MLB Chise Trade Talks

[Vinsane]

Would me trying to get Josh Barfield be a good idea?

I can tell you that you'll need to offer up a LF/RF as far as the Indians ranked these are their real "question marks" at least that's what the AI says. I'd offer up that, a SP if they're struggling, or a RP.

AA/AAA Prospect SP

[Vinsane]

3B Mark Reynolds (ARI) | 1B Travis Hafner (CLE)

This would get rid of Hafner who I'm not too thrilled with. Mark Reynolds comes in with 9 home runs, will be the featured DH, and will sub out with DeRosa/Garko for their 1B/3B duties. Also Kelly Shoppach is coming back in a couple weeks to take starts from Victor who will move to DH when not catching.

[Vinsane]

Cudi...over 800 players in the Major Leagues. Don't have us find your trade, look at the trading block, the rumor mill. Get some ideas and then ask us, Maholm for such and such.

[FirstTimer]

I am trying to trade Paul Maholm OR Jack Wilson.

I am looking for in order of importance:
1. SP

2. SS

3. OF

The White Sox waived Jerry Owens in real life so you could get him for nothing. The Cubs are deep in CF. You could get Joey Gathright for cheap.

A LOT of teams would be interested in a young lefty pitcher like Maholm. Same with Wilson having high interest. Why are you wanting to get rid of them? They seem like a great part of the Pirates young core.


Any particular type of player you are looking for? Trying to get into your mindset of who/what you want and what type of guy you are lookign for and that will help with trades.

Maholm blows and Wilson can't hit. ^

Just looking towards the future in my Marlins chise. Is there any way in hell the Marlins could get Carlos Guillen? I loved him in my Tigers chise and would love to bring him to SoFla. I'm not the best when it comes to putting together baseball trades so I'm just curious what you guys think. Obviously he can play multiple positions and I'm really not all that sold on this Cody Ross guy. Just kicking rocks around but would love to know if it was possible.

LF Josh Willingham | 1B Travis Hafner
| LF David Dellucci/RF Shin Soo Choo

Willingham is a solid prospect which is why I'd ship a LF/RF back to Washington. Is it too little? Is it too much. I'm not sure if the CPU would accept this trade though. I could add to it later this is more or less a long shot trade and not really all that needing, just interesting.

I like the first trade. Don't send out SOO CHOO

Thanks for the feedback Mike.

Disagree completely.

Jack Wilson is a solid SS who can field very well and is a career .270 hitter. He's solid and there's a market for him.

Maholm is a 27 year old lefty starting pitcher who is coming off a 9-9 season with a 3.71 ERA on one of the worst teams in baseball. Demand for a guy like that would be pretty high, especially among a contender looking to solidify the rotation.

Most defenitely, theres a good chance he could get moved in real life anyway.
Some good pitching (relievers) would have to be the centerpiece though. Maybe Nunez

Agreed. The Tigers would want some pitching in return. Maybe even Cody Ross himself.

Doing the same as Mike, starting a Nationals chise here shortly.

My intention is with K-Rod coming to NY, make an attempt at bringing Wagner to Washington and solidfy the closer spot a little better. I was thinking the LF: Josh Willingham and a pitching prospect for Wagner and maybe a back-up outfielder that would be a solid role-player?

Think this would be semi-realistic??

BTW: Im just going to be using default game rosters.

Thanks.

Sounds pretty good. The Mets IMO would most likely at least seriously consider the deal. Might be a little gunshy to trade ANY bullpen because of what happened last season but they'd at least think very strongly about it. Seems fair IMO.

Seems decent enough. The Nats most likely don't want anyone coming back in a trade that expects to start in the OF so keep that in mind.

Also keep in mind if you send Hafner over what do they do with Nick Johnson who is their starting 1B? Just something to keep in mind.

IMO the Nats would be more willing to deal Willingham for some bench OF'ers and some pitchers than they would want Hafner coming back.

I'd look at a: Willingham,Johnson to Cleveland for Hafner, Dellucci, Choo and maybe a pitcher.

Have you played with them in-game? lol.. Tell him Cudi.

Anyway in hell I would be able to snag Nate McClouth from the Pirates? This would be later on in my Marlins chise just like Mikes. Uggla, Ross, pitching and prospects could go. I just want to know if I could get him or not.

I have not because I don't play as the Pireates. Hell I could play with them and maybe have some luck and not want to trade them. I was talking about from a real-worl scenario it making sense/working out.

[Rylo]

Well yeah I know that. They are both decent to good in real life. So that part of the aspect you were talking about is true.

Now, someone want to help me with getting Nate McClouth on my team? Marlins.
