  • Would you do this trade? Donaldson just rides the bench for me.

    I give:
    Yoesnis Cespedes (Oak - OF)
    Josh Donaldson (Oak - 3B)

    for

    Jose Bautista (Tor - OF)

    C Mike Napoli (Bos - C,1B)
    1B Chris Davis (Bal - 1B,OF)

    3B Miguel Cabrera (Det - 3B)
    SS Josh Rutledge (Col - 2B,SS)
    OF Allen Craig (StL - 1B,OF)
    OF Wil Myers (TB - OF)

    BN Yoenis Cespedes (Oak - OF)
    BN Josh Donaldson (Oak - 3B)
    DL Troy Tulowitzki (Col - SS) DL
    DL Aaron Hill (Ari - 2B) DL

  • Do I have a spot to put him? I'm thinking if anything drop Porcello, Cole, or Donaldson and try to do a 2 for 1 somewhere; but trading is hard to pull off in this league.

  • Tulo is hurt. I have Everth Cabrera so I can use him at either 2B or SS. I also have Aaron Hill coming off the DL soon, so this fill in is probably short lived.

    add who?

    Jurickson Profar (Tex - 2B)

  • To use the IR spot does the guy actually have to be on IR, or can he just be listed as out for that week and then you can slot him into the IR spot?

  • I grabbed Rutledge right away. But should I add Aviles instead?

    Tulo's replacement

    It hasn't been announced yet. Rutledge was scratched from his AAA game last night which I'm guessing means a call up. Herrera doesn't have nearly as much upside as Rutledge, so I still see him as a backup now.

    If some moron will do that trade you best be doing it. But in reality you won't get Gardner for that #$%$.

    Why would I need a new catcher? Napoli is playing every day at first base and he is currently the top ranked catcher.

    Why does Hill need to go? He played 10 games and got hurt and is sitting in a DL spot.

    I've been thinking this for over a year, nice to see someone else agrees with me.

  • Can you rate my team please, maybe tell me if I am in dire need of any improvements?

    I'm in first place by 14 games. And since you'll probably wonder how I have a couple of those hitters, I've made some big trades.

  • I just picked Marte up and he's currently a bench guy. I don't need HR's, my team is weaker in SB. But Marte hasn't been doing much of anything.

    Brown is at his peak of sell high right now. I'd say that's a really good place to start.

    Your weak link is definitely your pitching. Your starting hitters are fantastic. I'd look to move a bat or two to try to get an ace.

  • I just dropped Kelly Johnson to add and stash Cueto (yea someone dropped him). So who should I add? I doubt anyone will claim Johnson, so I could add him back once he clears waivers on the 9th. This is for a bench spot guy.

    I mean I don't think Bell or Seager are worth much. Ramirez is a good 3B and Price could find a groove. Team B wins.

    Take Trout/Rizzo for sure. It's a pretty even trade, but Trout is a player you want
