Marstro's Mets.

[Tecmo]

Washinton trades LF Austin Wates

Baltimore trades SP Robinson Lopez

Fresh starts

[tadashi]

Baltimore Accepts.

[Tecmo]

Washington trades SS Nick Franklin

Alaska trades SP Sadahige Kichida and MR Doug Parrish

Couldn't resist the Elephant Boy

[McExpos]

Confirmed.

Maybe Kichida will develop to be the stud that he looks like on paper. It's certainly possible. But there aren't a lot of SS's in the league that can put up an OPS of .750 or so and play plus-plus defense, and Franklin is still only 25. Plus, he's a switch-hitter, and I really like switch-hitters.

I never regret trading pitchers. I'm not built to do that.

Mets Acquire:
CF - Carlton Boyd (AA)
SS - Marcus Littlewood (AAA)

Cardinals Acquire:
3B - Jefry Marte
2B - Martin Prado
1B - Kevin Youkilis (AAA)

Pick up some defensive specialists. Cut some $$$. With the addition of Triunfel and Castro, Marte's at bats were heading no where so hopefully SLC can put him to good use. Easy as that.

Finally got Prado...my dear Prado, thanks for coming home. It's whatever really...salary dump...

You guys need to stop trading with each other or I'm going to accuse you of collusion.

[Tecmo]

Washington trades Strasburg

New York Mets trade:
SS Chris Rivera
C Tommy Finley
SS Tommy McCoy
SP JC Ramirez
Mets 1st round pick in the next draft

Hate trading Strasburg, especially within the division but getting the best SS prospect in baseball and all the other pieces was too good to pass up

[thrift]

Indians/Nationals Trade

Indians trade:
SP - Miguel Torres (A)

Nats trade:
CF - Jordan Schafer
SP - Brett Cecil

[aceman034]

Mets accept.

Huge package to give up but getting the best pitcher in the league in the prime of his career. Its go time now.

[Tecmo]

Nats confirm the trade with the Indians. Stocking up on pitching prospects

[Spindelphia]

Man, I was gonna give you like 3 drafts worth of picks.

Bah, I like this package better. Would never get a player the quality of Rivera with any of those picks. I'll take quality over quantity any day.

[Spindelphia]

Rivera was drafted with one of my picks, IIRC.

[aceman034]

No Rich, Rivera was drafted the year you went to the world series. And he was a top 5 pick...

[Spindelphia]

Meh, whatever. Taking Reyes from you got you that pick. :P

[Harlock]
