I fixed the IM for the Brats. Typo on my end. Please fix. The correct IM is Cheesus2615. Delete Cheesus2616, that one is incorrect. Sorry.

What was so wrong with the trade?

 

And why would everyone want to trade with me?

 

I'm sure someone will enlighten you.

It's not a science, but in general a top 10 pick is worth at least one or two other elite players. Kemp was taken ahead of people like Lincecum, Mauer and Ryan Howard. You should probably be getting players at that level back if you trade him.

Dude' date=' you have 6 OF (Victorino, Hawpe, McLouth, Bruce, Cameron, and Gardner. How do you need OF help?[/quote']

 

I want another solid OF as insurance.

Just traded Garza, Shields and Swisher to suns for Kemp and Harang. Vetoers speak now or forever hold your breath.

Adding more mid round draft picks doesn't change the basic inequity of the deal. The 10th pick in the draft should fetch at least one elite player, imo.

Round of draft =/= quality of player.

Funny. All I could get from you for my 11th pick of the draft was Jeter, Mo, and RANDY WELLS :lol:

Jeter was a 2nd rounder, Mo a 5th.

Don't be such a dick head.

So because you overdrafted, that makes them more valuable.

 

Jeter is not 2nd round talent, Kemp is not first round talent. That's about the size of it.

 

In fact, Kemp was an auto-pick.

Of course, some late pick will end up a surprise top fantasy player, as always. But that has nothing to do with today's value in a trade.

LOL. I like my team as is. I'm not the one trying to frisk the kid out of his best players.

 

(Except I have too many Yankees I'd like to dump.)

Garza is not a "surprise top fantasy player". He's a solid three-category contributor (K's, QS, WHIP) who's continually underrated.

But you're trying to frisk Diony out of Tulo. Interesting.

Right, he's not.

Okay maybe, but def not top.

Diony asked ME what it would take to get Mo. Would you like to see the PMs?

I don't want PM's. All i want is for you to see that Garza+ Shields+ Swisher for Kemp and Harang is not lopsided. He needs solid pitching, which i'm giving to him, and i'm also giving him a solid replacement for Kemp, except he doesn't have speed.

Hey Dipre, seriously I don't blame you for trying to scoop him up on the cheap. If Suns wants to take that for him, that's not your fault.

 

But if he shops Kemp, he'll get better offers.

By the way Dipre, you're trade will get vetoed. :harhar:
