no picks? i dont get that trade at all for you

Getting Adam Jones I imagine. No harm in cutting bait with fringe keepers to land a stud (if you consider Jones a stud).

gulp
thats a terrible trade. At least get some picks for some of those keeper worthy guys

Not keeping Beltran or Kuroda. Choo is 31 and we only keep 8. Would have liked to pawn off each for a pick, but got rejected by everyone I proposed a deal to. I wanted to send that package to Lou but he's attached to Hosmer and I don't blame him.
Tried to sell Beltran for a 2nd - rejected
Tried to sell Kuroda for a 2nd or 3rd - rejected
Didn't try to sell Choo but no one made an offer either. Would have sold him for a second also.
All prices I thought was reasonable to no avail. No sense if keeping them all to the deadline and getting no upgrade. Suddenly my keeper set for next year looks a lot better.
Andrus, Lincecum, Dempster, Montero, Konerko, and even Cueto are still available.

Me either
He was adamant about getting high picks for both Beltran and Kuroda and gave them up for a slight, slight upgrade.

Who with picks would have bought?
Gyno - doesn't have picks to meet what I want
Rondo - doesn't need to buy anything
Lou - doesn't want to pay the asking price nor give up the player I covet
VKC - same; already sold his 1 and 4 and doesn't have an upgrade he's willing to give up
EARL - only wanted Balfour that I sold to gyno
cwill - selling
Besides Chat, who's going to buy my players?
Would I have liked some picks in return, definitely. But no one is willing to pay.

Quite frankly, yea. Got a little younger and added some more power.

It's a frenzy at the deadline. All those teams will be buying then or they wont win.
I dont really have a problem with the trade though. I wouldnt want to keep Choo or Beltran. But you def couldve gotten more. I didnt even know they were OTB

I just started waxing my willy at this 4th party over the Hosmer HR.

The two guys most willing to deal picks already dealt them all. I wish you or Jew T still had picks but you guys bought early. I honestly don't feel ripped off and trust me, I do know I didn't get optimal value. I did what I intended to do... keep the majority of my draft picks and upgrade my keeper set(Butler/Jones) for next season. It certainly looks better than the team I took over.

I love when both of your catchers are given the day off. Start the NL catcher bc of a higher probability of PHing, AL catcher PHs and gets a bases clearing double.
