  • I traded a $7 carrasco and I am the one dumping...

    Strange dynamics in my 12 team only this season so I ended up making a dump deal in which I give up my $7 carrasco, contract expiring after 2017.

    In return, I received $5 correa (option next spring, probably going to go $15=3 years total), prospect Benintendi, and first year contract $1 Dan Norris (this guy was injured last season with an oblique strain, the same thing happened in his first start with my squad a few days ago, but not arm/shoulder related...fyi: after the 2014 season, in which he struck out 163 in 124 innings, sickels had him as the #3 pitcher prospect and b.a. had him as #18 overall).

    I have a couple of cheap pitching contracts (cobb $4A...Skaggs 1B). Of course, those two are nothing to pin your hopes on but they are cheap enough to be a start.

    Anyhow, three years of correa, at least two years of Norris, several years of benintendi for one year of carrasco. Pickings are slim, would you have done this trade if dumping ?

    Wait, you gave up just Carrasco for all that? Damn, even just getting Correa back alone would have been a coup, imo. Amazing deal for you.
    There were a couple of other parts included...mike fiers and trevor plouffe. and we exchanged my upton for his often injured souza.

    4 for 4

    I hope correa improves a little more in 2017 after almost two full seasons in Houston

          Agreed. This is the year to get Correa. He was dealt in one of my leagues for a somewhat better, but still pretty thin, return.
          I'm just here for the baseball.
