That is a horrible trade. Al least three keepers Kershaw side for some barely average players on the other.
-
Especially when his name is Clayton Kershaw.
-
Quick veto for me. $60 Kershaw was not on the tradeblock. I'd considered making an offer for him over the past few weeks. If I was aware he'd been available I would've fielded a competitive offer if not multiple possiblities. At the very least all that must be done differently is to make it known you're considering selling X player.
-
This is manifestly a bad trade-- please shop around next time.
-
ABS- it doesn't really seem like you're open to any suggestion that this is less than a fair deal but here's my take. If it was Kershaw for every other player involved in the deal, it'd be more fair. I'm not exaggerating at all. This is theft. Give me one example of Kershaw being traded with more players than are coming back not named Trout. Convince me this is within the norm.
-
Oh and Poof- lighten up. This is fantasy baseball, it's supposed to be fun. This is a $10 league. I know your team is hopelessly out of it already but you probably have more productive things to do than argue about a fantasy baseball trade that you aren't even involved in. Sadly I don't have anything better to do. Which is why this is like message 10 of the night for me...
-
And again I'll reiterate- go to the Ottoneu trade thread and check out some of the other trades that get accepted. This one is well within the norm of what happens in these leagues all the time. But I guess you missed that part of my previous message (9:16 PM if you don't believe me).
-
I try to. Not that I know everyone. And I haven't bothered to look at your team because it's so bad.
-
1) I'm pretty sure my job would be to defend my half of the trade. Peavy is an adult (I assume, I've never met him before) and can defend himself if he sees fit.
2) Perhaps you are worse at reading comprehension than fantasy baseball. I never said I know every player on the block in this league. I said " I try to stay in touch with as many owners as often as I can so I know who is on the market at all times." I did say in my primary league I know every on the block but in this leag
-
I'm delighted to know that I get to be a part of 2017's version of the annual trade that pisses people off.
-
Again, all this chatter from the guy receiving the gifts. You keep deflecting and not explaining where the player(s) you sent that are worthy of Kershaw alone. I didn't have that crystal ball you have to know every player that gets traded. Anybody on here know Kershaw could be had for nothing? Your comments make no sense. You don't know every player that is available. Who's available on my team then? Stop trying to deflect so your trade makes it. You know this is a crap deal. Get real
-
I'm just requesting all owners, please place a vote on this trade. Not telling you how to vote, just asking you to vote. We have a very active and good group in this league. It's awesome that we have owners that sign on daily. Just vote and then we can have fairness for the owners it does affect.
-
And if another team made this trade I'd be upset that I hadn't been active enough to know Kershaw was on the block. I try to stay in touch with as many owners as often as I can so I know who is on the market at all times. That way I have a chance to match or beat any offer. In my primary league I know every trade that is accepted before it's accepted and am never surprised by any deal because I know everyone who is being offered around.
-
Poof- Maybe you should spend more time trying to improve your team and less worrying about a deal that is well within the norm in Ottoneu leagues. Take a look at the accepted trades that occur on a regular basis and you'll see deals that occur like this all the time. As for your statement that June is to early to sell that just ridiculous. I can tell you with 100% certainty that you have no chance to win this league. None. You should have been looking to sell a month ago.
-
And I have no problem with the concept of trading high priced players for keepers. I am asking to justify where that balance is at in this trade. Name me the player(s) that is worthy of Kershaw in this deal. You sure can't justify the rest of the package. It's not worthy of Kershaw by him self. ABS- your welcome to tell me where you justify it too. Explain the balance to me.
-
And says the guy receiving the gifts for nothing. You think about how you would view this deal if Vom Squad was on your end of the trade. I am sure you would be singing a different tune. I just hope all owners will actually vote in a fair manner and see where it goes with all owners participating in the vote. At least give the league that.
-
ABS-you're getting just as many keepers as the other guy. Maybe more.
-
Absolutely it is. First it's early June. Way too early in the season for that. Next. how bout entertain some offers before you sell the top pitcher and a top player in the game(much less the rest of the really good players in the package). Let somebody know your shopping him first. And lastly, when you are giving up Kershaw(much less the rest of the package), get something worth a darn in return. That's a horrible return for Kershaw alone(much less the rest of the package). It's June!
-
Isn't one of the points of Ottoneu to be able to trade overpriced non-keeper veterans for cheaper/younger players when you are out of contention?
-
Thanks for speaking up Poof. It really is a ridiculously one sided deal. Vote No on Kershaw-Rosario!
-
My team is awful, so doesn't affect me much at all. But if I am Vom Squad or another team gunning for the top spot, I would be pissed if this trade makes it through. Sadly, no trades get vetoed in Ottoneu . This is the biggest flaw or problem I have with Ottoneu. Gifts for nothing in return. Not cool man! Sorry Vom Squad, as a Commish, I don't have power to fix. Hopefully the rest of the league will do the right thing and vote something.
-
Okay Peavy, I would like a little justification as to why you are making that trade. That is a very small return for Kershaw alone, much less the rest of the package. While I am trying to be very open to peoples trades, this one doesn't cut the mustard. Sadly, I am requesting owners take a look at this trade and vote to veto it or allow it. Would be greatly appreciated, for the competitive balance of our league, if all owners would please place a vote on this trade.

Yep, that one is gonna leave a mark. Ouch!

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudge!!!

Well, if week one is any sign of how my team is, I'm screwed. Gotta climb out of this hole from the start. One week though, gonna be okay.

Hello everyone, I have a fairly urgent need for an MI. I put quite a few players on the block that I'm willing to deal. Feel free to take a look.
