I'd be curious to know Boxy's endgame on this deal. Planning on competing next year? Or planning to flip him for a bigger haul when he's healthy?

Berrios has a 65 FV on his fastball, 60 curve and then two other plus pitches.

 

Those numbers are in pesos. Converts to Bullpen

 

He's also not 21 yet.

 

So naive young Boxy

Either or. The value seemed pretty decent so I took it.

Your "f*** prospects" approach has done wonders for your big league team.

hahah I totally didn't realize I traded your boy Matz to arch nemesis BTS. That makes this trade even better, cheering for him is gonna be pretty awkward eh?

Boxy and I just closed our second deal in as many weeks:

 

To Min:

 

AJ "Michael Brantley" Pollock

Pat Neshek

 

To Boxy:

Mark Appel

In a roundabout way this also closes my deal with North from March, and I know this will interest him so I'll share it.

 

Hanley Ramirez was swapped for Cueto, Pollock and Neshek

I think I may have been able to do a bit more with Appel, but it fills two roles for my team this year so I went for it. I needed an everyday CF (and I do think Pollock is due to take the next step this year) and I needed a Holds guy and Neshek looks like he's gonna be one of the best this year.

Really? I think you did damn well.

 

Confusing move for Boxy, was the one competent hitter making everyone else self conscious?

 

What's confusing about it?

I think I did great for him in terms of standalone value, but what I mean is that he was a piece I probably could have packaged up for a really big piece, had I chose to go in that direction.

Having discussed Appel with people in the LOD... I don't think he carries that kind of value.

You might be right. Boxy was a fan of him though, the conversation actually started with me trying to sell Bailey.

 

Speaking of Bailey, if anyone who is playing for next year wants to swap him for a pitcher who actually plays this year or a SS perhaps, get in touch.

Well u c, trading your lone competent hitter for yet another prospect confused me, as did why you'd trade Pollock without shopping him, allowing TRM to surprise-sex you value wise.

 

Crystal?

 

I think you may simultaneously overrate Pollock and underrate Appel.

I can't really see that trade as a big win for either side. Pollock is a league average OF, the CF elig is nice if you need it. Seems like reasonable value to me.

To those who PM'd me on Bailey, I'm going out now for the night to watch the fight but will get back to you sometime tomorrow.

Scherzer may be on the move soon if anyone wants to sneak in an offer and potentially snipe him

I was enjoying A-Rod's resurgence. silvergun ruins everything.

 

I wonder who you'll acquire for 3B next year? (I realize that I'm on shaky ground with this comment while rostering Headley)

Like this more for FTD, but I must admit I'm very uninformed about Snell so take what I say with a grain of salt.

 

While we're discussing FTD, at what point do we write the obituary for this once proud franchise?

My early money is on one of Martin Prado, Josh Harrison or Brett Lawrie.
