hes a helluva salesman.  persistent.  relentless.  could easily be jerry's latex salesman.

And why are you trying to trade for players you end up denigrating in your next post?

Man, that's crazy like a FOX

who was the guy you picked up yesterday?  Dansby?  hes at 8 now.  if he finishes top 10 i will shit in my hat.

that's fine, because this is roto, not H2H. it's been 5 weeks since i made the trade offer, and everything that dansby has done in that time counts for the long haul, unlike in H2H. i think Giolito has 3 total games played since then, while Dansby has been hitting .350, scoring runs, and stealing bases. for the majority of the last 5 weeks i've had 10-11 points in R, HR, RBI, and SB. what has giolito done for huge? nothing. at some point y'all gotta realize that we aren't playing H2H this year. 

[shadow_operative 15932]

@huge nothing wrong with the offer, i just don't have anywhere to play him. if one of my OF were to get hurt/sick we'd have a deal. just something to consider should that happen.

that's another thing about this crazy, fucked up, truncated, probably-not-gonna-finish-anyway season: we have doubled down on changing our league for 2020. not only is it roto this year, but it's a 60 game season with a very real possibility of never being completed. if you aren't at the top of the table and one of your good players gets sick, you may as well trade spam all of the top teams with offers for him, seeing as they can absorb the 2-3 week hit and you can't. it's an absolute sprint, as opposed to a 5 month marathon. plus you can be a little extra cavalier with your moves because of the time constraints (as evidenced by all of the high draft picks who are currently struggling and have been dropped).  shit is mad crazy yo.

I don't even know what planet I'm on

[shadow_operative 15932]

that trade is uh...interesting. 

[shadow_operative 15932]

Team A: career Mendoza line hitter/non-everyday player + a pitcher who is never healthy

Team B: A perennial top 5-10 fantasy/MLB player and the Red Sox closer

How did IKF go undrafted? Dude is a roto machine. 

[NOMAAA 1699]

Story and Xander are on the block. Need outfield or sp. Make it happen. Renato is too I guess. 

[NOMAAA 1699]

outfield and pitching.  not dh and pitching. 

[Fawesome 111]

He was on my short list but the Rangers blow so I decided to go elsewhere. But I agree.

[henrygandorf 29218]

arenado has homered in every game since that "fair" trade.

shocking.

He sucks.  Also that trade was proposed to me.  Arenado was batting like .180 at the time.  Darvish was/is pitching well.

You do?

[shadow_operative 15932]

 If I were advertising that I was looking for OF help and a guy with Yelich, Merrifield, Rosario, and Luis Robert sent me an offer, i'd probably at least make him a counter. And Teoscar Hernandez ain't bad himself, so. 🤷🏼‍♂️ 

[shadow_operative 15932]

annnnd Hernandez just went yard.

i'm in the market for a closer. whatever position you need, i've probably got a player or two (or five) that are pretty good, so holla at me.

Hey who pitched for the Cubs today my internet is down

Strasburg didn't last a full inning. Do I lose a start for that?

Ohtani didn’t last an out. So yes.

[shadow_operative 15932]

my 5th best OF went 3/5 with 2 HR and 4 RBI tonight. too bad nobody here needs any OF help. 🤷🏼‍♂️ 

[NorthLoop 14420]

Bad thing about this playoff configuration. Judge gets a charlie horse and goes on the 10 day IL. Why not?

Maybe you should propose another trade with a guy you picked up off the waiver wire
