How did he offer it when you 'wavered on the send button'?

[Sox Fan on Cape]

The funny thing is that RedSoxrules proposed the deal to me. By the way, I wouldn't have made the deal if I didn't have Posada.

 

The truth is that he moves Feliz to 3B, and Michael Young to SS. What he loses in Jeter he makes up for in Feliz for the most part. He gets Mauer instead of Bengie Molina and his .266 OBP. He basically goes from having the worst catcher in our league to the best. That costs him Bedard and the difference between Utley/Hudson [minor] and Jeter/Feliz [minor since Young slides over from 3rd to SS]. You're quick to point out that I had Posada, but you didn't take the time to see he had Feliz, and he's having a comparable season to Jeter. I can afford to give up Mauer since I have Posada, and Hudson is currently having as good a season as Utley. As for collusion, he's in 2nd place, and I'm currently [if the standings stay as they are] in 4th. One thing...I play fair, and you all know it.

 

Maybe this will encourage teams trading with each other a bit more anyways. If RSR picks up Wieters...could it be that he's planning to move him for, I don't know...a starting pitcher? Wieters as a trade chip [or Mauer] can be quite valuable IMO.

 

SFOC...you offered me Carlos Pena and Jason Kubel for Pujols. What the hell do you think anyone would have said to that deal? That makes this deal look like nothing.

 

That was only part of the proposal, there was a pitching component also. I also withdrew the proposal. My point about Wieters was that he somewhat negates the need for Mauer and he costs nothing.

 

BTW, I never said anything about collusion.

I cut and pasted from my email.

My bad on the collusion part. I read what a700 said and misunderstood. It was 6 AM and I was a bit tipsy.

[Gom]

Looking for a decent OF. Willing to give up a closer or two.

[Gom]

From 14th to 4th in 3 weeks. Nice.

 

Beware of my team Keeper. I'm on your ass. I have a defeat to you I need to avenge.

[Keeper]

Haha, bringeth it on.

you have to get by me first :harhar:

This is true. Mauer is hurt by the way, he may go on the DL.

where did you see that?

I didn't. Scared you for a moment though, didn't I? :harhar:

LOL!

[redsoxrules]

f***ing sweet , Mauer is 3 for 3 with a HR and 3RBI's in his first game in my lineup

Glad to be of help. Now...I've got you in my sights... :harhar:

[Gom]

Team Dynasty...you're next. I'm up to 3rd, and I want that bye week.

 

Jeez...talk about a tough stretch. I played the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and now this upcoming week, the 4th place team, all in a five week stretch.

 

Still looking for an above average OFer.

[Keeper]

Goddamn, I hate when daily roster moves blow up in your face. I think I lost 9 RBIs this week because I didn't start the right guys. 5 RBIs alone today. It's infuriating.

After I catch Dynasty...you're next.

[Keeper]

You never know. You've got the pitching to do it now. Getting Bedard and Utley was huge. I know Dynasty was happy to get Mauer, but he really screwed himself over with that trade.

I'm not done yet. Still looking for that big bopper in the OF.

[Keeper]

Wow, 51 total bases in the first two days this week. Adrian Gonzalez and Hanley had almost nothing to do with it. Go figure.

[Keeper]

Thank you to whoever dropped Mark Reynolds earlier in the year.

[Gom]

What an ugly matchup between yeszir and I. He's got a 4.98 ERA and 1.47 WHIP...and he's winning.

 

I've got a .292 OBP....and I'm' winning.

 

Fugly.

[Gom]

I need to trade...someone....trade with me...please.

[Keeper]

So, I'm kind of running away with this thing. Helps when you're getting career years out of a bunch of guys.

[Sox Fan on Cape]

Wise men say, what matters is where you are after the playoffs.

[redsoxrules]

you are BUT 1 bad week in the playoffs and you're out

[Keeper]

True, but I look at the playoffs as a formality. Assuming I don't drop off during the remainder of the season - if I lose in the playoffs - I still have, by far, the best team. So if I lose, I can at least take solace in that.

Only the $ positions have any meaning, and in reality only the champ has any bragging rights.

[Keeper]

According to you, but that's a load of BS. I've won 81 games. No one else has even won 60.
