redsox Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I hate to say it, but this deal is an even bigger rip-off :wink: . But you should do whatever you think is necessary for you team you know. Just because others think a deal is a ripoff, you don't have to heed their words and trade them back. As long as you are trading with fair trades ON then you have done a good move. Anyway, keep up the good work man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I traded for Ellsbury, Hinske, and Pedroia and when I went to see if it's fair I traded them back and the Red Sox denied it. That's how I thought it was a fair deal. These three guys aren't very good, but two of them will potentiall be all-stars. Guzman, Jones, and Iztruris are all better than the 3 I traded for, but I needed them. Thanks for the stop by and the comments. It's nice to get a few comments here and there. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronx_Bum Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Just because the computer accepts a trade it doesn't mean it's 'fair'. You have to follow baseball enough to know that the Red Sox are going to part ways with Pedroia for that garbage. But like redsox said, it's your dynasty and you do what ya gotta do. It's an enjoyable read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an enjoyable read. Thanks for the comments. I know that just because the CPU accepts a trade it doesn't means that it's fair. I've done some trades that have been wild, but I felt that this trade was good enough to be "fair", as they did get some young talent. Overall, the Red Sox look like a team that wants to win it now and are looking at the future, but don't have the spects needed to win for the future. That's why I thought it was fair. Thanks for the comments and enjoy the rest of the dynasty. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronx_Bum Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Thanks for your thoughts about the trade. We all have our differences about what would be a fair trade and what teams would really do. However, you gave them two pieces of crap (Jones/Izturis) and an injury-prone relief pitcher (that you referenced as an ace) for Ellsbury and Pedroia. That my friend is a stretch, and that might not even be the word for it. When Lee comes back, what are you going to do w/ Hinske? Also, why not bring up Micah Hoffpauir (if that is your AAA 1B)? Give him a shot in the bigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give him a shot in the bigs. Hmmm, that's interesting. I'll probably put Hinske on the bench. For now, I might use your plan and have Hoffpauir come up from AAA and use them as a split. Thanks for the output. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubsfaninfla Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I'm not trying to be mean, but why do you feel that it's necessary to make so many trades? (and a bunch of lopsided ones at that). Most trades don't happen until June and July, and teams don't make trades on a daily basis. Do what you want, but it's just my two cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most trades don't happen until June and July, and teams don't make trades on a daily basis. Do what you want, but it's just my two cents. Thanks for the output, but the reason I made a deal with Boston is because I needed to aquire a better 1st Baseman than Daryle Ward as he sucks because Lee got injured. Thanks for the comments and I hope you enjoy the rest of the dynasty. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xcrunner4623 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Tough loss. Always hard to give up that grand slam, rather it be in a lopsided game than a 3-0 lead in the 8th inning. Yeah, I just had that happen. Good luck with those trades and get those Cubs in the win column again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really didn't take me that long. Maybe 1 1/2 hour. I didn't start from scratch as I used the SI Team page. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
