Wow, there really is nobody available on the waivers... Did not realize this league was going to feel SO deep...

Don't think that is an MBBRL thing, just that the talent pool is really getting smaller...
I wholeheartedly disagree. ..many many 12 teams leagues usually have a team or two who mismanage their rosters. .never drop or add..don't look for those hidden gems...not here

Just to clarify, I'm in no way trying to "dis" any one, or any other leagues any of us might be in, its just that this league more than any other I've ever been in, is friggin tough.
The vast majority of people who get their tidbits from places like rotoworld, rotowire, or whatever, see these little blurbs about player x maybe getting a shot at a call up, or a starting role or whatever, and go pick him up. But here, 95% of the time, player X was drafted, or picked up a good month ago. Just crazy how on top of things most of our owners usually are.

If we're lucky enough to have snatched a player off the wire who ends up being an actual contributor, and not just a band aid, it feels like you've actually pulled off some sort of massive coup

TKO, I see you have been throwing me offers...

I will tell you, right now I can not trade Chapman for insignificant pieces, even if they are an upgrade from who I am starting... My pitching rotation is all about quantity and not quality, I need to have Quality at Closer to counteract the quantity at SP...

Unfortunately right now, Chapman's value on my team is at STUD level(meaning I wouldn't trade him unless I am getting a STUD back)...

Guess you're not trading him then. Cause I ain't going any stronger. I thought you were a Kipnis guy.

Cheers

I do like kipnis... But like I said, the way my team is formed, it would not work out well for me... I need to be able to give myself the best chances to win at least one pitching category if I am ever going to win a week...

I didn't realize I was taking a cat away. Actually thought it would make your team better. Oh well.

It probably would in a points league... But I cant weaken a strength to strengthen a weakness if the weakness is not going to give me an advantage to win that category...

I just don't see Pineda or Kipnis giving me an edge as much as Chapman does...

Anyone who is SS heavy and has a trade itch to scratch, let's get together. But keep in mind. .I'm thinking small deal here. .nothing major. .end of the roster type swaps here

I guess that leaves out Escobar. Any interest in Odubel?

Eh, never mind Treff, I don't see anything that fits in that range.

Let me know if you want to go big.
