two problems you might be able to help me with:
1) i have tim anderson and paul dejong, i don't need both. would trade one for a 2B, or maybe 1B, or maybe pitcher of some variety. 2) my potential keepers for 2020 include four 27-29 studs (arenado, judge, castillo, betts -- all 27 next year except arenado who will be 28) but my under 27 crop is (comparatively) weak (buxton, robles, wander franco, mcmahon). i'm definitely listening if someone finds themselves in the opposite situation, looking to shore up their mid-age keepers.

uhhhhh hey so this is awkward.
when i accepted the trade i didnt see mookie in it at all.
i thought it was over the top doing winker and ozzie for lourdes but acceptedf anyweay. then i saw the email, and nightmares.
any chance we can reverse this trade? def willing to negotiate but i fucked up big time

why would you even accept such a one sides trade?! (as-in the one you thought you saw and not the actual trade)

I was in a league long ago where one of the managers would constantly throw these absurd trade offers out there trawling for someone to click the wrong button and sure enough someone would and then there would be a desperate campaign for folks to vote against said trade, haha (it wasn't me).
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Friday, 31 May 2019 22:25 (four years ago) link
the deed is done. and i don't think the trade was absurd!

Said keeper had surgery to repair said busted testicle and may (?) begin light baseball activities shortly.

now that i'm not in first place anymore i feel like i'm allowed to complain about how badly my pitching rotation is fucking me
― na (NA), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 16:58 (four years ago) link
some of which was me gambling on streaming options, sure, but my young hotshot pitchers (paddack, strahm, and fried) fell apart and stasburg has had some shitty games recently. on the plus side, darvish has been gradually improving and clevinger just came off the IL, so hopefully that plus verlander will stem the bleeding
― na (NA), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 17:12 (four years ago) link
Having been in last place all season despite having an across-the-board fine offense I feel that. My best pitcher has been the thoroughly solid #4 guy Mike Minor.

My mistake last year was waiting too long to make a deal and push for first. Just hoping Springer comes back as hot as he was before the injury. And stays healthy obviously.

i believe alonso is a keeper for me, i drafted him
― na (NA), Monday, 24 June 2019 21:24 (four years ago) link
or is keeper-eligible, i mean. but maybe you mean he was a free agent prior to the draft.
― na (NA), Monday, 24 June 2019 21:25 (four years ago) link
you haven't kept him yet!

just an FYI – i accidentally hit the "-" button next to Winkler's name instead of closing the window, and then return because i am dumb and was closing a bunch of windows at once and not paying attention. hence the drop and instant re-add in the transactions.

usually my pitching is great and my hitting is mediocre and this year it's the other way around, i'm averaging 2 pts per pitching category.
