*Gulp* Time for my first potential forray into the apparently cutthroat trade market.

My top priority right now is seeing what people would be willing to offer for Baby Honus Wagner.

Right now I'm exploring anything that helps me at 2b or 3b and potentially RF. While I'm willing to listen to offers that include bullpen players they would probably need to be Papelbon /Hoffman level(as they seem to not suck)

BIG BICEPS SHOHEI


With my sandwich pick locked and looking like it's pick #12 (11 considering the prize) - I'm putting it up for sale. I don't know what I want for it. Was thinking another great MIF or a good backup C that can play against lefties, which would let Gibson hit DH against them. I'm open to hearing any position though.

You can check out what's on my team here, if you would like to discuss regular player trades.

I guess if we're all doing trade madness, '06 Ed Walsh is available for a prime hitter. I'd prefer a 1 for 1 swap, possibly for a first round draft pick instead depending on what the draft looks like.

I'll be honest, I'm kind of surprised that basically no one is voting for the Space Fish. They did have the best record of any of these teams.

Granted, as I said, they were also the only one that finished in absolute, dead last in their division, but still.

I guess people have the same sort of distaste for the Kevin Brown strategy that I do, proving just one more flaw in FairGame's plan.

I have interest in your baby Wagner as well as your baby Waddell.

At the positions you need, I have such players as:
Nap Lajoie (doubles!), Pete Rose (singles, and fields pretty much anywhere competently, for some reason), and prime Mel Ott (3B/RF extraordinaire)!

Take a look at my spreadsheet because I have a ton of players, some/most of which can be yours for one of those two!

We all know in our hearts his team will never truly die. He lives, he dies, he lives again.

No, I'm voting for the Marmosets. They have to take better notice of things like neither Matt Williams nor Howard Johnson nor any combination therein should ever start in the SL, but otherwise they're a solid team.

The dragons are good in theory, but they need to prove the backsliding is a fluke and win the subpar big. Also the Norris Smythe badly needs a shakeup.

You think the ~ombudsman~ is going to be ok with a plan where the rules are broken and a last place team gets to live barring Tag Team Exceptions? If I were voting, it wouldn't be for the Space Fish.

Okay kids, it's time for Crazy Armitage to completely overhaul the roster! *in Crazy Eddie voice* My prices are.. insane!

Everyone on the team, under the tab "Players to be traded" MUST go! They will not be on my roster next season. I would not like to move players under "Current Roster" unless an offer knocks my socks off, but I would prefer bringing these players onto the team going into the Sub-Par League!

I want: BIG BATS! SLICK FIELDING INFIELDERS! PITCHING! COMPETENT RELIEVERS! PICKS! I LOVE ME SOME PICKS!

I would not want: Any version of players that I had rostered during the last season. I am trying to move away from those. I want to end up between 32-35 players when this is all said and done

Who is eligible for these great deals? Expansion Cup teams! Sub par teams, whether they are going to the Gauntlet or the playoffs! Super League teams!

The doc is below! Have fun! Make your offers today! Come get you ssssooommmeeeeee!!!

McD I have lost any trade I ever engaged in it feels like and I have no idea what I would ask for in return for Delahanty and whether that would be good or bad for me. In fact I'm still trying to figure out what exactly caused this huge collapse (outside of Mike Schmidt mysticism and curses) other than the Riggs injury so I wouldn't even know where to start to a) prepare for the gauntlet and b) improve my team so that poo poo doesn't happen again.

It's a Goog Day, yes it is!
Well, Hell, if we're all getting trade happy, let's do this!

The Goog Day can offer the following things:

* Outfielders (Babe Ruth, Barry Bonds, Rickey Henderson, Earle Combs, Harry Heilmann)
* Generic deadballers (Babe Adams, Urban Shocker, Dutch Leonard)
* High-upside all-time greats who rolled badly for me this year (Alex Rodriguez, Mike Schmidt)

Where we're looking to improve:

* Shortstop (Myer / Rodriguez has been okay, but no more than that)
* Catcher (see above, but with Schang / Schang)
* Bullpen (you may have heard; it's a bit of a disaster)

Nobody is off the table! All offers considered! Shoot me a message on Twitter if I'm not in IRC!

I'm probably gonna flip Schang! Probably. He's older but should still contribute enough in a platoon.

I do wanna carry a third emergency catcher, just one that won't potentially retire in the minors.
