A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[TRM]

I've given you so many gifts over the years, Boxy, and you're still mean to me.

 

I literally told you to add AJ Pollock as a FA because I felt sorry for you. That literally happened.

 

Pics or it didn't

lol, is this true? And then Boxy squandered him on Appel. This makes the story so much better.

This isn't the first time that NJH has claimed this to happen. I do believe him, I just want to see some sig worthy quotes.

Underrated move of the offseason: flipping Turner and his bum knee for Kang and his bum (but not chronically) knee

 

I knew it was going to come down to who recovered better... but damnit Turner.

[Laika]

I needs a CF(8)

 

Are you looking for picks or prospects for Handsome Jake? Perhaps one of my SPs? Not sure who interests you, if anyone...please don't be too mean =(

 

If you don't see anything you like, np and I'll drop it.

 

//////////

 

Hmmm. Marisnick for Dahl, maybe?

 

.....

 

Hint: Add AJ Pollock before someone else does.

27 years old, could go .270/.320; 10HR/20SB.

 

///////////

 

Sorry for the delay, was trying to get a sense of what kind of return you were looking for. I'm not in a rush to sell low on Dahl and I think he's a superior asset (or will be when all is said and done)

 

Weird though, each guy who's owned Handsome Jake has asked for Dahl in return.

 

////////////

 

Dahl has more upside but he's also maybe three years out, and beautiful Jacob is a potential 20/20 present big leaguer. So I can see why it's an obvious trade ask - similar dudes and far off upside vs. present day (slightly lower) upside.

Any interest in de aza or JBJr?

 

////////////

 

I really just need a plug for the position. I'm probably better off trading with someone who isn't good at fantasy, lol.

 

///////////

 

Maybe pick up AJ Pollock? He could end up starting in Arizona, could go 10/20 with a slashline in the .270/.330 range.

 

////////////

 

Oh, good call. Figured he'd been taken, thanks.

[Laika]

Looks like I actually had to drop the hint twice before he clued in. Wow.

[BTS]

Marisnick quotes added unexpected lulz to that

[TRM]

Finding after the fact negotiations is so much fun.

[Boxcar]

ok, there's no coming back from this. Ultimate rekt.

 

Could've at least edited out our real names though you dingleberry.

[z3r0s]

Sammy. I'm trying to tank here... please tell your squad to pick it up.

[BTS]

ok, there's no coming back from this. Ultimate rekt.

You took this hit well. No glass chin here.

[Laika]

Yeah I did. Was a bit too hasty once I saw the email thread. Got me excited.

[TRM]

May as well resign and give your team to Trouba.

[Boxcar]

May as well resign and give your team to gruber.

 

If that's what you guys want, I will comply. Do you have a bunch of the shittier Blue Jays rostered or something?

 

e: was it really necessary to edit that post to reflect a different idiot? They are all the same.

[BTS]

I mean this in the most respectful way possible to Boxy, but Gruber really couldn't do any worse.

Plus piss-poor luck in the lottery. Plus the death of his best prospect.

Finding after the fact negotiations is so much fun.

 

No, they're not.

 

I just looked back on a couple. Silvergun had offered me Altuve+ for Cliff Lee...

[BTS]

I think the only e-mail gem I'd be involved in was Lynn negotiations from four years ago where I tried to get Holliday, Grandal, and a nobody breakout player named Donaldson.

[TRM]

No, they're not.

Remember you pillaged me with CarGo2.0 for Shark, and now it looks like I pillaged you.

Trades can be weird.

I have those. Let me find them.

[BTS]

Post em' up if you can. With names redacted plz.

[TRM]

I have those. Let me find them.

 

Wow. I kind of wish I didn't. Did you know you offered Syndergaard?

[BTS]

Wow. I kind of wish I didn't. Did you know you offered Syndergaard?

 

Completely forgot about that.

[The Cats Ass]

Wow. I kind of wish I didn't. Did you know you offered Syndergaard?

 

Instead he threw him in with Felix Hernandez for Jose Abreu.

Instead he threw him in with Felix Hernandez for Jose Abreu.

 

And then you threw him in with Glasnow for Evan Longoria

Min: I got backups that are legit for all of these positions at the moment, and I want some Starters.. let's make a deal!

 

BTS: I'd be interested in an Of/sp swap. Make me a wise offer.

 

Min: I know this isn't what you asked for (I will provide an offer like that shortly) but would you be interested in a Grandal+Donaldson package?

 

BTS: That depends on the cost. Both those guys come with pretty uncertain production. But yes.

 

Min: OK well here is what I see. Given my backups and position eligibility, pretty much any batter is available. Looking at your starters, I am gonna assume that Felix and Iwakuma are not in the picture, and Archer, Hernandez don't really make sense for me, and Davis Doubront and Locke don't really interest me. So that leaves Harvey (Who I am guessing would cost a King's ransom), Cobb and Lynn. I am particularly partial to Lynn. Would it take an OF to land him, or would a combination of upgrades at 2 or 3 positions for you make it work?

 

BTS: I think there's a deal to be made here. Your two least valuable outfielders are Rios and Holliday. This being a dynasty league, I wouldn't trade Lynn straight up for either one - he's been at least as good as both this year (he's been the 50th most valuable yahoo player) and there's a 6+ year age gap.

I would be interested in an expanded deal in which Lynn is the most valuable asset though. What would I need to add to him to get one of Rios/Holliday as well as Grandal and Donaldson?

 

*end night one*

 

BTS: Hey, Just wondering where you stand on what we were discussing yesterday. I'm trying to sort through my offers.

 

Min: It's gonna be hard for me to work on a deal, I am at a cottage for the weekend with limited email access. I like a deal structured around Rios for Lynn. I value them roughly equally, but I understand why you think Lynn's age is a factor versus Rios. If you have to have this sorted out by tomorrow evening, then go for it, byt I definitely still am interested.

 

BTS: I like the potential framework of a deal with you enough that I'll wait on other moves so we can try and work something out.

 

Min: OK. Let's talk tomorrow night? I'll be home/sober then.

 

Min: OK. Let's talk.. I like Lynn a lot. I worry though, about having to give up three good pieces for only one piece I am truly that interested in. What is your interest level in Murphy? Would a Murphy and Rios package be enough to land Lynn? Alternatively, what small piece would you kick in for a Rios+Donaldson, or a Rios+Grandal deal?

Let's keep this discussion open, I really think we are a good fit for something here.

 

BTS: I'm not very interested in Murphy.

 

 

 

What if the 2nd piece coming back from me was not small? Something like:

 

Holliday, Donaldson, Grandal

for

Lynn, Syndergaard?

 

Min: Ugh. I think you win that deal, fairly handily. Also, I am not sure how much sense it makes to trade "now" assetts for Syndergaard, given my circumstances.

Also, I would prefer to trade Rios over Holliday, I think. That's not a snagging point though, just a throw-in point I wanted to make.

Lemme think about it all. I'll try to come up with a counter offer, but if you have a different proposal, I am all ears. There is still a deal to be found here somewhere.

 

BTS: That's fair. If I'm getting two pieces, the two I'd like are Holliday and Donaldson. So I guess the question becomes what other smaller major league asset goes your way. Maybe give me an idea of what names would make sense for you.

[TRM]

I lost the rest of the thread, or that's where it ended

[Laika]

Are you idiots talking about Alex Rios there?

2013 Alex Rios was a huge part of my Prime Minister's Trophy winning offence.
