A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[BTS]

We did a good thing that day. Actually, I think that trade worked out pretty well for all involved. And we got to spite njh!

 

Well, Choo s*** the bed for a few weeks and then missed the playoffs. Deal could look terrible for me if he doesn't come back strong.

[Dr. Dinger]

Choo can't possibly be that bad again. I think he'll be very useful again this year.

Try tho

[TheHurl]

If anybody is going to cut their s*****, busted ass prospects, give me a shout. I might give a late pick for a couple of them -- better something than nothing!

 

JR Graham is my prospect cut. Minny is forced to play him.

[TheHurl]

Looking at my initial roster I think i've only made like 6 trades. Only two I remember outside of this year's two deals are Wil Myers for Carlos Santana and Junior Lake for a mid 60's pick who became Chance Sisco. I traded Pujols, Rollins and Wainwright but I can't remember what those deals were. Judging by the talent on my team it wasn't much return.

 

EDIT - Okay looked up some of my trades (and it's a lot more than 6, although most have been minor). These won't include prospects or picks

 

Kipnis for Fowler and Infante

 

Revere for Morales

 

Bud Norris for Luke Scott (I certainly hope I got picks or prospects even if Norris is nothing).

 

Fowler for Fiers

 

Fiers and Soriano for some form of picks, waiver or prospect.

 

Pujols and Wainwright for Carpenter and Jose Fernandez.

 

Lohse for Soriano

 

Rollins for Ethier (I seriously hope I got something else with that one).

I dunno how you can regret the Fernandez trade, but I'll do tradesies backsies if you want.

[NorthOf49]

It was a late 1st, around 16 I think.

It was 14th! Davidson for Archer would look much worse

Those weren't regretful trades...those were all my trades. There are some that make more trades in a week in comparison to my 3 years.

How's that league trade history coming?

[NorthOf49]

How's that league trade history coming?

I'll probably do it during a free day next week (it's reading week).

 

How do you want it to look?

Better than the BBDL's.

[z3r0s]

fun to look back. Worst three trades.

 

1 -

Traded: Justin Upton, Nick Delmonico (chaff), MiLB Pick #63

For: James Paxton, Rafael Montero, Delino DeShields Jr, MiLB Pick #22 (Trea Turner)

 

2 -

Traded: Brian McCann, Pablo Sandoval, MiLB #72

For: Joe Mauer, Jon Singleton, Matt Davidson

Pablo had BLOWN that year. Spent the next long while trying to trade for a 3B while Pablo killed it. ugg.

 

Couldn't really think of a third (unless someone else can recall trade raping me). At least I have some nice wins to my name including;

- Ventura, Giolito, Fernando Rodney, MiLB #88, Bloomquist for James Sheilds, Michael Morse, MiLB #76

- Sean Doolittle for MiLB #45 and Cody Ross

- Getting Shoemaker for MiLB #52 then trading him for Barreto and a 1st round pick

- Dee Gordon for Matt Garza

[Fearthedoc]

For me the worst trade was giving Fatt Adams + Mid 30s MiLB pick for 8th overall. It's nothing too consequential, but I clearly overestimated the value for an MiLB pick. I also didn't think Adams would be relevant a year later and was under the impression I was selling high.

 

The trade I regret the most is Cueto for Pence. I still like Cueto and think he's at least as equal to Pence in value, but now I'm having a hard time acquiring another outfielder. I thought it would be an easy task to find one but it's proving rather tough.

Enjoy Gary Sanchez! That one wasn't bad, lost cause for lost cause.

Anthony Rendon.

[Dr. Dinger]

Anthony Rendon.

 

I don't think Rendon for Russell will be that bad, long-term. Rendon is overrated ATM and have an injury-plagued career. Too bad about Russell for OT, tho.

[The Cats Ass]

I'm glad you can see into the future and that you let me know he'll have an injury-plagued career. I better go trade him right away. You should probably do the same with Sale.

 

 

But ya, that thing with OT really sucks.

[z3r0s]

I didn't put that one into my 'wins' because it seemed a bit morbid.

Rendon already has an extensive injury history, Sale doesn't.

[TheHurl]

Yeah he might stub his toe on the way to the podium for his Hall of Fame speech.

I like you.

[Dr. Dinger]

I'd take the under on .350 wOBA, 20 HR, and 15 SB.

[Dr. Dinger]

Rendon? Book it.

 

I'll bet you $20, 2/3 takes it.

[The Cats Ass]

I'll bet you $20, 2/3 takes it.

 

I'd take that bet...

[Chappy]

I'd take that bet...

 

You might as well just send him the money now then.

[Spanky99]

Action!

Well he barely met those counting stats in almost 700 PA so those aren't very sensible 0/U choices.
