I don't have either of the specific players you mentioned, but I could give you a Jimmie Foxx who's young enough to play C/3B decently, '63 Jim Kaat (low-#2/high-#3 pitcher) and my 2nd round SD pick next season (who knows!)

I guess if everyone else is shopping their superstars, the RCMP can make 1990 Ken Oberkfell available. edit: And I have to move one of 33yr old Ed Delahanty or 27yr old Al Simmons. Either for a startable left handed outfielder or in a package for a left handed upgrade at a different position. Smasher Dynamo posted:As a first matter, Cy Young is a better pitcher than Babe Ruth. Just so I don't go down as the guy who thought Babe Ruth was a better pitcher than Cy Young, just want to clarify that I thought maybe there was a chance Ruth would be comparable to a 36yr old Cy Young at the end of a long season. You're right, though, if Ruth got lit up early and then I lost him to a reliever it would be an absolute disaster. DannoMack fucked around with this message at 02:59 on Nov 2, 2015 |

CraigK posted:what sort of players do you think dimaggio is worth It's a baby dimaggio, so something akin to like late 3rd round/early 4th. Problem is, while I ahave plenty of that level of inspired mediocrity, I don't have it at any position that'd improve your team. I have no idea why the scientists have performed so poorly the last two seasons. And I can't trade for a pick and offer it to you since if you're gauntleted the pick is useless. Unless you want Clemens for both dimaggio and an Edgar, but Clemens seems just as volatile as those two. Good luck in the gauntlet. This is a good team.

 Updated Janus trading block Has: - 1977 Brian Downing - a legitimate starting C or a good backup - 1948 Enos Slaughter - cool corner OF - 1985 Bert Blyleven - he <3s to fart - various backup OFs & pitchers, check my spreadsheet Wants: - strikeout RHPs, either elite dudes like Pedro Martinez or interesting ones like Matt Harvey (hi ZenVulgarity) - one or two cool deadball LHPs - aging up Wally Schang to prime age - aging down Ty Cobb to prime age, or upgrading him to a good-age Tris Speaker - rad as heck relievers Mornacale fucked around with this message at 06:10 on Nov 2, 2015 |

I should point out that a lot of the younger players from the 2015 Mets are going to require a bit of work from the guy running the league to be usable. And if you're asking me to make them into good players that will keep your team alive, well, you are assuming a risk.

Fairgame is already trying to assemble a Quad-Heilmann (not to mention the coldplayers' rotation's time in the mark bellhorn), nobody cares! Alternatively if you're deadset against Foxx (which you really shouldn't be like I said), I could replace him with both members of my 2B platoon since you seem to be looking for one.

I don't have a need or want for another Foxx though. I have a prime year Foxx at 1B/C, and he doesn't put up superstar numbers in my park with my players, so doubling down isn't a good idea. I'm also only looking for Tigers 2B, which is why I mentioned Charlie and Lou. Also, factorialite never ran a quad Heilmann. He did run a quadFoxx, and Smasher hated him. I do not wish to run afoul of Smasher. Besides, I know all about Heilmann, I'm the first one who gave him playing time in this league. 😊

I'd be much worried that your pitching staff would hate you for running a multi-Foxx than that Smasher would.

Yeah, I doubt anyone is going to offer an 85-87 version of him any time soon. 25 years old is pretty good. Are you interested in my Lajoie for him? I also have a Robinson Cano, but he's really just a backup.

Armitage, I can't get onto IRC so I'll just put the framework of a deal down and maybe we can figure it out here. Here's my spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YmNcLoobZi1-x5i8s6TtMXERywzs6VVVZc89ZqzWbLI/edit#gid=1 I'm looking to get Alomar, Edgar, and Vaughan from you. In return, I offer 1 Heilmann of your choosing, Cronin, and your choice of a side piece (perhaps two depending on who they are) from my roster. I am already starting Jimmie Foxx at C, and I cannot give up any pitchers other than a lottery ticket like Scott Williamson, so the extra piece would have to be an infielder or outfielder.
