2019 Trade Thread

[Becks6]

New York Cosmos Get:

P Matsudaira Iida
P Tom Ingram (AA)
P Lawrence Boulter (A)
OF John Garris (R)
C Anastasio Soto (R)


Minneapolis Vikings Get:

OF Julian Peters (AAA)



As always, DK very likely gets the better end...but alas, he always seems to be the most available and willing to make a deal when I need to make one. I originally offered Soto and Garris for Peters. That wasn't a sure thing, so I decided I give up more and use this as my time to dump Iida, whose 10.3 million is nice to get off the books.

Thanks DK.

[DKCecil]

Since I will be shedding so much salary, adding Iida for one year won't hurt too much. Plus, I got a few interesting players out of it.

This was a complicated deal and I still don't know if I'm getting the better end of it, but should be interesting with Kawashima and Ikeda at the top of my rotation next season. Good luck to New Orleans in fitting all the new pieces in.

[Buane]

I'm assuming all those picks should be 2019?

[jmantemp]

I'm assuming all those picks should be 2019?

Actually... the 2nd rd. pick is 2019 (the upcoming draft); but the other two picks should be in the draft after that (so 2020 I guess). The Juggernauts have my 3rd round pick in this upcoming draft. So we settled on giving New Orleans the 3rd and 4th rd. picks a year from now. Which is actually why Javier Contreras is included too.

[Buane]

Got it, thanks

Why do I always have to make myself so involved in these?

[Prf15]

Thank you, that should help a bunch. Sorry for the mix up on picks. 2nd rounder is this year and 3rd and 4th is next year, like jman pointed out.

I am bored at work and on this right now. It's, um... well, let's just say people got friendly with some of their draft picks. Super friendly.

[Tecmo]

Denver trades:
2019 2nd round pick
Miami's 2019 2nd round pick

Washington trades:
1B Josh Farmer
RF Christian Crossley

Fills a couple holes in my lineup. Was looking at roughly equivalent players in free agency, but these two are younger and cheaper.

Denver digs the long ball.

Washington agrees to the follow accord, thanks Tecmo. One more step closer to making money this season...

Dallas Gets:
2019 1st Rd Pick (#4)

Boston Gets:
2019 1st Rd Pick (#6)
2019 6th Rd Pick (#126)
MR Clifford Smith (A)

We really wanted to move up to grab Salgado who fills an organizational hole which allows us to complete another deal.

Thanks for the quick and easy deal Norm

[NormV]

Boston confirm.

Hope Salgado works out for you.

Norm

[ajkeence99]

Dallas Gets:
MR Norm Fisk

SF Gets:
SS Manuel Cavera (R)
2019 4th Rd Pick (#78)

Liked Cavera, who is a few years off still, but obviously Salgado makes him expendable and allows us to shore up the back end of the rotation. Thanks Felix

[Felix]

Confirmed. Fisk was expendable given the massive number of relievers I have, and Cavera fits my ridiculous defensive demands of any SS. Nice working with you AJ

[Jontler]

Pittsburgh and Philadelphia have made the following extremely exciting trade.

Philadelphia sends:
OF Carl Stanley

Pittsburgh sends:
P Ray Todd

Toronto trades the #14 and #15 picks in this years draft to St Louis for $70 million dollars in cash.

This should get us almost back in the black and allows us to keep our young core of Henderson/Plecks/Berube/Kim in place for a while longer.

Confirmed. We've got some spare cash, so we trade it for a pair of picks and try to make life harder for the Goffs in the Gemini.

[McExpos]

I accept the Philly trade, and I laugh at the Toronto trade.

[Becks6]

Craziness.

[Prf15]

Wow that is nuts, how in the hell did Toronto get 70 million for two 1st round picks? That is 35 mil per pick.

St Louis was bleeding cash. They can only carry over $100 million at the end of the season, and they earned more than that last year. With their payroll where it is they'll make all of this back within a few seasons.

If you've got cash burning a hole in your pocket and you're going to lose some of it to the cash cap anyhow, why not get something of value for it, right?

[Felix]

San Francisco sends:
OF Rob Hall

Pittsburgh sends:
OF Pedro Vega
(RL) 1B Jorge Cortez

[McExpos]

Confirmed.

I get better defense, Alex gets better offense. I get financial flexibility, he gets a key player for the next two years (rather than having to let Robzilla and his, I'm sure, eleventy billion dollar contract demands walk). He also gets Jorge Cortez, who I hate for reasons I can't articulate, but I do hate him.
