Probably a fair trade. Not sure which side I would prefer.

 

I'm surprised KK traded Reed. Seemed like he was pretty married to AJ.

 

For some reason I don't really like Zimmer.

Not sure why you though that. Traded him in LOD. Mentioned him to 5-6 owners in this league this offseason. Brought up Zimmer a lot as well.

Fine, you guys win. I dropped him. Don't go fighting over him.

 

Also, did you know BA's #20 ranked prospect was on the FA list?

 

How's this for idiotic? I've been lining up for days in the FC Waiver draft with Martes as my primary target, and yet it never even occurred to me to see if he was owned here. For some reason I was convinced that North already owned him as a prospect. Needless to say, nice add. North is really slipping.

I have agreed to trade Puig to King Kat for Zimmer and Reed. Really tough choice as I got two great offers I really liked. Hopefully I picked the right one!

 

Nice trade. Not sure which side is better. It all depends how soon Puig dies, and if Reed is Goldschmidt or Billy Butler.

I seen him last week but thought he and Frankie Montas was the same person.

I had a safer deal from NJH and I was agonizing between the two. Floor vs. ceiling. Hope I made the right choice.

 

Think either way I got a good return, though. Thanks to everyone who threw their name in and thanks for your patience.

And a big f*** you to everyone who expressed interest but couldn't find the balls to make a real offer?

 

... whoever that might have been...

I almost always go with ceiling if I'm on the fence.

They're kinda similar, both power fastball/slider guys without third pitches. Martes has better command tho.

So you're saying I should've taken the other deal...dammit

I thought you said NJH's offer was the (safer = lower floor)?

 

 

 

Edit: Oh... I get it now. Nice burn.

Wise decision. Zimmer and Reed are each better than anybody on NJH's farm. Turner is going to suxxxxx. Like a lot.

 

I have it on good authority he's going to be "dynamic"... argument over!

Good luck stealing all those bases when you get the bat knocked out of your hands every AB. He blows.

My offer was three pitchers. Only one of them was on the farm.

 

I'm not sure why anybody would be down on Turner. He has a broad skill set and probably enough power for Jimmy Rollins type fantasy production.

 

I would say that I have 2 or 3 prospects better than Zimmer. Nothing close to Reed though, obviously. Zimmer goes in the Marisnick bucket for me. The whiff in 2015 was real.

I'm down on Turner cause he has no power. Jimmy Rollins had power. If anybody is the next J-Roll, it's Crawford.

I have deduced your offer to be Raisel, Hendricks, and either Manaea or Kopech -- obviously taking advantage of Boxy's known love for Hendricks. Strong offer, I still prefer Reed though.

If this was the offer Boxy made the right choice.

Yeah I would take Turner over Zimmer methinks but Correa kind of inhibits my need for him. Dunno what Dinger is smoking.

 

I think you're a bit harsh on Zimmer though. Quit stat scouting and use your eyes.

njh was clearly offering Iglesias + Manaea + Hendricks.

 

I had to send back big Clay though and that kind of weighed on me maybe more than it should have.

Wise idea by NJH to try to sell high on Hendricks/Raisel's hype and buy low on Puig. Couldn't pull it off, but NJH has a knack for striking at the right time.

Zimmer is Christian Yelich

My love for Hendricks is completely logical, but then remembered part of his appeal is supposed to be that people undervalued him, which NJH clearly does not. I really like Manaea too. Was very hard to go the other way.
