Is it just me ??


Is it just me ??

Is this as a bad a trade as I think it is:

Toby Harrah for Walt Bond

Re: Is it just me ??

The same owner did another one....

Don Baylor for Luis Tiant

Re: Re: Is it just me ??

I get that they are trying to rebuild but they certainly could have gotten better players in return

Re: Re: Is it just me ??

It's a custom league so it really should be discussed with your commissioner. If the discussion here stays civil, that's fine, but let's keep it kind.

Re: Is it just me ??

Well the commissioner is one of the people involved in the trades that's one of the reasons I brought it up here first. Wasn't sure how to handle it.

Re: Re: Is it just me ??

Ok, fair point. That's a tough one.

Re: Is it just me ??

Maybe there are picks involved I can’t see, but yeah the trade Is awful and I feel like those two have been brought up before on the boards. Based on memory, nothing I can find.

Re: Is it just me ??

No picks involved. Harrah will progress obviously but will never be a superstar. I don't know what to think about it. Another odd thing is the Indians owner has offered me a couple trades too, but they are not nearly as good as the 2 he has already made. And by good I mean good for me LOL. .

Re: Is it just me ??

Just seeing this now and since I am the commissioner (owner) in question, I would just add that the trade was offered to me as is. The owner in question is going the rebuild route. Could he have gotten more? Perhaps. I did not want to trade Harrah as I generally have trouble at his positions and do not like trading young players but Bond was a significant upgrade at outfield despite his age, Would I have traded two young players for him? Probably not. I might have offered another vet along with Harrah if that was requested.

I agree with Guy that this would have been best bringing up in our league first but have no issue seeing it here.

Re: Is it just me ??

I'm not in the league and so hesitate to comment further, but come on, that's a 5 ranked 24 year old SS who doesnt play good defense and I cant imagine ever gets past rank 25, for a 99 ranked stud hitter for a few seasons. Who offered it is irrelevant, but I can say 100% I'd never accept it if I was on the winning end. The entire league should revolt, and if they didnt, they arent paying attention. Again, that's a 5 rank for a 99 rank, age will never make up for it. That is not a rebuild. That's a giveaway.
