Welcome back man!

Rodon struggled to keep the lead through 5 IP but alas, he still has the lead.

Are Mets pitchers not allowed to go for complete games?

Haha thanks for the save degrom!!

[QUOTE=enbambam6986;9424009]Haha thanks for the save degrom!![/QUOTE]

Only at 100 pitches and gave up 4 hits with no walks but he doesn't come out for the 9th. Makes no sense to me.

[QUOTE=SportsAutoFreak;9422902]I need to get back into this.[/QUOTE]

Wo w

That's a big trade there

Boom shaka laka! It was a tough call to let Bumgarner go, but I love Altuve and I'm happy to get Odorizzi back in the deal. I'm happy.

I don't understand that trade from SMTG's perspective, but if he's happy, so am I.

I know Altuve is one of the best (if not the best) 2nd baseman around, but Bumgarner is an amazing pitcher and those are really hard to find.

He has plenty of those plus Jofer about to come off DL soon. When you are stacked like that at pitchers it enables you to make moves like that.

That, and my offense is a mess. This gives me a young, solid 2B/3B/SS combo for many years to come. Odorizzi is no slouch either. He's only 25 and getting better.

I may regret it if we face off in the finals though...

NBA draft! C'mon Knicks

Glad the Twolves didn't screw up their pick. Not a huge NBA fan, but I'd like for the Wolves to succeed eventually

Why do I always have to be playing the one team who's scoring more points than me? Just bad luck.

Can't mess up with the top crop 4 of Towns/Russell/Okafor/Mudiay

BOOYAH! Complete game shutout win for Keuchel! +47 points

[QUOTE=death2redemptions;9426045]BOOYAH! Complete game shutout win for Keuchel! +47 points[/QUOTE]

I will trade u Matt Wisler for Dallas Keuchel

Probably as nice of a night I could ask from my starters at this point. I'm glad Nola is doing well in Triple-A.

My batters were great tonight (43 points), but my pitchers were meh (30 points, starts from Burnett and Gray)

Firerunner has 5 pitchers going today

Since today was finally the official last day of school in New York City, I want to celebrate by making some trades. Everyone except for Trout and Scherzer is up for trade, though some guys will be harder to get.

Offer sent. Let's make a deal!

Offer sent. Let's make a deal!

I'm willing to trade Justin Upton for a good pitcher if anyone is interested as well. I'd actually trade any of my hitters except Posey and Miggy.

Send me some offers! I like looking at them.

[QUOTE=sam11;9427546]Trade me Kipnis[/QUOTE]
Kipnis will be hard to get, but I may trade him for top pitching.

[QUOTE=Hollywood42;9427554]I want Shelby[/QUOTE]
I'll trade him if Sonny Gray is involved.

[QUOTE=SaveMeTheGum;9427578]Offer sent. Let's make a deal![/QUOTE]
Not really interested in Pineda, nor do I want to trade both Miller and McCullers at the same time. Maybe I'll trade one, but still not really interested in Pineda (I like JoFer though).

[QUOTE=Homerun;9427583]Offer sent. Let's make a deal![/QUOTE]
I need better pitching than that if I'm trading one of my top guys. Maybe a blockbuster deal involving you know who.

Counter me bro...

[QUOTE=SaveMeTheGum;9427617]Counter me bro...[/QUOTE]
I will, but who would you like more in the deal, Miller or McCullers, as I don't want to trade both.

If Gray is a necessity to get Shelby, we won't be able to work something out

[QUOTE=7jacfire;9427606]I'll trade him if Sonny Gray is involved.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Hollywood42;9427747]If Gray is a necessity to get Shelby, we won't be able to work something out[/QUOTE]
Not a necessity, but I will need some top pitching for Miller and Ventura as the only pitcher in a deal won't do it for me.

[QUOTE=7jacfire;9427636]I will, but who would you like more in the deal, Miller or McCullers, as I don't want to trade both.[/QUOTE]

Interested in either if I can't have both. No preference.

Sent another offer. More trying to gauge interest right now

That one is better, but I'm going to wait and see what happens with SMTG before I decline, counter, or decide to accept that offer.

Sounds good. Feel free to PM me if you think it would be easier to discuss if need be

Ok. I'll PM you if I decide to counter.

Only one other team has 200 points as of today...and of course it's the team I'm facing.

