ridiculous fantasy baseball trade offers 2012 (1 Viewer)

A few days ago a guy tried to get Josh Hamilton and Eric Hosmer from me.

He offered this package-

Gaby Sanchez, Jamie Garcia and Alex Rios.

 
I have made several ridiculous offers this week alone -

Pujols, Lester and Smardzija

for

Hosmer, CJ Wilson and Brandon Morrow

Pujols, Lester, Ross

for

Hamels, Lawrie and Alex Gordon

This just points to how far Pujols value has fallen more than it speaks to an unfair offer. Not a buy low for me. His name recognition is keeping his value high and his swing looks horrible. Too many variables changed this year to say with any certainty that he will turn it around and be Pujols again.

I wound up moving him...essentially it was Pujols for Hamels, but the guy threw in JJ Putz and Corey Hart and I threw in Vance Worley.
 
Chris Johnson, Troy Tulowitzki and Evan Longoria forJose Reyes, Josh Hamilton, Mat Latos and Trevor Bauer
:shrug: .Thats not that ridiculous
I would be losing the best player in baseball, a very good shortstop, a top prospect and a solid young pitcher for a spare part fantasy 3rd baseman, a 3rd baseman on the DL and a very good shortstop. Also, this is a keeper league with escalating salaries. Longoria and Tulowitzki are highly unlikely to be kept after this season due to their salaries.

Well it would be helpful if you would let it be known that it is a keeper league with escalating salaries.
 
I thought it was a little wacky even if it was in a redraft league, so at the time I did not think qualifiers were necessary.

:shrug:Obviously if you think Hamilton is going to keep this up. If you are skeptical, I would prefer Longo/Tulo to Hamilton/Reyes.

Auction draft. Keep minimum of 5, maximum of 8. 23-man roster, $260 budget.Salaries for 2013 if these guys are kept-Hamilton $25Tulowitzki $45 or $47 (he's either 40 or 42 this year)Longoria $48Reyes $30
 
Trying to figure out if my offer to another team is insulting or foolish. 14 team 5x5 roto.

I give:

B.J. Upton (3 years of keeper eligibility left)

Brandon Beachy (2 years)

I get:

Jose Bautista (1 year)

 
Carlos Zambrano, Kyle Drabek, Evan Longoria, Bryce Harper and Brian LaHair

for

Josh Hamilton, Trevor Bauer, R.A. Dickey and Mike Trout

 
I do not know which side is getting the lesser group of players, but that offer has to be deemed ridiculous.
