Ah crap, I just realized Gattis won't have OF next season. Poop. I guess I could trade one of him or Grandal, probably OB. Dee Gordon is also available cheap now.

 

What do you consider cheap for Gordon?

[Dr. Dinger]

What do you consider cheap for Gordon?

 

Someone better than Shelby Miller but worse than Aaron Sanchez.

[Dr. Dinger]

Can someone change Chappy to jaysblue in the Google Dick?

[BTS]

Will do that and process trades tonight

[jaysblue]

To Dinger:

Porcello

 

To me:

Grandal

[BTS]

I refuse to believe that trade is real

[Dr. Dinger]

Confirmed

I didn't get any sleep last night, trust me.

[Orgfiller]

Wtf?

He won't last the season on your team

[Boxcar]

I wouldn't have guessed that Porcello is younger than Grandal.

[Dr. Dinger]

I'm trying to abstract this with algebra so I don't have to think about the fact that I just acquired a pitcher who once cost me $500. Porcello = Duffy, therefore in my mind I traded Grandal for Odor, which fills a need from a depth.

[Frenchsoup]

Porcello all the way..

[jaysblue]

I needed a catcher pretty badly especially with Norris & Salty as my only two options currently on the roster. I added some pitching at the deadline with Nola & Gray so I had the SP depth to make this swap.

[Cyborg]

I like the Grandal side.

[Dr. Dinger]

I think they both just had career years so it's pretty hard to tell who's going to be better. It's probably pretty even, but Grandal was ranked 279th this year and Porcello was ranked 16th. A lot of that is the fluky win total, but it's also the 220 IP of 5.9 K/BB.

 

I also ended up benching Grandal or Gattis a lot last year when they were both scorching hot, it wasn't a very efficient use of a roster spot.

[Boxcar]

I like the Grandal side.

 

No bias at all

[Frenchsoup]

Britton and Benintendi available...

[AdamGreenwood]

I have a few players that I won't be able to keep. If anyone wants them cheap, let me know. Looking for small waiver upgrades or small draft upgrades.

 

Nick Hundley.

Colby Lewis.

Robbie Erlin.

Nick Tropeano.

[Dr. Dinger]

These guys can all be had for draft picks:

 

Brad Hand (111 Ks in relief!)

Brett Lawrie (is terrible, please take him)

Ryan Madson (30 saves)

Jake Diekman

Jim Johnson (20 saves, 2.71 FIP)

Tyler Beede (MLB tho)

How did you end up with Beede on your pro roster?

Unowned prospects that did not hit AA or higher in the previous year cannot be added to MLB rosters on Yahoo, even if they hit AA, unless they are called up to the big leagues.

 

---

 

Prospects may not be promoted to the MLB roster until they have played at least one game at AA or higher. Similarly, free agent prospects may not be added to a MLB man roster until they have played at AA or higher. (Note: This rule is intended to prevent issues arising from owning players in the low minors added to the database by Yahoo.)

[Dr. Dinger]

I had an open NA spot so I decided to stash him, which was legal since he pitched in AA in 2015. I might even keep him, he could debut any time and potentially be a solid SP.

[BTS]

Wasn't questioning the legality, I was just curious as to how that happened. You never promote prospects early.

 

And we all know that there's 0 chance you roster a guy in AA or AAA past the cut.

[Dr. Dinger]

I don't have to, I'll just pillage the waiver draft like I always do.

Man, I'd love to add Diekman, but I have no idea how I'd protect him.

Hello, sorry for my long hiatus. Gonna try and make more time for the board as I've been neglecting my duties as of late on all fronts. I have a trade to announce,

 

Frenchsoup gets Chris Sale and Mark Melancon

 

Spittin gets Benintendi and Piscotty.

That's a really bad deal for you. Noticeably less valuable starters were asked for and rejected by a number of teams, and you added a tier 1 (lower end of the tier if anything) closer to go along with it. Piscotty has some value himself, but yikes, seems like Frenchsoup made out like a bandit here.

I like this for Spittin actually.