Buxton out a month....ouch

Semien is having an awful month lol [url=http://espn.go.com/mlb/player/gamelog/_/id/32146/marcus-semien]Marcus Semien Game By Game Stats and Performance - Oakland Athletics - ESPN[/url] I think they're batting him 9th tho too. Less rbi opportunities. Anyone want him? :D

About time I start putting up points again. My last 2 weeks were straight awful

[QUOTE=death2redemptions;9427953]Only one other team has 200 points as of today...and of course it's the team I'm facing.[/QUOTE]

He just can't seem to stay healthy wrong anymore. I don't even know when he hurt himself, I only heard the news when the Twins announced he was going on the DL. Maybe it happens when he slides. He's had a few really awkward looking slides. For as fast and athletic as he is, his running motion and slides look really, really weird

[QUOTE=enbambam6986;9427957]Buxton out a month....ouch[/QUOTE]

My trade got turned down. I offered Brantley and Gordon for Lindor and Pederson.

Hahaha roughly a quarter of my posts on BO have come in this thread

I have a tempting offer of Hanley and Gallo for Brantley. I'm leaning towatds declining.

I'm trying to work out a deal that nets me Lindor and I part with Brantley. Id rather give up Brantley or Gordon than give up both. Giolito, Nola, Schwarber, Russell and McKinney are off limits.

Kennedy will be dropped soon. I'm taking offers for Alex Gordon. Lindor is now off limits.

Wut.......

[QUOTE=sam11;9428224]Wut.......[/QUOTE]

You can criticize me all you want. I'm not backtracking on this trade.

So Michael Brantley was just traded so you could get Lindor who is known for his glove and not for his bat...

Isn't Francisco Lindor known for his defense? Same with Alex Gordon. Alex Gordon will put up .270/20/80 but he's 31, idk enough about Lindor to say really. Brantley is 28 and will do .300+/~20/~100 and rarely Ks. You're going to drop Kennedy, you have so many middle relief. You're going to have 3 ML pitchers on your team...

I can find Kennedy for someone else. I've been through a lot of pain and misery in my own personal life recently and I'm thankful for life right now. Come at me and call me out. I don't mind and won't retreat.

Seriously? This league is competitive and fun except for one person... Terrible trade after terrible trade and then the reasons behind the trades make zero sense.

Though I'd like to do well and improve my fortunes in the future, Dynasty Baseball is merely a game.

Man,my team has been terrible this month. Maybe I should of drafted these players 5 years ago lol

SAF, hope everything is alright

Really want to trade, also I really wish I didn't use my 2 pickups as I'm itching to make a few pickups of guys that are available

Firerunner, I'm always looking for offers

Matt Moore is close to coming back, hopefully he shores up my disastrous pitching

[QUOTE=Hollywood42;9428605]Firerunner, I'm always looking for offers[/QUOTE]

Sent you an offer, feel free to counter

I said in my decline notice that I would need 1 good pitcher, but I'm open to a batter too. Just would have to be equal or greater fantasy value

[QUOTE=Firerunner4;9428817]Sent you an offer, feel free to counter[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Hollywood42;9428493]SAF, hope everything is alright[/QUOTE]

It is. Thank You. I'll decline to give details, but I just thankful for life after what I've gone through the past two weeks. So if I make a bad trade, life is still a beautiful thing.

Sure, not trying to pry. Just hope all is well

Come at me bro. :coffee:

It's all about stockpiling on younger talent at this point. The season is a wash. Going forward is all that matters.

Anyone interested in Vincent Velasquez?

Syndergaard should of had a complete game tonight

Ben Revere home run!!!

I wish the Rays would make their mind up on their closer.. Ugh. I need to know if I can drop Jake McGee

It pisses me off that I'd be winning against any other team right now. This will be the third time that has happened to me. My luck has ran out.

I'm just amazed that after my last 2 weeks, my team is magically good again

[QUOTE=SportsAutoFreak;9429785]It's all about stockpiling on younger talent at this point. The season is a wash. Going forward is all that matters.[/QUOTE]

I really hope this trade doesn't go through. This is starting to get out of hand.

Michael Brantley
Jung Ho Kang
Anthony DeSclafani

for

Fransico Lindor
Alex Gordon
Ian Kennedy (Who he is dropping)

Am I really the only one who doesn't think the trade is that bad? Really the only significant player SAF is sending away is Brantley. Kang and DeSclafani haven't done much of anything this year. And he's getting a top prospect in Lindor in return, and Gordon, who is a solid OF option. Honestly, not sure why a few think it's so bad

LMAO Sam was worried I had 5 starters going today....here are their totals

-14
-8
0
11
19

What a joke my pitching is

A rookie pitcher that is 5-5 with a 3.35 ERA (SAF has no SP)
A rookie SS/3B who is hitting .274 4HR 25 RBI with a ton of potential
A Star in the outfield when healthy last yr hit .327 20 HR 97 RBI

for

Lindor a rookie SS who is known for defense and
Gordon who is 31 and an average outfielder

There is no possible way this trade is close to being legitimate. Lindor is no where near a legit top fantasy prospect.
