Ain't afraid to trade over here....once I actually have a team.
The guy I want will go early in the draft and I wouldn't mind working out some sort of deal while the draft is going on so the owner can plan accordingly the rest of the way.Also in the market for a crap closer (Eephus>hi). I have some decent pitching prospects I could move.

Can the commish autodrop our teams, or do we have to go in and do each player automatically?

 
Side note: These dispersal drafts are killing the ability to make some speculative bullpen pickups going into the season. I've been stuck with one closer for quite some time because I can't touch anyone in the off-season, and Eephus has an alarm system that goes off the minute a closing situation changes in-season.

I guess that's a long-winded way of asking one of these newbies to draft-and-trade me a closer. TIA.

My garbage closer inventory is a lot worse than last September, but I'll be OK as long as my bad hip lets me know when bullpen changes are afoot.

Way to take the initiative boys, good job. Wow everyone wants closers now. Save one for me! Losing Wagners gonna hurt. Ill be around tomorrow if anyone needs. I also have a droid so if u email me or pm me I usually get it pretty quick. I agree RnR but what can we do. I traded for a couple closers last year and even traded away Buster Posey. Whoever has him now, I want him back. V Mart plus for him even. ?

I honestly didn't look super close. I can't keep track of all my trades, lol.
 
I rolled but I wasn't supposed to apparently. ####, was a good roll too. I think I'm supposed to be rolling for Cake.

 
I'm looking to move at least 1 of the following "closers" for some offense:

Fuentes, Brian OAK

Lyon, Brandon HOU

Putz, J.J. ARI

Rodney, Fernando ANA

Thornton, Matt CHW

Aardsma, David SEA

Take a look and give me an idea what you are interested in.
 
First, any restrictions on who is available? Can I draft the local high school 1B?

Second, aside from Rendon, are there any other placeholders?

no restrictions but keep in mind nobody usually grabs college guys until april or may anyway and those roster spots are really valuable for your pitchers. If he's Lebron them grab him.

True, but the success rate of the players drafted as amateurs has been pretty good. The rosters are large enough to commit a couple of slots to amateur flyers, especially for expansion teams.

I agree. But as a guy ( along with Sammey I believe) who scoured the imports and college ranks three years ago I can say I should have gone after some older prospects than wasting time on guys 4-6 years from the majors. Plenty of good minors guys and college guus getting drafted high june first available on waivers RIGHT NOW. Srcew high school guys imo.

:goodposting: I was able to find some really good minor league prospects last season who should be in the majors by 2012 and maybe this year. The Strasburg and Harper types are worth picking up while amateur but with our roster sizes you don't want to lug too many of those guys around.
