Wine:
If you look at projected values, the offer was pretty fair. All of the players in the offer aren't playing up to their expectations with the exception of Cobb and KJ, who are about where they were projected to be. I figured since you have McCann waiting to come back, you might be willing to downgrade your catcher and get an extra decent bat out of it. KJ pretty much always has good numbers (with the exception of 1 recent game), which is likely why you wanted him in the first place. Mauer isn't the only person I'd trade for on your team, I just figured I would start there. The guys you previously offered me for KJ were borderline FA material, but I wasn't having a conniption over the offer
Profar:
This was the first trade I sent. I have no idea what Wine is willing to trade other than scrubs. Wine was the one showing interest in KJ, I was just trying to find a package deal for us since trading a lower value RP doesn't fetch much on it's own. Someone offering you Howard and Utley for Cano was either a bad troll or they're borderline retarded. The offer I sent Wine is nowhere near that level of ridiculousness.
SimShitty:
Max for Macho?
First of all, I dont understand who the 'extra decent bat' is.
I got Edwin, Morneau, and Youk for 1st base, and unless they all die in a house fire, there is no way Hosmer nor Montero comes close to those guys.
So essentially I will be trading Cobb + my best catcher for two scrubs and a reliever who I kinda dont need anymore.
If anything, I would like a SP right now.
