Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 How far will Ike Davis slide down the old waiver wire? To me at 20. Everyone else will be too afraid to use their claim position.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 damn Ike, gets traded like a day after I figured I can't hold on to him any longer.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 and apparently I couldn't have picked him back up even if I wanted too because it was me that put him on waivers.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 BTW I have one guy interested in Melky Cabrera. I'm looking for a pretty good prospect since he appears to be back to the Melky Cabrera of 2011-2012, and prefer a prospect to a pick. Don't mind holding on to him if I don't get what I want.
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 My team stinks. Our matchup is way closer than the score indicates.
TRM Verified Member Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 I hate losing. I've done it 4 times in this league, and twice has been to you. You're about to get a 3/5 majority.

Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Imagine Morneau goes deep again and silver wins the matchup?
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Or a HR by him, obviously..I'm uneasy. Anyway, with my 'pen being a dumpster fire, does anyone have a quality RP (not necessarily closer, but preferably) for SALE? PM me. Yes. Expect a PM shortly. EDIT: NVM I can't think of anything that makes sense.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Exams this week...followed by 7 straight days of 12 hour workdays so I'll be ignoring/skimming all emails that don't jump out as someone losing their mind and offering me Harper or Trout. But with that said...I've got a guy on my bench that is ripping the s*** out of the ball (Mesoraco) and three 3B eligible players (Longoria, Seager and Santana). I already knew i was a borderline team, and my horrid start won't help. So chances are in May I'll be making a decision to get younger/more upside. Be thinking about deals.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Kyle Gibson, baseball's newest ace, he's available.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Why wait when you can get him now at a reasonable price?
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Why wait when you can get him now at a reasonable price? Define reasonable.
Sammy225 Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Is this the week that Sammy takes his rightful place at the top of the Monte Cristo???
Sammy225 Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 You're already there. This is the week BTS takes his rightful place at the top of the Monte Cristo. I don;t know do you have any players left?
Sammy225 Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Z3r0s got very unlucky. How often does Neil Walker go all Barry Bonds in a week lol.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 I'll be up if anyone wants to talk trade. Have tomorrow off!
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Are you kidding me? Was going to add Joba tomorrow..you're bad on the inside. e: Valverde strikes again, f***. Lol there were like three guys I was debating between. Went with Joba for the K potential.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Are you kidding me? Was going to add Joba tomorrow..you're bad on the inside. e: Valverde strikes again, f***. Lucky I bought in on Kyle Farnsworth the other day. Didn't expect he was going to promoted to the closers role. We'll see how this lasts.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Germen will be getting saves at first blowup, which will be soon! I just picked him up as well and dropped Anthony Bass. I don't see Bass being the closer in Houston, and at least German will put up better K rates than Bass.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Germen will be getting saves at first blowup, which will be soon! Nope, it will be Carlos Torres. The Mets like him and he's been lights out. 1.84 FIP, crazy-good PD peripherals.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 I love watching you guys fight over bullpen grenades.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 I love watching you guys fight over bullpen grenades. What for Anibal Sanchez? Saw him on your block.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 I don't like to negotiate in public but feel free to shoot me an email and let me know what pieces are in play.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 I love watching you guys fight over bullpen grenades. My pen has a 1.86 ERA this year with 12 holds. No grenades here!
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 I hope Uehara's arm falls off. Actually, I don't mean that. I love Uehara. But I'm sick of you having a lights-out pen. It's definitely not waterproof with Chapman gone, if Koji misses any time it will be average. He threw 80 IP last year so it is something I worry about. Still though, I can't imagine being excited about Farnsworth or Valverde.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Bye week has backed you away from the cliff? I think my team is going to get better in the coming weeks with some bodies come off the DL like Mike Minor, Victorino and Chacin. Also, with guys like Will Myers turning it around would be a big boost as well. I still have Kennedy, Kendrick, Soriano, V-Mart, Tex etc OTB since I'm looking still to get younger or shake things up. Not going to force anything, willing to be patient for the right offer for those guys. Would love to add another No. 1 or 2 starter if possible.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 My pen has a 1.86 ERA this year with 12 holds. No grenades here! I like Perkins and Peralta, the rest is replacement level. Probably an average bullpen overall. If you don't have 2 or 3 solid closers, you are effectively punting the category.
