I just want some unbiased views on this b/c I feel like I'm going crazy. In a Y! league, I have a deep team and am currently leading. I posted that I'd be willing to trade an OF or two for an upgrade elsewhere, esp SS. My roster is below, as you can see - I have a ton of OF.

 

Guy offers me O Cabrera for Kemp. He also has Carlos Guillen at SS, a bad OF, and a bunch of RP. I respond with:

 

Kemp and Snell for Guillen and BJ Ryan (he has 5 total RP) - knew he wouldn't accept, but figured he'd either ask for a better OF, a better SP, or both. He calls me several names I can't post here. Then he sends me an offer and cancels it right away, to show me what a "fair" offer looks like:

 

Guillen, BJ Ryan, K Suzuki for Hamels and Soto.

 

Again, my team is below. I think he's hung up on the fact that I lost Tulo, but replacing him wasn't as important as turning an OF into an upgrade elsewhere (SS, 1B, RP jump to mind). I think his counter offer is insane and my offer was reasonable, if in my favor (as many offers are - if I thought it hurt my team, I wouldn't offer it).

 

Am I going nuts?

I think your trade is a bit lopsided, but not by much, on the other hand, his is ridiculous.

 

Phew. I'm not going insane. I thought the 3 hours of sleep from last night was making me lose it.
