The fact that Gibbers traded two young guys for Upton isn't getting enough attention.

 

Probably targeting the #7 overall pick so he can draft some hot 16 year old. Upton was just a throw in.

Neil Walker and Alex Gordon are firmly on the trade block. Could trade one or both. Together even.

 

Willing to consider various types of returns.

The strangest part was he didn't even want the #7 pick at first. He was asking about Upton + Jones.

Someone should go check on Gibbers IRL.

DDL - Appel for Pollock

IRL - Appel is the 4th piece in a trade for a reliever.

I prefer Upton over C-Mart, position player over Pitcher. Shoulder was a concern to me.

 

And I should be able to snag someone pretty good with the 7th pick

 

I like it for you. Upton >>>> CMart.

 

Shoulder injuries are the worst. I wouldn't touch Martinez with gloves on right now.

 

I think the gap between #7 and Mazara is smaller than the gap between Upton and Martinez. Upton is still good, a top fantasy OF, and relatively young.

I love deGrom but that's a good return if you're a Bogaerts guy. Interesting.

 

I'm looking to add a co-manager, who will have a good amount of autonomy. King and GD are already in the mix. Apply via PM or email.

 

Can I apply?

North, your team is probably at it's weakest since year one. What's happening with the Pharm Team?

I think I know what happened and it's something that affects many successful organization and is difficult to avoid. I built and managed my team in the first two years based on a few philosophies that were successful. Noticing the philosophies were successful, my team became an even more extreme version of them, a version that was not optimal. I need to get back to having a deeper set rotation with less streaming and two closers. I trust Hanley so my offense is kinda set unless something comes along.

 

Yeah, you really started pushing the boundaries when it came to using waiver wire guys for the pitching staff. Your team is still a playoff team, but it's not in the conversation for the top-2-3 teams this year for me like it was the last two years.

No, because that would hamper the league's integrity. Which is what I'm trying to prevent with this co-manager addition.

 

So you are taking a step back for the year so that the DDL does not become subject to to the integrity sapping insider trading issues that JFaS brought to the BBDL and the LoD.

 

That's noble.

Have you considered replacing North with someone who would allow us to maintain the high standards of integrity that we've all been enjoying since the league's inception?

Once he picks a co-manager we can assemble the Darrel Triumvirate Tribunal and conduct a thorough review on Balco Pharm Team's internal policies as they pertain to this issue.

 

If we are not satisfied with Balco Pharm Team's internal policy direction, we reserve the right to issue an indefinite lay-off of Northof49, subject to discretionary withdrawal every 6 months.

It feels like GD is going to walk away from all of this the permanent manager of the BALCO Pharm Team.

No offense to North but I don't see why anyone would have an issue with that.

Well, North is an asset to any league, but if for some reason he wasn't able to continue, GD would be a great replacement.

On merit alone I see no reason to pick GD.

 

But in the spirit of affirmative action, he might have to make the shortlist.
