Pujols Trade Help (1 Viewer)

[Snotbubbles]

12 team, Rotisserie: R, HR, RBI, SB, Avg. and W, Saves, K, ERA, WHIP

My team:

C: AJ Pierzinski

1: Carlos Delgado

2: Richie Weeks

S: Jimmy Rollins

3: Scott Rolen

OF: Alphonso Soriano

OF: Carlos Lee

OF: Rocco Baldelli

Util: Mike Cameron

B: Nomar Garciaparra, Joe Crede, Jim Edmonds

SP: Roy Oswalt, Rich Hill, Ted Lilly, Derek Lowe, Boof Bonser

RP: Joe Nathan, Chris Ray, Bob Wickman, Brad Lidge

I get: Pujols, Josh Barfield, Michael Young, Victor Martinez, Willy Tavares, Felipe Lopez, Marcus Giles

I give: Roy Oswalt, Richie Weeks, Jimmy Rollins, Rocco Baldelli, Brad Lidge

The only thing stopping me is that my starting pitching will be weak. Not much out there on the WW for SP. I will get a slight downgrade at 2b and SS. But I will get a huge upgrade at C and 1b. I can move Delgado to Utility and Mike Cameron to OF.

What two players would you cut to get back to your roster requirements?

Why don't you just swap teams.I like trading for Pujols. But I don't think you need him. Your offense is pretty good with what you've got.....and your pitching would take a huge hit with the lose of Oswalt.I'd say pass

 

[Snotbubbles]

Giles definitely, probably Tavares.

 

[Rounders]

I like the idea of getting Pujols, but your SP takes a severe hit. What other pitchers are out there on the WW?

What about moving Delgado for SP, since you won't need him anymore? Maybe a package deal of Giles or Tavaras/Delgado for a SP???

Just some ideas for you Snot.....

PS-Don't spend too much time on BB, because I'm coming for you in Unreal

 

[Bobcat10]

Giles definitely, probably Tavares.

Why are they in the trade then? To make the guy use transactions to get them back if he wants?

 

[Snotbubbles]

He offered it to me.

My work is done in that league. All I can do now is turn in my starting lineup. Good work transforming your team, I'm almost certain it should be good enough for you to finish second in our division.

 

[Bobcat10]

Can you list some FA starting pitchers?

I think I like this deal. It probably would be better if Rolen was involved somehow as you have Crede to slap in, but I don't see how to get him in.

If you do it, I think you might want to hang onto Taveras as you are getting rid of most of your speed. He's going to be fine in Col. I'd drop AJ.

I might be able to get him to throw in Bartolo Colon.

 

[Bobcat10]

I take it there are no DL slots?

 

[Snotbubbles]

I don't think so.

EDIT: Just checked, we get 1 DL spot.

Lowry and Sowers...

 

[Bobcat10]

Snotty,

This is the team you just traded Nathan and Rolen for Johan and Mora? I saw that in another thread.

 

[Snotbubbles]

Yeah.

I just got Santana and Mora. I really want to keep Weeks and Rollins.

I'm gonna offer the owner:

Oswalt

Baldelli

Lidge

for

Pujols

Martinez

 

[Bobcat10]

Wow, great trade.

If that trade doesn't work for Pujols (which it probably won't), I'd just drop Lidge and pick up one of the pitchers on the DL (Rogers, Pedro, Wang). Check their latest status and stash them away. Then I'd pick up Sowers with the open slot on your roster and keep working on the Pujols deal.

Ya know, your hitting is probably good enough to keep Oswalt and Johan.

 

[Wrigley]

Wow, great trade. :X If that trade doesn't work for Pujols (which it probably won't), I'd just drop Lidge and pick up one of the pitchers on the DL (Rogers, Pedro, Wang).

As I said before, His offense is not the problem.Wow great trade for SantanaI doubt you will get Pujols for what you are going to offer. But who cares, I think your offense is going to be good enough to put you in the running. And now you have 2 of the top 5 pitchers in the game.Good job
