to offer me Kyle Seager & Rafael Betancourt for Michael Wacha
to offer me Kyle Seager & Rafael Betancourt for Michael Wacha
Not sure why that offends you. Wacha has made 1 start. I guarantee that he is not as good as he looked in that one. He could end up proving to be good, but when some of his injured teammates get healthy, back to the minors he goes. He has the talent to stick, it just isn't very likely.
You might not like Betancourt and Seager, but that looks like a good deal to me. Making a similar deal for a marginal RP that you like better could really help your team long term.
In addition to Wacha Ive got a damn good pitching staff already: Buchholtz, Kershaw, Moore, Sale, Grimm, Wilhelmsen (bench: Gonzalez, Hudson, Gausman)
IMO Betancourt is a little too marginal & Ive got Reynolds & Dominguez for 3rd
Not saying you should make the deal, I am just pointing out that it looks more than fair to an unbiased third party (me). If you like Wacha, keep him. Just recognize that now might be a really good time to flip him if you have needs elsewhere.
Had another crazy offer in another league: Shelby Miller for Verlander. Millers good but JVs gold
Cant figure what these guys are thinking, other then that Im clueless
Fishin' for Verlander...I admire that.
I offered that up in a CBS league(are you Burning River?). I wouldn't call that offer "crazy". Shelby is pitching great right now. JV isn't pitching like his normal self, and hasn't all year. Even his average velocity is down. Shelby even has more points than JV right now, even if it is only a mere 5.Had another crazy offer in another league: Shelby Miller for Verlander.

Not sure why you're taking this so badly, the offer isn't a crazy one. Hopefully the above post enable you to become less clueless.Cant figure what these guys are thinking, other then that Im clueless
Actually the offer Im talking about was in my Browns Friends league (forgot you made the same offer) - same guy that keeps scooping up all available 2-starters & putting up 12 PSRs to everybody elses 6 or 7
Re your trade offer - if you would of put up Chatwood or Ryu for JV I probly would have bit
Ryu is killing it also. The Dodgers didn't shell out all that money just to get some middle of the road pitcher. Dude has the tools.
