Eww, I wouldn't consider trading him for any of those guys.
-
Oh I'm not worried about your team - I'm just stating that conviction that Shoemaker is garbage, and an inability to see that he's a fair bit more valuable than Ryan Vogelsong is the type of analysis you would expect from a guy who averages ~45 games under 0.500 per season.
-
Well that might explain why you're like 90 games under 0.500 in two years.
-
Well... that's probably not true, and he'd be your best pitcher.
-
No I think I definitely paid a fair price for Shoemaker and you got ripped off for Myers.
-
I understand selling him now if someone is willing to offer a price that reflects his potential, but you need to get a very good player in return. Two of the three relevant pieces going to Gibbers were acquired by Z3r0s for f***ing Matt Shoemaker.
-
Myers is 24 next year. He's only 4 years away from being 28, and over the hill.
-
Damn, z3r0s just stole Myers.
-
Kuemper picks up the shutout. LOL @ silvergun's goaltending.
-
Kuemper 20 minutes away from his 2nd consecutive shutout.
-
Longoria, Zobrist, Pena, Joyce, even Upton and Crawford were retained until they hit free agency. Fielding a competitive team has always come before maximizing the value of every asset by trying to trade them at their peak.

catsass is having a ridiculous week
-
Great move from Spittin.
-
yahoo still not indicating whether or not players are playing
-
Because your dynasty team is the best example of what a team that tries to sell every asset at peak value (27-28) actually looks like.
-
Wait, I've just perused the last few pages - is gibbers upset about people who called him a neglectful owner, or upset about me for using his DDL results as evidence that his philosophy on roster construction may not be ideal?
-
Bigger idiot: 1. Guy who moves a mid-round pick for Vogelsong to add an 8th starter for his playoff run. 2. Guy who moves most of his MLB players for picks and prospects, then burns multiple picks at the draft because he has too many to use. ??
-
Half the fun of leagues like this is commenting on what other people are doing. Everyone in the league gets positive and negative comments on strategy and specific moves they make. They are. But you look primed for a third consecutive season 25+ games under 0.500 and well out of the playoff picture. Given that you're employing the same philosophy you discuss here every chance you get, I think it's absolutely fair to point out that it hasn't actually worked for you.
-
I wonder if he'll be remembered in a Ricciardi-esque light if he f***s up the Edwin/Bautista gifts from the baseball gods.
-
You're protecting Bobby Parnell in a 10-team league?
-
Yeah, I guess. I just don't think it's ever going to lead to a playoff berth unless he bites the bullet and trades for vets to fill holes. The young guys are nice, but you also have huge risk of attrition. Guys like Profar and Machado may not be top-10 guys are their position going forward.
-
I think any top-10 team could have a better group if they traded their high end producers for young guys with big questions marks.
-
I don't think it's unfair to point out that the strategy that that you seem 100% sure should be employed by major league teams has been a disaster for you in the dynasty league you're in.
-
He doesn't want to move Longoria for Liriano?
-
Yeah. No interest at all in having a high waiver priority.
