Thought I had a good shot this year, but people stay hitting the DL. Still gonna try to make a run in the second half though.

I'm done.

Clearly there's just a bias against me as these trades are not veto able, not even close based on prior deals.

Most of you probably didn't even realize I added in a 4th rounder.

I haven't heard any reasoning why trade is veto able.

Looks like a bunch of scared insecure vaginas trying to protect their chance at the money.

Is there anybody else in this league that would give up what I did? Is there anybody else in this league that has the assets I do?

No and no.

I'm pretty pissed. These trades aren't at all out of line with any trades previous in this league.

Tulo for 1st

Iwakuma for 4th and 7th

fowler for 6th

Lynn for 7th

What the fukk is wrong with that?

Plus he gets zunino and erasmo who are two good legit prospects, I realize I'm ahead of the rest of the league in scouting but you'll know who erasmo is in a month

And revere is not a bad player, he gets steal

And Scutaro is a rock solid utility player that can be used in three different positions

Alright, listen.

Zunino hasn't hit since he moved up to the Triple A level. It's well documented. He feasted on A and AA pitching, got the bump, and flatlined. Now that doesn't mean he wont' hit, just means he's hitting in the .230's at a lower level, and doesn't project for much more than AB's and power potential for now. Nobody has him in the top 20 catches ROS. Nobody.

Erasmo is a legit prospect with K potential this season, but save us the "my scouting" you've jumped on every prospect brought up to the bigs this season, kicked the tires, and moved on to the next one. Erasmo is legit, and has frontline potential, and we all know it because Yahoo! has been talking about him for the last two months. Not to mention rotoworld, ihateprospects and the rest.

So that's ONE good prospect. a one-cat outfielder, a medium prospect, garbage, and draft picks for a grip of players all easily in the top 100, a few of which are top 50.

The trade sucks. It's complete bullshyt and you know it. You just want it to happen.


All that being said, I don't blame you - Red is the one essentially cashing-out this season. And while you're culpable, he's equally so.

Save the bullshyt about assets, this is about knowing how the league works, and not knowing. Knowing the actual value of picks and players and not knowing.

If the trade goes through, I'm fine with it... because there doesn't appear to be collusion of any kind. It's just a plainly bad trade. :drunk:

Here's the thing tho, this happens every season

Teams tank when they are out and sell off players they don't intend to keep for draft picks to help them next season... Tommy fits is doing the same, and the teams outside the top 5 with no chance will do it too in a month... Danja will do this even sooner if he has a brain

It's the reason KOB had almost every pick in this first round

This trade matches up with players previously traded of equal value

It's because the trade is on a grander scale, because its league altering (makes me a contender) and the fact that its me is why it got vetoed.

I earned those picks via selling high on players I didn't love and deserve to flip them.

The funny part is if the top teams are being smart they should want me to sell those picks off now rather than closer to deadline when I can get way more.

No Kevin, the problem this year is we finally fixed the round/keeper issue.

So now you need a pick in the round the player is worth or you move up a round until you have a pick, until a player is worth more than what you have and you cannot keep him.

So trading for a bunch of top 50-100 players with all but Tulo being below value keeper rounds should cost MUCH more than what you gave up, and Red should know better to do it.

Why would you trade the top ranked pitcher (and go look, he is..4th ranked player overall) who can be kept for a 15th rounder because he wasn't even drafted for a 4th and a 7th??? How is that logical? Let me trade a top 5 player who can be kept 15 rounds below his value for a 4th and a 7th???

Tulo for a 1st isn't the issue. It's the high ranking, cheap keepers for garbage picks that is.
