Originally posted by whalewang View PostMy latest crap that I received (9 team NL-only keeper league):
His $59 Tulo + $10 Wade Miley for my $15 Heyward + a minor leaguer
Tulo is not keepable at that price and Miley has marginal value at best (I really don't know if I'd keep him if he was on my roster) for a fantastic keeper in Heyward. I declined without comment or counter.

I was offered a 5 dollar Tyler Colvin (2nd year), and a 6 dollar Logan Morrison (option), for my 1 dollar Rafael Soriano (2nd year)...AFTER he was named the Nats closer. I politely declined."Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."

I just inquired about Justin Upton in a 15 team mixed and was offered Upton & Tyler Skaggs for Pujols, Matt Moore and Martin Perez. I think I'm going to pass on that one.

Originally posted by Mithrandir View PostJust giving you some crap !! But truthfully..right now...that offer stinks for Trout. Hosmer may be really good or he may be mediocre. Utley is old and creaky. And while i like Anderson, he's had arm problems every year.
I bet you would be soooo wrong about Hosmer for Trout. Trout was rated the number one or two prospect at that time.

Originally posted by Hornsby View PostHere's the issue as I see it...you're essentially projecting maximum stats for Pierre and minimum stats for Heyward. Pierre has stolen more than 40 bags only once in the last 5 seasons, and has had 50 or more RBI only once in the last ELEVEN years, last year he had 25. So saying that the 2 players are going to be anywhere within 40 RBI of eachother is terribly wrong, IMO. And last year Pierre had 37 steals, and Heyward had 21...add in the fact that Pierre is 35 and Heyward is 23 and it makes it no contest, IMO.
I guess that I should also say that I assume that Gregg is going for it this season, and not building for the future. Either way, Heyward is a much more attractive trade chip to a team that's gunning for a title.
But I still wouldn't do it, either.

Originally posted by Lucky View PostNot really. It was another poster who projected an 80-rbi difference. I was just showing that huge projections regarding Heyward are speculation based upon what he might do...not upon what he has done before. And with Pierre leading off, runs and steals could edge closer to prior levels. He has, after all, done it before. And you keep forgetting that $16. In the hands of the right player, that can be a major weapon.
But I still wouldn't do it, either.
As far as the 16 bucks is concerned, yes, it could indeed be a major weapon to the right player. But I've also seen people leave double digit money on the table, so I probably don't factor that in as highly as you do."Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."
