my young team

March 17, 2005 at 03:28AM View BBCode

I feel my team is way too young at least way too many guys to train in the minors. I am hoping to pull off some trades and really surprised I have had no takers on any so far.

I would like to open all my minors except for Rankin Walker (SP) as trade prospects. I would really like to get him into the majors this year so if someone wants to work out a trade for one of my SP's then that is okay too.

I could also use a 1st and 2nd round pick in the next draft as I traded mine away to get some players (Rankin was one of them).

Im definately hoping to have a better season this year but to work on the future properly I think I need to trade some of my young minor league guys.

Oh, good luck to everyone this year (any time you aren't playing me.. lol).

trades

I guess I need to make myself clearer on this:

#1--Rankin Walker isn't up for trade. (period). I paid dearly (or I felt to get him and Im keeping him right now.

#2--Anyone on my Minor league roster is up for trade except for Catcher, Rocky.

#3--I will trade players on my Major League squad. I would like to move Ray Easely.

#4- I would be willing to package some players together for a 1st or 2nd round pick in next years draft ( I don't have a 1st or 2nd round pick then).

only offers I have gotten are for Rankin Walker. Please read the post again if you plan on sending me a trade offer for Rankin.

That's all.

Maybe you should have been clearer I didn't know Frank Turner was in your minors and i didn't know he was available for a (B+) relief pitcher.

Well Bruno, the weasels and I have been going back and forth over Adam Dunn since the WS. And I decided to take him for a Frank Turner. If you think I could have gotten more for Frank--then you should sit in my shoes. the only trade offers I have been given are for Rankin Walker--no other offers. Plus, I think I did good on getting a B+ RP to replace Richie.
And if you look at the History of Frank Turner. I traded this player

to get Frank and then traded Frank to get this player

I should had never make this trade between Mulholland and Turner. It was a newbie mistake. I was thinking that a C+ velocity wasn't so bad if it was add with a B+ control and I was wrong, unless you pitcher is young. Bob is too old to get very much higher with a lot of chance he will be a B/B+ but he just turn on B- and he's 26 and his endurance C-... Turner can get higher... I didn't know that it was possible to switch players postition so easily... Turner will be my first base... it's a gonna take 5 or 6 months to him to convert which is ok... I was upset against me all past season to had trading him for less that he worth but, at least, I won the World Series;)

Yeah, you can't complain about winning the WS. It is nice to see Adam Dunn return to PIT where he started.

Sorry if I sound critical, i'm in no position to give advice I've been rebuilding for 5 years now and my team is still bad. But one thing I have learned is everybody wants your youngsters and you can't get in that I'm tired of losing mode I wanna win now because that is when you make mistakes. Dunn will help you a little short term but Turner is going to be a Stud. Dunn is what he is and isn't going to get any better. Good luck Pitt i do sympathize cause I get trade offers almost daily for my good young pitchers and its nothing that will help me. Let me see what i can ofer you.

I'm not so sure Turner is going to be a stud. He'll be 26 this next off-season so his best years of improvements are beyond him. His righthander power rating is just a B and I doubt it will ever get better than a B+. He only batted .258 with 10 HR's. Also, the 135 games he played last season will probably be as high as he ever gets, so you've got to have a capable backup to spot him.

While I agree that Dunn isn't all that, I don't think it was that one-sided of a deal.
