Trading Soriano
abuck1220 replied to ctcf's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
that is atrocious. -
man, ryan sure does look stupid for convincing the cubs to turn down that very real offer of mark trumbo for carlos marmol. THANKS A LOT JERK.
-
absolutely he should. this is like the 100th time we've had this debate this year. clearly the way we're handling it is not enough of a deterrent.
-
yes. though i don't think i've ever had that problem. the only time it would come up would be if you had like 5 guys all starting on sunday or something weird.
-
well, yeah, that's the other solution if we for some inexplicable reason can't set the league up to disallow illegal rosters.
-
and for fucks sake PLEASE set up this stupid [expletive] league so it simply doesn't allow you to have 26 guys or whatever on your roster. i've never seen a league that allows you have an illegal roster like this. [expletive] absurd.
-
I know we don't enforce rules or really have a commissioner and this league is pretty much a lawless mad max style wasteland, but I'm gonna have to say chuck should not be able to use either of the SPs he had on his 4 man bench for the first half of the week. obviously the correct enforcement of the rule is that he gets no points for the days he was illegal but we've abandoned that rule for whatever reason. i don't think disallowing the use of the pitchers on his overflowing bench is particularly harsh. especially since...well lets just say his isnt his first offense.
-
i don't really get how they can "tinker" with it. eligible or not eligible based on the very clear guidelines. the end.
-
i don't know if it's cbs just sucking or us tinkering this [expletive] league to death, but whatever it is, this league is kind of a mess.
-
aaaaand chuck's roster is illegal again.
-
i wouldn't say you're "screwed," i'd say you somehow got away with playing lawrie at 2b for half the season when he wasn't eligible there. why are we paying cbs money for this shitty league again?
-
definitely
-
LOTS OF VARIABLES TO CONSIDER. i guess that's why he said the winner of the trade is TBD.* *like every other trade made in baseball history
-
what if sanchez wins world series mvp, infante hits 5 hr in the world series and turner gets killed by a hurricane in florida? who wins the trade in that scenario?
-
oh really
-
do you like any others sports or anything?
-
I'M SEEIN' A WHOLE [expletive] LOAD OF POINTS FROM EDINSON VOLQUEZ HOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLA.
-
the guy who has no spot to play because of erick aybar and howie kendrick is going to replace castro.
-
How stupid is a 3 day week.
-
Same goes for me and capuano. Wish I would have known he was gonna get a start...
-
Wish I got to face the team that uses 2 starts per week in a week where the limit is 7 instead of 3.
-
is this really going to be a 3 day week? awful.
-
And pitchers careers are reborn. If I'm a once good pitcher or pitching prospect *Chris Volstad* who's hit the skids, I'm begging the Padres to give me a 1 year deal or for my team to trade me to them in hopes of some sucker giving me a 3 year deal the following. is the GM that gives chris volstad a 3 yr deal the same guy that calls to trade for castro and ends up taking reed johnson?
-
I'm going to ignore the mockery and just say that a big reason why they don't see Soriano as likely to be traded is due to the contract. GET RIGHT OUT OF TOWN
-
oh great now you're weighing in.
