What is enough for a guy like that? Seriously, 2, 3, 4 Studs? do you even consider top minor leaguers? How do you factor in age?

I'm a dynasty league, I don't think you can trade away arguably the#1 player unless you're getting a truly massive haul. Other than that, it's hard to speak in generalities. No way would a top minor leaguer be a deal-maker for me.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

Too valuable to be traded for anything you could get, I would think. Unless this is the dynasty league that I am in with you, then any crap I offer you is very acceptable.

I've had a couple of offers, mulling them, but there would have to be adjustments to make either work and as great as Acuna is, people just never seem to wanna pay the freight. Not sure if you're in Lockdown, but if you were you'd have gotten the trade block email. so send me a crap offer and If I get drunk tonight, who knows :POriginally posted by cavebird View PostToo valuable to be traded for anything you could get, I would think.

That would definitely do it. Of course, there are offers that you have to take for Acuna, but as you have experienced, very rarely does anyone want to give what would make sense--either a comparable young stud (Soto or Tatis), or a combo of top talent above and beyond what most folks would give.Originally posted by Gregg View PostComment

I dont even have the ammo in that league to make an offer.Comment

Yeah, I think any offer needs to start with a top 10 or 15 dynasty asset and then contain an awful lot of present or future value in addition to that.Comment

I hate that when it happens to me.Originally posted by Ken View Post
I like to make offers that I would say yes to (or very close to it). It is terrible to look over my roster and just go nope.Comment

You're right.Originally posted by joncarlos View Post
Any offer that I'd accept for Acuna is one I would not be comfortable making if I'm on the other side of it.Comment

Wow. Takes stones to pull the trigger.Comment

Yeah I really liked your offer, but I feel this team has a chance to compete now and tatis alone wasn't going to accomplish that. But Thanks for the chats.Originally posted by Hornsby View Post
