I will trade you the best catching prospect in baseball, whether you think that's Willson Contreras or Jorge Alfaro.

 

Alfaro could be a good get for you. Was tired of waiting out his injuries. I think it is going to be someone i am going to be kicking myself over.....

 

Sandoval for Alfaro?

OF or good prospects are the best fits. The odds of me panic trading him for a paltry return are pretty small tho.

 

I have numerous top 50 prospects that I could deal. Baretto, Newcomb, and Francis Martes.

He's probably going to be like Gary Sanchez and Jesus Montero, intriguing power but dubious ability to stick behind the plate. Although at least Alfaro has a cannon arm. Personally I like Contreras a lot more but if "The Legend" can live up to his nickname then I'll definitely take it.

This is true really good upside but would not surprise anyone if he completely tanks.

Newcomb is a hot mess. Back to back seasons with 6+ BB/9. As an LOD owner, this pains me. It won't be too much longer til we write him off as a starter and pray for an Andrew Miller outcome.

I always had a thing for hot messes.

I've always maintained that Newcomb suxxxxx and I've been given no reason to reevaluate that stance.

Hell, this league cock blocks every league.

 

This league drives the perceived value of assets across all leagues on this message board. That's why I play the propaganda game.

So my point is valid.

Yeah, don't worry. It's not like his already-below-average velo is down 1.6 MPH and his walk rate has doubled. Nothing to worry about.

 

Didnt he strike out like 20 in spring training and walk no one? Im not too concerned.

Geez robot, what matters more: 17 practice innings or 37 real innings?

Who has a better WAR from this moment until their respective retirements, Mark Appel or AJ Pollock?

 

Another intriguing question. Keuchel can still throw baseballs, but can one hit without an elbow?

I traped you, got a year of MVPollock, Appel is literally nothing, I don't even own Pollock anymore and also managed to get a pretty fair return for him.

 

I don't know why you keep going to this well.

You've pimped this trape far too much, and it might hinder your ability to engage further in this activity in the future. You should follow the Dinger and North example.

I actually missed you trading him. I hope that whatever you got explodes though

As it should be. I wouldn't expect anything less.

I'm not really doing anything in my matchup but starting CCC and Smoak last night was pretty satisfying all the same.

CCC is a must-start right now, he's gone completely nuclear.

He's started every day for me. I don't really have a viable alternative.

CCC was a really good add by you. Fangraphs DC projections are up to 234/329/503 with 35-HR power (122 wRC+). They're buying a talent change.
