 game score. -- KK may have trouble absorbing Dozier, Bell, Appel and Rosario into his farm, so comment if you want to take two of those guys in exchange for a better prospect.
TRM Verified Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 North for the love of God, go meet a girl or something.

Have you actually spoke to any of the teams about this, or are you trying to infer what they would want based off their rosters?

I'm not involved in this. It's all made up.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Have you actually spoke to any of the teams about this, or are you trying to infer what they would want based off their rosters? It's just an idea based off team needs. I'm not involved in this. It's all made up. Would you do it though?
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Moving Street doesn't work for me. I have arguably the best offense in the league even without a C, so I'm not going to move a closer to get insurance for Gattis. You need at least 3 closers if you want to compete in that category every week.
TRM Verified Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 North, stop trying to make 10 teams trade happen. It's not going to happen. (If someone could Mean Girls meme this, that would be great.)
Laika Community Moderator Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 The Bill James 'Game Score' for Buehrle's perfect game was 93. Tonight - 86. If Lawrie snares that ball to end the game - 91. 11 K's is like a 3-sigma event for Bark Muehrle, lol.

TRM Verified Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Anyone else find it funny how North lists Dozier first as if he's the best player in the package? Everything about everything North does regarding these trades is funny.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 He's loosing us cred with the BBDL guys thinking this monster is an actual thing.
SpeedyGose Verified Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 All I have to say is screw you zeros! James Paxton and your team of sub 1 ERA
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 All I have to say is screw you zeros! James Paxton and your team of sub 1 ERA I've had an incredible first week of the season in this league and my annual re-draft. I have a 0.351 ERA and 0.779 WHIP in my other re-draft on the back of my Cingrani, Hutchison, Kazmir, Rodney, Brothers, Santos, Kimbrel appearances. Its been a fun week for my pitching.
