I just wanted to say that I haven't gone full Min yet but my free time just keeps taking more of a hit as I am now working with a couple Pan Am Special events including chairing one. Don't worry though when it comes time to fundraising I'll be sure to hit you f***ers up. I do apologize for those that were talking 3B trade with me. If I cost myself some value as everyone sets their rosters...oh well.

BALCO Pharm Team 2015 lineup ages:

 

C Brian McCann 31

1B Anthony Rizzo 25

2B Dustin Pedroia 31

3B Adrian Beltre 36

SS Jed Lowrie 31

CF Andrew McCutchen 28

OF Matt Kemp 30

OF Hunter Pence 32

UTIL Prince Fielder 31

(Chris Carter 28)

 

Average age of the starting nine is 30.6. I'll likely keep Beltre until retirement for the same reasons Dinger laid out re: Ortiz.

Yeah I admit, as a student in my last year at UofT, I didn't have $100 back then to blow on beer at the Rogers Centre. So whats your point lol? I don't think guys like Chappy or Gibbers spent $100 on a round of beer for everyone. Though if you think that entitles you to being a big shot, then great!

 

I didn't buy a round, and I also didn't get bought for since I rarely drink.

That's weird. I must have exited the document too soon.

 

You also forgot to add Trout to mine from that deal way back me and FTD made. Don't worry, everyone makes mistakes.

Yeah I'm still regretting that Mike Trout for Tyler Glasnow + Austin Hedges trade.

You won't be when Glasnow is going all Randy Johnson and Hedges is playing like Pudge Rodriguez. You'll have a nice duo there. In fact, I kinda regret the deal. Trout SO rate concerns me, he had the most in the League.

Shocked that North would deal Homer for those two prospects. Almora doesn't hit for power, walk, or run - possibly the worst utilization of tools in the minor leagues. Appel smells like a rich man's Deck McGuire.

I like Appel a lot and Almora is said to have a high upside. Wanted to clear a roster spot too.

 

Also want to build my own stable of prospects to deal, since it's impossible to trade with all the rebuilding teams unless you have that. I've missed out on all the great players traded so far because I haven't had pieces they want. From conversations I've had, people seem to value Appel and Almora.

Why not just line up a 3 way trade at the time of the deal?

I'll still do that, this just keeps me from having to line up a 4 way. Young MLBer/acquired top prospect + Appel + Almora + pick is a good chunk of offerable talent.

Don't come to me with those smelly guys.

I saw yesterday on the ticker, that Waino had surgery to trim his elbow ligament? Doesn't sound good to me. Who has him?

 

It was cartilage.

Wait a tick,

 

North already traded that pick 50 from the Bailey deal to me for Rodney.

 

Supposed to be #40?

 

When it rains, it pours. Even more reason to like this one for TCA.

Allow me to look into that for you, good sir.

North, you do not own #50. Get your s*** together! You guys can revise the deal or W/E, or maybe you can give Cats Ass #40 for being such a pain in the ass.

Is this grounds for disqualifying his DDL championship, and appointing it to the next highest finisher?

Sorry, Trout is the only act of charity you get.

I hope you're aware that if you miss the playoffs with Trout in the LOD... I'm literally never going to let you hear the end of it.

Literally?

 

Also I haven't decided if I'm taking Trout. I asked my GF to tell me who was more handsome as a tiebreaker. She said Trout looks douchey and Stanton is better looking.

Since I'm not getting either so I don't care: I have Trout slightly, marginally, just barely ahead, for whatever it's worth from me.

Just going by the spreadsheet, oops.

 

I'll probably end up giving up 40 instead and getting a later pick upgrade.

It's definitely Trout.

It's really kind of a rough time because Trout has been legitimately exposed. He can't hit high fastballs, and who knows if he'll adjust. He's a long time Angel while Stanton will likely be somewhere else fairly soon, hopefully in a hitter's park. I would soil myself if he went to Boston.

 

I also have Trout ever so slightly ahead but I don't know. Stanton could easily sit in the 40-50 bombs per year range in a decent park for years and years.

Can you just post the whole revised deal in the thread so it's all official (in case of anything, I know how you love your loopholes)

Just to let you all know, we will be compensating Boxy for Oscar Taveras. The exact degree to which he'll be compensated is TBD, but given the circumstances, I think we can all agree it's fair. This will probably involve additional and/or upgraded draft picks.
