    I have just been offered Jason Kipnis for Joe Nathan - I have brandon phillips at 2b

    any reason NOT to do this trade.

    One of the ways to gain ground is to keep trading away steals and saves for overall upgrades

      I would definitely make that trade if I were you. Nathan may not even last that long anyway in the closer role.

        Last time I did one was 2013. When someone asked about why my team was so terrible after the draft, I told them I must messed up the settings somehow. But I wasn't going to let that keep me from trying to win!

          Make that deal right now if you haven't already.
          I'm just here for the baseball.

            done - let see if it goes through - if it doesnt then there is no way I can win this league - trades must be allowed as policy

              I was lukewarm on the idea but decided to get back in this year.

              IF Zunino Vogt Semien Headley Lowrie
              OF Jackson Davis Pompey
              U Cain Castellanos
              B Bonifacio Lind Eaton
              SP DHolland Roark Hendricks Peralta Chen
              RP Soria Neshek Smith Petit

              I like this team more than any of my previous 5. Mujica was the only claim I lost. I was 12th so I expected a few more guys to get plucked. Another team dropped Gregerson, but my waiver is still 12th, so I'm doubtful that I will get him.

                It's always fun. I don't know if I could skip this league. Of course, your team tends to look a lot better when you do it in February and have 6 weeks to work the wire. Here's where I am right now:

                C D'Arnaud
                1B Lind
                2B Lawrie
                3B P Alvarez
                SS Segura
                OF Crawford, D Jennings, D Santana
                UT Arcia, Alcantara

                BN K Bryant, Y Grandal, J Gyorko

                I'm torn on whether I should try to move Bryant for something crazy.

                SP Shelby Miller, Smyly, Hammel, Hutchison
                RP Brett Cecil, Latroy Hawkins, Boxberger, Wade Davis, Ken Giles, J Walden

                I need to add some more SPs. Assuming Rosenthal makes it through spring training as the closer, I'll be dropping Walden for someone like Hahn, Bauer, Keuchel, Garza, Eovaldi, Derek Holland

                  I couldnt find one of those leagues with the smaller roster that you guys seem to find. I just went with a standard 10-team roto on ESPN...looks like a solid 5th-place squad or so to me:

                  C- Ramos
                  1B- Pearce
                  2B- Gennett
                  3B- Aramis Ramirez
                  SS- Asdrubal Cabrera
                  MI- Alcantara
                  CI- Belt
                  OF- Granderson, Eaton, Eric Young, Byrd, Cain
                  UTIL- Headley
                  SP- Lackey, Hammel, Shoemaker, Taijuan Walker, Hendricks, Carlos Martinez, Shelby Miller, Paxton
                  RP- Casilla, Cecil, Soria, Ottavino

                    Pauly, I think most of us use Yahoo instead of ESPN, so that is likely why we have a different roster structure.

                    No luck yet on a Kris Bryant cut so that I can pick him up myself. joncarlos, I know I would have a difficult time trading Bryant myself being a Cubs fan, but if you can get a Top 30 ADP type player for him, it might be worth it. Another Cub fan may be willing to give you anything you would ask for in return at the moment. Of course, Bryant keeps showing rookie year Trout potential, which might make him better than anything you would likely get in return.

                    Here is my current roster. Napoli was just waived today, so I may grab him and cut Vargas or Souza. May not be worth burning my #4 waiver spot for him though.

                    C: Zunino
                    1B: Morse, Vargas
                    2B: Gennett, Micah Johnson
                    3B: Chisenhall, Lawrie
                    SS: J. Ramirez
                    OF: J.Pederson, G.Polanco, Pollock, Arcia, Souza
                    SP: Keuchel, Hammel, Taijuan Walker, Hutchison, Hahn, Duffy
                    RP: Hawkins, Cecil, Boxberger, Mujica

                      I like Napoli a lot but wouldn't burn the waiver spot

                      Just added C-Mart for Walden. Upside play

                        I did some tinkering today, and he was one of my adds.

                          Some guy dropped Gregory Polanco, Glen Perkins, and Gerrit Cole. I got Polanco but couldn't get the other 2.

                          Thought I signed up for a 10 team league but it is 12 team. Trade got vetoed in the league - 2 RPs for Jon Lester and Mike Trout. I think someone has two teams.

                            ok, i think i'm gonna try this. i am guessing though that it's going to be significantly harder as i'm drafting less than a week before the start of the season.

                              I don't think it will be that much harder. You will have more people paying closer attention as soon as the draft is done and looking at waivers but it won't be that much different.
                              I'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.

                                I feel like my team has too many outfielders but no one is out that that really needs to be picked up. Though Carlos Martinez is available. Who do you think I can drop? Also, Norris and Navarro are available. Do you guys like either of them over Grandal?
