Anyone need a catcher? Jonah Heim or Will Smith could be available for the right bidder. 

I might buy high on heim. What are your needs?

[NorthLoop 14183]

We need more IR spots. Every year half my team gets injured. 

[Fawesome 111]

Preferably better players.

[shadow_operative 15932]

sonofabitch. i just dropped Bader when i meant to drop Senzel. what's the protocol here? 

[John Cougar Melonballer 12]

move to give derka bader back, all in favor

[henrygandorf 29189]

i've been watching this backwards gametracker for so long i'm starting to forget which base is first.

[NOMAAA 1696]

Yes. Give him Vader back. 

[NOMAAA 1696]

Hey. Phil. Let me have this one. 

Regroup. You’ll be ok.

Nah my guys are taking a week off.

[shadow_operative 15932]

ive got one closer, so i should probably either move him or acquire another one. my one closer:

alexis diaz: 9 sv, 0.68 whip, k/9 17.55, making him the no.1 k/9 guy in fantasy, more than a full k ahead of felix bautista.

so send me some offers, fools.

Offer sent

[NOMAAA 1696]

Brother if you want to be serious I’m game.

well if you're going to offer me a 3 for 1 it would help if i had any interest in at least one of the three. 😂 

[UTPhil2006 3805]

I can offer you a 3B but not for like 6 days 

[shadow_operative 15932]

someone claimed bader, but it was my bad dropping him in the first place, so no worries. now if i accidentally drop pete alonso, i call dibs on getting him back.

[Fawesome 111]

Big trade!

Ish 

[NOMAAA 1696]

Been widely reported that Derka has the k pitchers. I’d like to suggest maybe mine are better? Thoughts?

[NOMAAA 1696]

Totally in jest. My pitching is 2 deep right now.

what were some tough decisions y'all made during the draft? for example i chose kyle tucker ahead of acuña

this, like all panic moves, has been a complete disaster. why do i do this to myself? 

[NorthLoop 14183]

Alcantara has been a big disappointment 

[Capn81 372]

Scherzer in round two and Swanson in round four have not panned out. Arenado in round three, until recently, was a disaster. Not great to punt three early rounds.

[UTPhil2006 3805]

Jung or Lemaywho on the block. Would prefer OF. 

[beer 3220]

Spreadsheet skillz in the win column.

[NOMAAA 1696]

Ha

It’s Robertson. He got the win.

Second time this season I forgot to move Ohtani from UTIL to P.

Damn it.

[BigOrange1 6433]

i need OF and SP if anyone is looking to offload anyone at those positions.  not really interested in doing anything dramatic at the moment, just looking for a top 15-25 player at each position.

the red team

[NOMAAA 1696]

am i the only one having a hard time with team names? 

[BigOrange1 6433]

no, i'm not interested in trading the #1 catcher for the #74 outfielder.

[henrygandorf 29189]

i'm wheeling and dealing tonight.  come at me.

I had another player in there that didn’t come through. Sorry. 

Conversely, I am punting saves. So thank you for the offer STRO but I have to pass. 

[NOMAAA 1696]

I do have a couple of that are due to rebound. If anyone would like to roll the dice on a buy low swap I am game. 

[shadow_operative 15932]

it's hard to make trades in a 14 team league when half the positions only have six guys who are worth a shit.

[shadow_operative 15932]

i've still got Alexis Diaz over here burning a hole in my roster. he was ranked the number three relief pitcher coming into today where he threw a one-hit ninth inning striking out three. he remains to be my only full-time closer and I welcome trade offers from anyone who is looking to improve in that category.

You can have Timmy Anderson or Mike Harris.
