Well let's see. I don't know who you are, where your at, or how/if I would get paid when I win the bet. But sure, if it makes you feel good or shut's you up, let's bet. Heck, make it a million. Don't want to keep you waiting. Uh, we kinda already have a bet going already. Maybe you didn't know it but this is a payout league.
And damn, You're(you are) correct. Didn't know I was getting graded. Thank you teacher! It's a message board. Didn't really care how it looked. **************
-
I'm still waiting to hear if you want to wager on which one of us will finish ahead of the other in the standings come October.

*you're

Wow! Your right. What a trade! Your a genius! One day after the trade has made a huge difference. You get the May 20th trophy. Congrats on being in 5th place! Wow! And good for you, having hopes! Go Jung-Ho!
-
Don't look now MasterBatters, but that idiot owner trading his studs away is half a point behind you. I hope Jung-Ho is the one who hits the homer that puts me ahead of you ;)
-
Looking to upgrade OF, willing to move Conforto, Piscotty, Domingo, Grichuk, White and all my prospects, let me know if interested

FYI, trade accepted in another 5x5 league...just saying
-
Trade accepted in *Pitching, Defense and 3 Run Homers* (_Old School (5x5)_):
*The Miami Mangroves* gives up:
*Stephen Strasburg* ($36)
$28 loan
*The Reggie Jefferson's* gives up:
*Orlando Arcia* ($4)
*Jose De Leon* ($4)
-
I am in another league where last year's winning owner completely gutted his team this year. He is in last place this year, but because of the young talent he has, he'll probably be near the top next year. Maybe we should just make this a no trade league in the future.
-
In 1993 the Dodgers traded Pedro Martinez for Delino Shields. Should that have been vetoed? Probably. It seemed like a good deal to the Dodgers at that time. Everybody has their own opinion and motivation for a trade. Maybe it works out. Maybe it doesn't. There are no sure things. So I will let all trades go through as. I don't know what is people's minds. Everybody has their own opinion of a trade. We are all in it to win. Maybe this year or maybe next.
-
And Catalina what the hell are you chiming in about. I've sent you four offers all year long. The offers were for the likes of players like Duvall, Hundley. That's really trying to rip someone off there. Hell, Chris Carter would look good for one of those bums right now. And Matz for Papelbon. I'm ripping bad there. WOW! Just reject it. Simple as that.
-
Top 15 prospects?? Huh! Where'd you do that research at. Odds are they end up just like Berrios with a 10ERA and back in the minors. IT'S MAY! And Frazier is on pace for 50 homers, Kluber a top 15 pitcher. Only $29. What? Check the prices again for pitchers. Also see when he came out at the auction. Your comments make no sense. Don't forget the closer added in the deal in Tolleson too. Closers only happen to be gold in this league right now. Go try to find one on the wire.
-
My other league is extremely competitive despite huge loans and is currently being destroyed by a team that's under cap, so I really don't think it's a huge concern, despite my own sense that huge loans paying for stars is kinda weird with few real world equivalents.
-
And he probably won't win, cause the current 1st place team has a roster full of cheap keepers many of which were acquired by trading away higher-priced studs.
-
I'm sympathetic to this argument. The teams that are often contenders in many ottoneu leagues are those that can expand their cap upwards of $500. My other league had a trade of Stanton along with a $50 loan to pay for him. I thought it was weird, but the team moving Stanton got 3 good keepers out of it and even if the team getting Stanton wins this year, their roster is unsustainable and will be at a disadvantage next year.
-
My problem with the trades that I've spoken on are regards to 'Team A' giving up not only the PROVEN players, but also paying 'Team B' to make the cap. The loans in this league have been brutal imo. We can argue value all we want (and I don't want to, trust me), but when I see two solid and not even over priced players + $20+ from one team going for players not even in the bigs yet.. That's what leaves me salty. /rant
-
Lastly, what exactly do you think is going to happen? That he's going to run away with 1st place now cause he has Todd Frazier and Coery Kluber? You're acting like he just landed Trout and Kershaw for some fringe prospects.
-
Plus I got some cash that will allow me to pick up another piece or two. Explain to me how my team is worse off. I think people make the mistake of looking at trades in a vacuum and ignoring the context of the owners making the moves. Maybe if you tried to understand what m y needs and objectives are as an owner, it may no longer seem as objectionable to you.
-
I upgraded at two positions with cost-controlled assets and got a third cost-controlled asset at SP who will arguably provide more surplus value going forward than Kluber.
-
Kluber is such a stud that he only went for $29 at the auction. Okay.
-
@Master Care to wager on which one of us will be ahead in the standings come October?
-
ok next time im proposed a trade I want to accept i'll run it by you and we can discuss whether or not it's "good for the league" before I accept...this way competitive balance will always be perfect and no one will trade in a way that is beneficial for their team
-
Get your facts straight. Inside ripped that one. And he was correct by the way. I didn't post a thing though. You can deal your cheaper assets. Cheap assests doesn't equal Todd Frazier and Corey Kluber. And no one is stopping me from trading. Just can't get two studs in return for players I picked up on free agent list that last few weeks. Again. you keep defending your trade with me running my team. How bout give me defense of why this trade is fair for the overall good of league

