Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Yeah, I saw that. I'm really hoping the ankle/elbow were behind the poor season and he's back to normal when healthy next year. Ugh, me too.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 This is the first time I've seen TCA make a bad deal (well, that is before Shields gets TJS next week) Which could be possible. He's got a lot of miles on that arm. He's also started throwing a lot more cutters recently. And if he ends up in Fenway or Yankee stadium next year, his numbers have been pretty bad in those parks so far in his career.
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I'm looking to acquire the best 1B/OF/UTIL bat I can get for my first round MiLB pick. Mostly looking for an older guy who will be discounted because of his age. If you're out of the playoff race, hit me up with an offer.

Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Chris Johnson. I'll take A-Gonz off your hands.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Would take more then a 1st...
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Would take more then a 1st... You can say that again!
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Heh @ a "FIRST ROUNDER!" Aka pick 19/20. Please I almost got beat by Boxy! It's looking like pick 13 at this point.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Isn't the deadline still 6 days away?
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I've had two Buchholz starts against me this season. One of them was a 12 K, 0 BB shutout. Now it's looking like another shutout tonight. Unreal.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Yeah but acquiring SP is difficult when you scoop them within like a damn hour of being posted! I didn't even have my wits about me and Wada was gone. I'm very very sneaky.

BTS Community Moderator Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I'd have likely given you something more interesting than a bad future-COF/1B prospect for Cahill. Why?
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Or not. Ugh. dat jinx though
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 What player is the COF-1B, Silvergun? Eric Jagielo
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I'd have likely given you something more interesting than a bad future-COF/1B prospect for Cahill. He's a Yankee though, which means he's a winner.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Well there's maybe 3 guys on my farm that aren't better, and they all SUCK, so low asking price/desperate need play a factor, BUT: He's 26, highest K/9, sw str% of career so far and he's shown elite GB% and durability in the past combined with average BB/9 so if he combines them all next year he's basically Fister lite. You like him more than I do. I really can't abide guys who struggle to put up 2 K/BB.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I like him as much as one of my meh prospects dictates, this was mostly supposed to be a rip on Jagielo you testicle. Well you just threw up a Doug Fister comp dumnass.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 You like him more than I do. I really can't abide guys who struggle to put up 2 K/BB. 2.58 K/BB since his return to the rotation. With only 1 HR allowed. And a 3.43 ERA.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 2.58 K/BB since his return to the rotation. With only 1 HR allowed. And a 3.43 ERA. Yeah, but Steamer and ZiPS think he's a sub-2 K/BB guy with an ERA in the 3.95-4.15 range. I dunno, I just really hate Trevor Cahill. I picked him up while drunk at 2:30 AM two weeks ago, watched him and his fat gut sweat through two starts while waging war on my K/BB, and then decided to replace him.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Looks like Shields left me a nice good bye present... A huge heaping pile of s***.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Yeah, but Steamer and ZiPS think he's a sub-2 K/BB guy with an ERA in the 3.95-4.15 range.

Is steamer or zips ever actually right...?
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Looks like Shields left me a nice good bye present... A huge heaping pile of s***. Ouch. It is absolutely insane that you might miss the playoffs.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Ouch. It is absolutely insane that you might miss the playoffs. I agree. I feel that there are supernatural forces at play here.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I agree. I feel that there are supernatural forces at play here. IMO your roster was clearly top-5 for most of the season, and the power ranking reflect that.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I agree. I feel that there are supernatural forces at play here. IMO your roster was clearly top-5 for most of the season, and the power ranking reflect that. Good thing we have such an amazing PR maker.
BTS Community Moderator Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Wat. Hasn't his cutter always been his bread and butter?
havok24 Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 God damn the Dbacks are awful.
jays_fever Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I think I'll always hate the DBags for hitting Cutch for no legit reason. It's pretty funny though watching Bauer and SKaggs succeed away from that shithole
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I don't want to sound like that guy, but...can commissioners who process trades actually indicate it in the thread when they do so? In the past there has been backup and it makes it easier for me at least to see whether or not a deal is totally done so I'm not wasting my time checking the sheet.
