Laika Community Moderator Posted July 9, 2020 Author Posted July 9, 2020 Org basically trading for three dead cat bounce candidates
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 9, 2020 Posted July 9, 2020 I feel like Carrasco has a few good years left in him if he doesn’t get cancer again.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted July 9, 2020 Posted July 9, 2020 Org basically trading for three dead cat bounce candidates That's exactly what I did, but all I need is for one of them to bounce back and I'm happy with this deal. Carrasco could still be good, Kimbrel won't sign as a FA midway through the year again, and Miggy is less fat I guess? I don't think z3r0s or anyone else accepts such a deal if any of them return to like 90% of their past selves so I'm paying high at current value in order to acquire such a possibility.
Laika Community Moderator Posted July 9, 2020 Author Posted July 9, 2020 I feel like Carrasco has a few good years left in him if he doesn’t get cancer again. I dunno about few. 33 years old, leukemia, extensive injury history in his career.

Yip, could be great for you or look bad in retrospect. All depends. And for me I'm sort of taking the "better a year early than a year late" approach
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 I feel like guys who tend to throw 150 IP and can’t be effective over 200+ (ie Carrasco) actually get a value bump this season.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 Update! Mostly MadBum and... I dunno... Braun (?) as useful pieces on the block Would like to take offers on some vet, but still good players. On the table; Will go if the rebuild starts; ------------------------------- - Jose Abreu - Eduardo Escobar - Ryan Braun (shiny new DH helps) - Mad Bum - Carlos Carrasco - Craig Kimbrel - Taylor Rogers - Will Smith - Joe Kelly Not aggressively shopping, but not off the table ----------------------------------------------------- - Willson Contreras - Aaron Nola - Carlos Martinez Other Junk that I'll probably keep and flip if they have a nice season (but if you like em, offer up!) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Miggy - Thames - Alex Wood Not looking to deal, but hey, if the price is right really nobody is off the table ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Story - Albies - Lourdes - Kingery Probably went too fast, but I like a lot of the pieces that came back in. My 3rd favorite hitter from the 2020 draft, and my 2nd favorite pitcher. Hitters; Nick Gonzales, Austin Hendricks, Kyle Lewis Pitchers; Mitch Keller, Max Meyer, Jon Morejon, Michel Baez (prob 2 RP's lol, but at least they are close as my farm will be jammed)
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted July 12, 2020 Posted July 12, 2020 Big Bad Bum is ready to help you win the CovidCup (and beyond, he's only 30). Hit me up!
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted July 12, 2020 Posted July 12, 2020 Big Bad Bum is ready to help you win the CovidCup (and beyond, he's only 30). Hit me up! True, Bumgarner is more likely to break his face on a dirt track than contract the covid
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted July 12, 2020 Posted July 12, 2020 Or in a random rodeo he competes in... but on the plus side, he doesn't seem like an opt out candidate
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Actually, I'm not sure that's true. Joe Ross, Tyson Ross, and Ian Desmond all have Red Flags. I'm not sure about Felix because it could be hidden under his green flag. I'm going to e-mail fantrax. Did Fantrax end up getting back to you? Price still is still not eligible for anywhere. I hope I don’t have to punt a roster spot because of this.
Laika Community Moderator Posted July 15, 2020 Author Posted July 15, 2020 It will all be sorted before the season starts. Trust
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 Can we have a 1 season rule where we can drop the player if they opt out for this season. With a predetermined date that we have to pick them up again by?

Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted July 18, 2020 Posted July 18, 2020 I found Boxbike as a youngin'... And I found one of you, Spank
Beans Verified Member Posted July 19, 2020 Posted July 19, 2020 And I found one of you, Spank Not even close, dude. This is Spanky as a youngin'...
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 Fantrax added an option to allow Covid-19 opt outs to be moved tot he IL. Try moving Price now TCA.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 Fantrax added an option to allow Covid-19 opt outs to be moved tot he IL. Try moving Price now TCA. Saw this. Fantrax is the best
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 Fantrax added an option to allow Covid-19 opt outs to be moved tot he IL. Try moving Price now TCA. Noticed the change a couple days ago. I should have never doubted Fantrax.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 Ugh, Gavin Lux apparently might not be the starting 2B for the Dodgers. Wtf.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 Ugh, Gavin Lux apparently might not be the starting 2B for the Dodgers. Wtf. The Dodgers are doing some ******** with their roster management.
Laika Community Moderator Posted July 21, 2020 Author Posted July 21, 2020 The Dodgers are doing some ******** with their roster management. Lux has 28 days of service time. I guess the goal would be to keep him down for a couple of weeks so that at the end of 2020 he still is just shy of 1.000 Ruthless
Laika Community Moderator Posted July 21, 2020 Author Posted July 21, 2020 Damn, Shed Long was a FA, s***. I was surprised to see him dropped. Then I didn't want to to use my waiver priority on him so I was surprised to see him pass through
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 Yeah, I missed it lol... that's a sweet free asset.
