You make the call(WHIR!)

Postby Holein1 » Sat Aug 14, 2010 10:41 am

In our league if there is a few objections to a trade we post it on here and let unbias people make the decision. This is a 12 team regular roto league. We can keep 5 players a year but only for 3 years. Top 3 teams get in the money.

Team 1 (in 7th place) trades:

Linceum (cannot be kept)
AArandsma (10th round)
Dominic Brown (20th round)

Team 2 (in 1st place) trades

Carlos Gonzalas (12th round)
Mazzaro (20th round)
Lowe (16th round)

Please let us know if this is fair

I would say its one sided but I definitely wouldn't say its rejectable. It just looks like one side is selling huge on CarGo so he can maintain his pitching lead with Lince since he can't be kept and hope for a semi-decent OF return in Dominic Brown.

This seems like a deal that would be found in real baseball. Team out of the hunt sells contract year guy (Lincecum since he can't be kept) for young talent (CarGo in the 12th). The team out of it benefits for the future and the team playing for this year benefits now, but may hurt themselves for the future. No harm in that type of deal. Seems good to me.

Speaking of Lincecum, Please help here: viewtopic.php?t=418310

Yeah, nothing wrong with this deal. The 7th place team is getting a top player for next year, and the 1st place team bolsters his pitching staff while retaining a possible breakout for OF next year. I'd definitely want to be on one side of this versus the other, but that's no reason to veto it.

Help with mine? viewtopic.php?f=26&t=418267
