Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 I feel like my perceived interest in a player is always bigger if I ask out of the blue, and it shifts leverage. I'm not sure I've ever made a deal for someone I asked about unsolicited, so I stopped doing it. Yeah, that's a thing... with some owners. You know who you are! Luckily we have pricks like NJH, who are straightshooters that don't change their valuation of a player on a whim.

I'm not sure I've ever made a deal for someone I asked about unsolicited, so I stopped doing it. Direct asks rarely turn into trades, but it's more like you put out tentacles and then every so often that owner will circle back to you with something similar.
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 Carlos Correa unseats Trout for the #1 spot in Cameron's trade value series. He's probably #2 for dynasty purposes in fantasy?
jays_fever Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 The last time I checked he was sub 100 wRC

I still think it's Harper and there's a bit of a gap. He projects for a wRC+ around 150 and Correa lags behind at ~135.

Per 600 PAs Corey Seager: 164 H, 23 HR, 94 R, 70 RBI, 4 SB, .308/.380/.514, 142 wRC+ Carlos Correa: 152 H, 26 HR, 78 R, 94 RBI, 11 SB, .288/.366/.500, 135 wRC+ Strictly speaking, in our 7x7 H & OBP format, Correa might not even be the #1 dynasty SS.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 The last time I checked he was sub 100 wRC Did you last check on May 3rd?

I've always argued in favour of Seager, so you don't have to convince me. Correa likely has the bigger power/counting stats upside.

Correa likely has the bigger power/counting stats upside. Hits are a counting stat in our format, so I don't necessarily agree. Hits is the category that everyone sleeps on, but Seager is potentially an annual 200 H guy. RBI & R are virtually a wash, slight HR edge to Correa. SLG is a wash. OBP and H edge go to Seager, Correa has a very minimal advantage in SB, which isn't really a category worth banking for either player. If these guys switched stadiums it would be a very different story.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 Did P2F post that they were available? I had been waiting for him to announce that they were on the block because I was interested in both. I've asked about both numerous times
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 I still think it's Harper and there's a bit of a gap. He projects for a wRC+ around 150 and Correa lags behind at ~135. I think I'd put Harper 4th. Trout Correa Seager Harper Pretty much comes down to home park between the two shortstops for me.

He's probably #2 for dynasty purposes in fantasy? I've never regretted a trade so fast. Other than acquiring Puig for TreaT. And trading for Michael Brantley. Oh and dealing Scherzer.
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 Sometimes it's hard to believe Correa is still only 22.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 Guys, just FYI I'm listening to the BP dynasty list podcast and they call Victor Robles "Roe-bulls"... so... um... there's that.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 It's one thing to suck at your job, but it's another to make no effort to improve or actually learn how to pronounce the names.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 I like the Samardzija return a lot more than the Cueto return. I offered more for a postmortem Michael Pineda. Okay not more but I'm not a Pham-atic.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 (edited) I think I'd put Harper 4th. Trout Correa Seager Harper Pretty much comes down to home park between the two shortstops for me. He's not as much fun to include (and he's ancient at 27) but the difference between Altuve and the next 2B (Murphy and Cano) puts him in this discussion. He's now like his last 1500 PA's as a 150 wRC+ I don't see him dropping back to his projections. Just realized that Jose Ramirez has another year of eligibility at 2B at least. Put him in there too Edited July 14, 2017 by TheHurl

I'd still take Correa over Seager in dynasty, despite the career numbers being similar so far. It's close, though I think Correa has more upside overall, especially with playing in a better ballpark.

Tough to disagree with that list. I'd probably move Harper higher if he can put up his 2015 & 2017 numbers moving forward every season. After those 4, I would say its Bryant, Arenado and Altuve.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 plus he's one year younger 5 months actually
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 5 months actually My bad, off the top of my head thought Correa was born in 1995.
Laika Community Moderator Posted July 14, 2017 Author Posted July 14, 2017 SHOULD HE HAVE DONE IT!? Hey nick, This trade has been rejected in The Darrell Dynasty (3286). Giancarlo Stanton Eric Thames Michael Pineda to The Butt Stallions Evan Longoria Scott Schebler Carlos Correa to Gryffindor Comments from Gryffindor: This looks pretty bad for me (mid April) (I agree with his decision to reject it in context of course)

Giancarlo Stanton Eric Thames Michael Pineda to The Butt Stallions Evan Longoria Scott Schebler Carlos Correa to Gryffindor Comments from Gryffindor: This looks pretty bad for me (mid April) (I agree with his decision to reject it in context of course) Id still pass on it. I traded Pineda for Justin Turner and Schebler and Longo are easily the two worst players of that deal.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 Pineda's fantasy value just got zeroed out, he's the least valuable by far.
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 Id still pass on it. I traded Pineda for Justin Turner and Schebler and Longo are easily the two worst players of that deal. Is Schebler easily worse than Thames? He's four years younger and Thames has been running a 100 wRC+ since April. Need to see Thames readjust to the league now that they've adjusted to him.
Laika Community Moderator Posted July 14, 2017 Author Posted July 14, 2017 Pineda's fantasy value just got zeroed out, he's the least valuable by far. It's funny how quickly these pitchers can have no value at all. Even when they eventually come back. Who finds Lance Lynn attractive right now?

Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 Anyone remember the corpse of Tyson Ross? Looks like his younger brother is heading in the same direction before he even established himself.
