KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 I weep for my farm, details upcoming on the 12th. The 12th? You're announcing a trade five days in advance?
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 I'm promoting Tim Anderson to my MLB team. I'm surprised he didn't run more. Only 10 SB in 2/3 of a season?
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 The 12th? You're announcing a trade five days in advance? I had a vision, horrible gasoline fight accident involving Urias, Giolito, Glasnow, and DeLeon.
BTS Community Moderator Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 I'm surprised he didn't run more. Only 10 SB in 2/3 of a season? Yeah, I'm hoping it was just a case of a rookie being tentative. I'd like to see 10-15 homers and 25 steals this year.
Laika Community Moderator Posted February 7, 2017 Author Posted February 7, 2017 Hard to run a lot when you don't get on base a lot. I wonder if Anderson will blossom into an Ian Desmond. I could see it.
BTS Community Moderator Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Hard to run a lot when you don't get on base a lot. I wonder if Anderson will blossom into an Ian Desmond. I could see it. The more I watched him, the more optimistic I was that there might be something there. He's not an Andrus-type slap hitter - there's power there. The big question is whether the approach will develop enough to make him a viable fantasy player.
P2F Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Yeah, I'm hoping it was just a case of a rookie being tentative. I'd like to see 10-15 homers and 25 steals this year. I think we will see those numbers this year.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 He probably has some big trade cooking with a couple of his stud pitching prospects. Sale?
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 had some interest in Bour a few weeks ago. Looking to move him for a waiver upgrade.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Sale? Yeah I'm gonna trade my super elite ace for prospects.
BTS Community Moderator Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Sale to Dinger for Urias and De Leon? Weird change of direction for the good doctor.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Sale to Dinger for Urias and De Leon? Weird change of direction for the good doctor. Sub in Giolito for one of them. Dinger wants to bring him back home
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Sale to Dinger for Urias and De Leon? Weird change of direction for the good doctor. V light
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Sub in Giolito for one of them. Dinger wants to bring him back home Reminds me of your Kershaw for Teheran and Archie Bradley deal.
BTS Community Moderator Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Reminds me of your Kershaw for Teheran and Archie Bradley deal. yikes
Laika Community Moderator Posted February 7, 2017 Author Posted February 7, 2017 Milb 60 to Boxy, Hutchison & Wall to me Andrew Hutchinson? Why would you want him?
Laika Community Moderator Posted February 7, 2017 Author Posted February 7, 2017 Reminds me of your Kershaw for Teheran and Archie Bradley deal. lmao
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 had some interest in Bour a few weeks ago. Looking to move him for a waiver upgrade. If Chris Carter signs in Japan before the cutoff, ring me up. Otherwise, I'll just keep Carter and hope he finds a North American gig.
BTS Community Moderator Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 If Chris Carter signs in Japan before the cutoff, ring me up. Otherwise, I'll just keep Carter and hope he finds a North American gig. Napoli apparently close to deal with Texas. Maybe Carter signs soon after that?
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Napoli apparently close to deal with Texas. Maybe Carter signs soon after that? Apparently the Yankees could be in on Carter too. It seems like a lot of teams are sniffing around him but probably no one has guaranteed him a starting job.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Milb 60 to Boxy, Hutchison & Wall to me Yar
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Yar Eh, this is a Gibbers trade. You'll never use that pick and you'll have a lot of difficulty consolidating it. I understand wanting to get something for an asset you're going to throw away, but IMO you would have been better served to deny Silvergun that asset than to just receive a pick you'll probably end up wasting anyway. You could have re-drafted Wall again some time in the future, or picked him up in a waiver draft at an appropriate time. That's just me though, I derive a lot of pleasure from spiting people.

Yes, I'm so worried about Silvergun getting a low end prospect and a AAAA reliever.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Yes, I'm so worried about Silvergun getting a low end prospect and a AAAA reliever. I AM worried! Everything that ******* touches turns to gold. Plus Coors.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 Bour + Waiver 55 for Waiver 23
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 I guess that puts me in a weird spot as I've already made my cuts. Do I go back and get a player I cut, or just have 1 fewer player coming out of the waiver draft. Doesn't matter to me much, I'll accept the leagues decision.

Apparently the Yankees could be in on Carter too. It seems like a lot of teams are sniffing around him but probably no one has guaranteed him a starting job. This is official now. At first I was excited about the possibility but then I realized that as a right-handed hitter, he won't really benefit from Yankee Stadium and he'll be on the short side of the platoon despite not really having a platoon split so it's kind of meh but at least it's MLB.

Cuts aren't official til the drop dead date, you're good.
