I probably should've just made it an auction in the first place, but I feel like it might be kind of poor form to go that route now, no?

 

This is the DDL. Poor form was invented here

You asked if I'd trade Correa for Stanton. I accepted and then your dick shriveled up immediately.

But how did I say it... I can't remember, I feel I didn't submit a full on offer, or I would have went through with it. It was probably a check in type of question for a possible 3-way, or an opening question to a deal involving multiple pieces.

Nope, you asked if I would trade Correa for Stanton. I guess it wasn't an offer technically, but there's kind of an expectation that if you ask a question like that, you're going to follow through.

Isn't that my LOD trade?

 

We did that exact same trade in the LOD. I remember offering you Goldy first before I traded him in that blockbuster where I got Stanton.

Okay, there's a trade to announce.

 

The Good Doctor gets: Craig Kimbrel

P2F gets: Joe Musgrove, Christin Stewart, Fernando Tatis, Jr., Beau Burrows, Dinger's 2018 1st Rd MiLB

 

Unfortunate but necessary promotions to take place: Zack Burdi and Christin Stewart.

Dinger can have Tom Eshelman if he wants, or I'm cutting him.

 

Dinger to confirm.

I had to fight to keep my crown jewels, P2F drives a hard bargain. Really didn't want Kimbrel falling into sg or jb's hands tho, this season has turned around for me, so I'm in mixed build/buy mode.

Reading Apparition Scott Kingery with 2 HR last night for Lehigh Valley. I can't give this guy away though, even though he's profiling like a young Ian Kinsler. I'll be very interested to see where he lands on midseason lists.

For 75% of these fantasy guys, they don't recognize prospects until someone puts them on a list.

I had a guy in another league tell me I had no good pitching prospects.

 

All I had was:

 

Kolby Allard

David Paulino

Triston Mckenzie

Luke Weaver

Mike Soroka

Arian Morejon

Jack Flaherty

Fernando Romero

Chris Paddack

Thomas Szapucki

Nick Neidert

Cody Reed

Tyler Mahle

 

I have to wait for the mid-season lists to come out before these guys have any value.

People are so wary of pop-up prospects. Where my stat-scouts at?

I'd say it has more to do with Kingery being jammed in Dinger's NA slot and most potential trade partners already have their big clubs loaded with prospects promoted early, but hey any opportunity to look down your nose at people right?

 

TBH I mostly traded for Kimbrel with an eye towards beating you this week.

Wanna trade him to me after this week then? I had the top offer until you got in the way.

Yup. I think there`s more value in having MLB roster spots available for prospecting on MLB breakout talent than in having them tied up on borderline top-50 prospects with NA status. Kingery would be a True Cardinal now if he were farm eligible.

This is mostly it. Francis Martes is a more highly ranked prospect and even he held little value because he takes up a roster spot.

No thanks. I intend to keep your record of playoff futility intact.

It's going to happen anyway, I don't know why you're pretending otherwise. When you send me the Vargas for Kingery offer in a couple weeks, I promise not to say I told you so (when I click decline).

You should just get on with it and pull the trigger on the last thing you asked me about.

Also because he walks an atrociously unacceptable ratio of hitters.

Yeah that's off the table now that I have Kimbrel. I did give it a lot of consideration, however that player is someone I really didn't want to part with. You admittedly offered better value than P2F, but with him I was able to do a deal without giving up that guy.

Makes sense. I think I'll probably just keep him. I might be overly optimistic, but I think I can make the jump to contender for back-end playoff spot next year if I can find a couple of starters in the offseason.
