Okay, I have several players that are available. All are in their last year of their contracts: SP - Matt Wheatland -good in hits -actual ratings are: 2B/CF - Farmer Matthew 1B/DH - Paul Konerko OF - Juan Encarnacion OF - Kevin Mench (not in the last year of his contract) What do I need? Good young players that are cheap of course or prospects! I could even trade these guys for MRs. Let me know if you are interested.
I could possibly part with 1B Nick Johnson for the right price (that would be good quality prospects.)
The Giants are still looking to dump an OF, maybe two, since last season. Available: <b>CF M.Beck</b>: Good leadoff or #2 type hitter Getting Hits Talent :Good Hitting Doubles Talent :Average Hitting Homeruns Talent :Average Getting BB's Talent :Good Avoiding Strikeouts Talent :Good B Speed, B S.A., B in CF, C in RF, C arm 32 yrs old <b>In return</b>: Maybe a MR + a decent prospect (any pos) ----- <b>RF D.Wentzel</b>: Decent hitter 5-7 in order Getting Hits Talent :Average Hitting Doubles Talent :Average Hitting Homeruns Talent :Good Getting BB's Talent :Good Avoiding Strikeouts Talent :Average D speed, D S.A., D in RF, C arm 30 yrs old <b>In return</b>: Not much, maybe MR ----- <b> LF/RF R.Joliff </b> : Average starter Getting Hits Talent :Average Hitting Doubles Talent :Average Hitting Homeruns Talent oor Getting BB's Talent :Good Avoiding Strikeouts Talent :Good B Speed, B S.A., C in LF, B in RF, A arm Only 26 yrs old <b>In return</b>: Good setup MR, or prospect --------- Another thing I could do is package one of those OF's, 1B Eric Munson or 3B Mike Lamb (both in last year of contract), and possibly one of my SP for a somewhat younger 1B or 3B that's a very good hitter. Let me know here if interested.
Update: All of my players that were on the block are gone except for Mench and the Farmer. Johnny Prosser and Don Levinski could also be had. Thanks to injuries to Twiggy and Nanny and Gobble, Young, Bong, and Cy all sucking, I might need a major league ready SP, but I would be willing to listen to any offers.
Giants now have either Mike Lamb or Eric Munson available...both in the last year of their contracts. Could help a team in contention needing a 1B or 3B. I could trade them for decent prospects or pretty good MR's.
Nomar-- I am interested in Cruz or Amar, and less in Vincente. Let me know if I could get Cruz or Amar, especially Cruz, without giving up Spohn or any of my ML OF's. I could include Eric Munson or Paul Konerko in deals, both in the last year of their contract.
I have several Major League caliber players available on my AAA roster. I am 44-8 and don't have room for them on the Major league level. I would be willing to part with them for A or AA class prospects of equal or similar value. I coule even possibly be persuaded to trade much sought after prospect Lucas Corso. Let me know if there is any interest. CK
Castor, I am interested in the following players, in order: Raymo Corso Epps Moss I really don't know if I have anything to give you that are younger than Raymo or Corso. However, I do have some pretty good young MR's that I could give you for Epps or Moss. Go ahead and look and see if you like anything for the first two, if not, I'd still like to deal for one of the MR's.
IVFL: I noticed that you just did your first trade. You have a boatload of free agents and I can help you by trading you some players who are not in the last year of their contract. I have come up with a 6 for 4 deal (you get 6 players and I get 4) plus you get cash. If you are interested, please respond in this thread (and then I will elaborate more about my deal). We would have to work out any deals very soon, as the next sim that Zac does will be past the trading deadline.
I have a surplus of staarting pitchers and they b**** when I give them bullpen duty so if anyone need a SP I have a few available, the best one being C.C. Sabathia who have been starting for me the first 12 seasons, but with prospect Dave Wedding breaking out he has been placed in the bullpen. Name Age Role HITS HOMERS WALKS STRIKEOUT DUR C. Sabathia 33 SP Good Average Average Good D M. Baker 28 SP Average Good Good Brilliant E J. Bonderman 30 SP Fair Good Brilliant Brilliant A What do I want back? As these players is located in the bullpen I need one replacement there. I also would like a prospect or 2nd player. But I'm open for bigger deals too. Just talk to me in the chat or post a message here.
Heath: interested in Tom Prentice(F-G-G-B)? He's torn up AAA, and ready for the majors as a reliever. I'll give you him and Earl Orman (A-F-G catcher, B speed, A range) for Mouse Baker. Also, does anyone want Chris George? 33 year old dominant pitcher, A duration-- could put a lot of teams over the top. I'm looking for depth in my younger pitching to do this... I'd like a couple of pitchers, but not two average pitchers... there must be one very good young pitcher in the deal for me to trade George.
Still have 1B Munson and 3B Lamb available, looking for young to middle aged relievers or a package to improve starting pitching. 1B E.Munson: A-G-G-A-A; A Range : 35 yr old, final year of contract. 3B M.Lamb: A-A-G-A-G; A Range : 37 yr old, final year of contract. I might trade: CF/RF M.Beck: G-A-A-G-G; B CF Range, A RF Range : B Speed, B S.A.; Final year of contract. For Beck, I would want a pretty good MR, and maybe a prospect of some sort. <b>The Cat</b>, I have some interest in George, but I don't know if I have what you need. I could give you Wright or Baker + E.Gutierrez. Let me know if interested.
DH, I have interest in Baker, but can you make the young pitcher Brian Spohn instead of Guitierrez? I know he's closer to the majors, and for doing that I'll throw in Miguel Jaramillo, a young G-A-G first base prospect. Would George and Jaramillo for Baker and Spohn interest you?
Cat, I don't think I can do that. For Spohn, I'd need another pretty good prospect. While Jaramillo is pretty good, I already have two 1B prospects waiting to come up. I could even add in a player like SS J.Johnson (A-A-A) to sweeten the deal. Or I could give you one of my many final year of their contract players, just look at my previous post (and add Jim Nance to that).
DH, Any way you could throw in Herbert Taylor, your AAA pitcher, instead of Nance? I'd throw in my 29 year old AAA pitcher, Ralph Strum, if I could get Taylor... Strum is dominating AAA and should be ready for the majors. That would make the deal George, Strum for Baker, Guitierrez, Taylor... let me know. Also, to any other GM out there, I am still fielding offers for George, but I will probably have to make up my mind within the next hour, because after that I'll be gone for a few hours and Zac will probably sim.
Floyd Macklin (SP) is available for a very good young hitter... 2B, 3B, RF preferred. Chuck, d'you still want Tsao? Best tell me about it before the deadline. I still adore Brasel... Dylan, I'll give you Opitz and prospect 1B Lawrence Steinke for Osgood and a guy like, for example, Julian Gomez or Dennis Brown. To anyone else who hates their bullpen, and I know you're out there, virtually any of my relievers are available for hitting or SP prospects/young players.
