an aweful year for trout would still be a top 50player.

hes gonna steal 25+bags and hit 15homers

hes hitting atop that lineup, so hell will score 80+ runs

even if he hits .250, thats still top 50 players overall, and i doubt he will fill the "worst case scenario" roll

trout could bust
reynolds could hit 50+
john lackey could win 20+
ryan howard could win MVP

but u cant base decisions on these tiny possibilities with such a small sample size


My team is loaded at OF(a couple are on DL right now) and SP, so it won't hurt me to lose Trout and Price/IPK.
I am hurting in the power hitting categories, where Reynolds and Santana will help me drastically... and Gordon is a solid LF to replace Trout with.

ok, then do what ive been suggesting

trade a lesser OF thats still more valuable than reynolds for reynolds

you are giving up a laughable amount for a player hardly worth owning for 2/3 of the year

or trade trout, a top 10 player, for a power batter who actually has value in other statistical categories



youre getting a handful of average players for an ELITE talent

its easy to replace average players via waiver wire, but an elite talent isnt

i dont kno how to tell you this in any other way



and i havent even gotten to the part where u hav Price in the trade either lol... that trade shouldnt be made for price OR trout, let alone both :bonk:

I need to get some feedback from the league as a whole to figure out whether or not we should keep the FG involved or give refunds and make it a free league. Numone was going to be giving refunds at some point today, so we need to figure this out ASAP.


Well, those questionable trades never went through though, right? So why not keep it as it is and until something bad happens, kick those people out of the league + no refund and allow it to stay competitive.

This trade is still pending:
Santana, Reynolds, Gordon for Trout, Price, IPK

And you can't just decide to kick us out of the league based on a trade like that... if you guys are really that adamant about not letting us do this trade and want the league to collapse as a result, that's fine with me, send my buy-in back.

The fact that trib or whoever think Ewok & I are "colluding" because of this trade is incredibly laughable. Like Ewok has stated, we discussed trade options that would be mutually beneficial for DAYS on Facebook. We finally came up with this that we both agreed on and believe help both teams without leaving either at a disadvantage or giving one a severe advantage over the other.

Again, if you want to be a twat about this and "cancel the league," trib, by all means send my fg back to me and go about your business.

if thats the best trade you guys can come up with, then you shouldnt be in the league anyways.

im sorry, but thats one of the most one-sided trades ive seen in such a long time. let someone without downs look at the teams and come up with a fair trade that benefits both teams and fills needs, cuz there is definitely no way this is the best one.

its such a shitty trade, that people cant help but think its collusion.

Very well said. Here it is:


I don't care how bad of a start (nice sample size) Trout and Price are having. The 3 Ewok is giving up still aren't worth Price alone, let alone Trout.

Neither Sim nor Ewok are idiots, so I'm not sure how they would think the rest of us wouldn't assume either collusion or sad trolling...

I always send my first offer in my own favor. I kind of thought everyone did...
