I have 3 1B eligible guys and 3 pitchers I like as much as oswalt.


Oswalt is too big of a question mark for me. Age, injury, retirement all come to mind when I think of him.

You aren't taking a chance, you're trying to get them before they take offfffff!

I like Pena, bring someone else besides Oswalt and we can talk a little more

and if thats the case, why did you take justin upton with the 2nd round pick



Upton has 1.5 years under his belt, had shown major improvement from year 1 to year 2, and is like 22 or 23 and on the verge of becoming a superstar.


Lind is 4 years older, and had his best power season at any level after just being able to land a full time job at a late blooming age.

cause for concern.

10th OF isnt bad anyway. HE just isnt top 5.

if he has another season like last, i'll be ready to talk about being top 5.


Upton's upside is wayyyy higher and is more of a sure thing

whoooaaaaaa, its not just me,

you are missing the point; everyone passed him up a few times and didn't draft him. If they considered him a top 5 OF, i think he would have went off the board earlier.

Point is, you are going to pass him along as a top 5 OF when no one else in this league thought he was worthy of that status. In other words, your trade value of him is wayy to high.


It has nothing to do with me taking Justin Upton. And it was hardly a reach.

Pena + Oswalt is really the best I can offer. Unless you like Latos or something.

If you can't see the difference between the two then no, you don't get it.

I'm not Gyno

i'm always weary of potential 1 year wonders.

Grineke has been touted as top pitching prospect for years. And if you watch him pitch, his stuff is almost equal to Lincecum. Not to mention Lincecum's velocity is down this spring.

But Strasburg> Latos, so swapping a young SP I value more wouldn't make much sense.

Blanks could put up similar power numbers as Pena in a few years IMO.

I'd be trading just to trade

Naw...you be trading for a win now situation.

Not one person inquired about getting him from me in TDBL, and I was absolutely shocked by this.

Your teams pretty good as is, not sure why you want to trade. You have that Strasburg void in your heart.

If you liked him that much you should've kept him over Bailey! Redtard!
