Trades:

PS. No more rangers for me. I feel like a crackhead right now.

what's the trade?

Send Ian Kinsler, Tex 2B from 2B/SS to Mantis
Send David Wright, NYM 3B from 1B/3B to Mantis
Receive Howard Kendrick, LAA 2B from Mantis to Bench
Receive James Loney, LAD 1B from Mantis to Bench
Receive B.J. Upton, TB OF from Mantis to Bench
Receive Yovani Gallardo, Mil SP from Mantis to Bench

I had the choice of Gallardo or Phil Hughes

Solid trade, u made the right chioce with Gallardo Sooners

Looks like Mantis might need pitching now, Felix anyone? jk

Yeah Hughes has too many things going against them. The #1 problem is he is a Yankee lol, but being a rookie doesn't help either.

Hughes isn't a rookie. Im pretty sure this is like his 3rd year.

This wont be his first full year as a starter?

No. 2 years ago he was starting, got injured i beleive when he was in the middle of throwing a perfect game. His stuff is great, we just need to see if he can stay consistent.

I believe last year he was mostly short relief?

yea they moved him and joba to the pen and decided to go with a 3 man rotation.

I'm kind of interested in Hammy unless u want to keep him Mantis

Players for sale on my team

V-Mart, Jeter, LaRoche, Zimmerman, Holliday, Markakis, Halladay, Marcum, Ely, Felix

This is fucking ridiculous honestly. The trades weren't that bad and this is coming from someone who knows baseball. Yeah, LA got the better end of the deal, but it wasn't that lopsided. LA is right, he bought low and sold high...if he's lucky it will end up that way also. I'm usually the first one to throw a fit when the integrity of something I'm involved with is compromised, fantasy teams included, and the trades that were made with Kings don't bother me. Hell, I wish I would've made them first, but they weren't so bad that I'm gonna pitch a fit and quit the league.

Let me ask you a simple question though. If Kings actually gave a shit about his team, you think he would have done those trades? Do you think anyone, in any league would have done either of those trades if they cared/knew what they were doing? No.

i let the 1st one go without saying anything. This time i felt the need to speak up. I know i am right about this. You guys can hate me if you want but i do take this seriously, probably too seriously. Im a very competitive person. Im sorry if that rubs you the wrong way.

I have no hard feelings toward anyone, I'm just really surprised at the shitstorm these trades have caused. It's not like LA picked up Lincecum for Brad Penny and a player to be named later.

When a trade comes through I'm not even paying attention to who is involved, I just look at the players involved. If the deal is reasonably fair then I push it through. If it's not then I'll veto if it's ridiculous or if it's borderline then I'll see what people have to say.

Whatever, it's done as far as I'm concerned. I don't think it hurts the competitiveness or the fairness of the league.

If Hughes was on just about any other team he would've been a full time starter 2 years ago. He's quality for sure.

I'm officially pissed at Tim Lincecum now.

So he's available then?

Halladay and V-Mart for Lincy and Mauer?

Yo Oggy, I got any bats that interest you? I'm looking for Kershaw or Carp

HEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLL NO!

I'm just surprised that Tim had two bad starts in a row.

Damn Bigs ur bitch slapping my team around right now LOL. My guys are having a terrible week so far.

That's a pretty good offer, Halladay will give you all the same stats as Lincy or better and def more wins, V-Mart will give you all the same stats as Mauer with more Hrs, but Mauer has the better ave, not a hell no IMO.

No way u can give Mauer up and get V-Mart in return. Definitely a hell no!!

yea Mauer hit more hr's than Victor last year and he will this year. That's not a good swap.

Thanks for all ur input guys not invloved in the potential trade, LOL

It was Halladay and V-Mart for Lincy and Mauer too by the way

I could defend the trade, but will leave it for now