on top of that, he picks up Neris, and since he already owns jeanmar gomez, he now has the save from the phillies bullpen locked down for a long time to come at extremely cheap prices...and neither Frazier nor Kluber has been anything special this year, say they continue their current levels of production (entirely possible given Kluber's performance last year) well then im shit out of luck and just gave up 5 really strong keepers for next year, some of whom will probably be very solid this year
-
i cant speak for the other owners but nick williams and jose de leon are both top 15 prospects for fantasy right now, both will prob debut this year and if successful will be $10 dollar players next year (or more) and he'll have them under his control under $5 (not a bad profit potentially)...as for the other trade Kluber will not be a keeper at his age or price next year, and he gets three guys who no doubt are including probably the second or third best pitching prospect in the game
-
And it's hilarious the way every time someone calls out these pitiful trades. The only evidence to defend why the trade is fair is for me to manage my own team and don't say anything. Wouldn't want to mess up your deal by calling it out. How bout post a legit reason why this trade is fair for the competitive balance of the league this year. One reason? And remember you don't know how it will turn out. So the facts show Frazier a stud, Kluber a stud. Versus Free agents and no stats to back

well you also ripped on me for dealing Keuchel and Seager...now I can't deal some of my cheaper assets? Seems like no matter what I do you have a problem with it...and by the way these trades were proposed to me and like I said, no one is stopping you from trading
-
Says the guy that is gaining the best players and keepers in the deal too since you want to through out dynasty as reasoning. And your correct, don't know how this will turn out in the future. Which is why right now this trade is ridiculous. Not one player is close to comparison the numbers you gain from Kluber and Frazier. We can only go by what we do know. And the stats show this is way off. It's May! You need to get better prospects for studs when you do make that deal later in year.

lol ok a few things, 1) it's a dynasty league and everyone values guys differently and can manager their teams however they want 2) it's funny how you immedtiately say trades are unfair when it reality no one knows how the trade will turn out in a month, let a lone a year or two from now 3) no one is stpping you from going out there and trying to make some deals, so instead of complaining aybe you should just work on you're squad and allow other people to manage their own
-
Todd Frazier and Corey Kluber for some waiver wire picked up shit. This mess ain't even fun when you try to compete while gifts handed out for nothing. Unless something changes drastically, you won't see me back next year. Pitiful!

The trades in this league are ridiculous. There is no chance one gets vetoed so just do whatever you want. Don't worry about the effect the lopsided trades have on the competitive balance in the league. The Astained will have it again. VOTE SOMETHING! Damn. Have your own mind at least. Vote approve or veto. Just vote something. Why in the world are folks putting up 100 bucks to give up after a month. WTF!! Prospect trades should not be considered a trade balancing factor this early
