Ok THis is where you will post your offers.


Going to use Niddlers theory here and only allow 2 trades per season. This is CPU trades

All Human - Human trades are unlimited until the trade deadline, But will also go through the committee before being approved.

The committee will go over each trade before it is finalized, And this 1 will be alot more strict to what you are giving up and getting.


Teams and Owners: For tracking purposes.

So is this something that the committee will talk about in here?
Where do we give our opinion if not?

Who is on the trade committee?

And you want to use 1 of your 2 trades on a a guy because you like him more? I am all for it as it is as even as it gets basically.

The Braves trade, while the Overall looks good, Wood will start for them.
You are taking away 2 of their starting RPs though.
The CPU, I do not believe, will be smart enough to use a SP as a MR if they need to.

So that is my only issue. I would probably say yes to this trade though.

I updated the first post with teams and owners so we can easily track the # of trades.

I would definitely trade for a guy that I like more, just because of that, if they were relatively similar. Hopefully for most guys, since this was a fantasy draft, they were able to get players that they like. I know I reached up a few rounds on some guys to get people that I like in the draft, regardless of their ratings. Hence me having 3 Cincinnati Reds starters in my rotation. :-)

Oh, I was just busting his balls about it.
Same here. I got a few guys probably earlier than I could have but just because I wanted them.

I believe the commissioner can go in and edit lineups/rotations?

Hernandez is a MR in real life, and a "spot starter" when needed.

And Reign, you can always come get Cingrani ;)

Cincinnati Sends:
SP - D. Bundy 21yrs, 76 Ovr, A Pot
C - T. d'Arnaud 25yrs, 67 Ovr, B Pot

Tampa Sends:
C - W. Rosario 25yrs, 83 Ovr, B Pot

Notes:
- Game has this heavily in their favor (guessing the A SP means a ton)
- Tampa has one of the best current backup Cs in the league, D. Norris 25yrs, 76 Ovr, B Pot
- I'm submitting it because I need a C and ended up with an extra SP with the lag issues. They've got a great backup C and their current ace is 39. Their SP is dreadfully weak, as Bundy will be their #4 highest SP right now and likely their #1 after progression and Kuroda's downfall/retirement.
- I've also got a 22yrs old, 64 Ovr, B Pot catcher prospect that may make more sense for them, since they already have Derek Norris, who is the same age as d'Arnaud. I could also resubmit it with him in their instead of d'Arnaud. (They'd take the deal favorably without a C in it, lol)

Oh yeah, I had at least 5 guys that niddler/ryan/jason grabbed in front of me. I think Bernie got 1 on the turn too. (not counting my 2 lag issues.)

BTW Ryan... totally missed those messages at first, I was so out of it last night. If user-user trades are unlimited like Niddler's league, we can work something for Smyly.

I know this is a trade thread so last comment about draft.....Bernie screwed me in back to back picks and literally took the exact players I was looking at with my next picks...it was like my room was bugged!

I don't wanna hear shit, you took more of my guys then I took of yours. Kinsler to say the least. ;) But it was great fun

@Niddler, you and reign are the other 2 in the committee unless 1 has a trade going. The thread needs no extra talk though, for trade posts only.

I don't see any issues here. They seem to get a A rated SP for the future along with a ok C to replace their starter.

I finally saw how users can vote on Trades in game. You just go to the accepted trade highlight the trade hit X and vote. However, it only counts the votes if Ryan makes that available to other users. Right now I believe it's just him.

That way is used when it is set for me not to vote.

Thats why its turned off, SO committee can rule and then its a yes or no.

This is a close one. I think the user is probably getting the slight advantage here. If it were user-user, I'd say yes immediately. I think the 2 old guys are a direct wash. I think Walden is slightly better than Wood with a slightly higher ceiling, as he's 1 OVR higher and 1 yr younger. I think being an SP my offset that for Wood. When I look at CWS's roster, it looks like Wood would become their #4 SP and could push for the #3 spot if he outpaces their current #3. Because of that, I'm going to give this an OK.
