Title: Buyers & Sellers
Post by: Colby on May 12, 2011, 03:49:43 PM
We can continue to update this as we get closer to the trade deadline.  The sellers are the teams with very little chance this year.  Such teams can also be buyers to facilitate cap freedom for contending teams...

NL: Mets, Cubs, Nationals, Padres
AL: Orioles, Mariners, Angels

ON THE FENCE: Marlins, Giants, Reds

Sorry Colb, I'm not selling anything. I haven't had a healthy team since the word go. Things are about to change over the next two weeks.

The mets are looking to sell. At the same time if they receive a perk they will be willing to take on a contract or so.

I think we have a lot of parity and a lot of teams in the hunt including the Reds, Marlins, and Giants.  This will drive up prices in the trade market.  As of now, teams willing to deal much of their farm or teams with plenty of cap space will do best at the deadline.  Who would those teams be?

The Orioles are definately sellers at this point even though I already sold off most of my MLB talent.  I debated on selling now or waiting for the trade deadline but wanted to move the big contracts.  Good think I did or I may have not gotten anything for Kendrys Morales now that he is out for the year.

Colby, do we tell you whether we want to be a buyer or seller, or do you just determine that on your own?

It was my determination.  Jake, you could easily be one of the selling teams that looks to buy big-market salary dumps or poor team's larger contracts on the cheap.

More than likely a buyer. Depends on whether I get my whole team healthy or not

I guess in some managers eyes I would be a seller but I don't think ppl who are in my position have their best 4 players all 25 or under. It will take a "good" offer to get (McCann, King Felix, Cargo, or Pineda). I can't see any other team with that strong of young "proven" players. I also have a top 5 minor league roster. So y sell for someone old when I can wait 1 or two yrs and contend/potentially win? Just my thought on it.

McCann is 27 and CarGo is almost 26...

Jason Heyward (21), Hank Conger (22), Jaime Garcia (24), & Tommy Hanson (24).

Another former FGM Pirate :PIT:.  My team is a buyer for the first time in 20 years.  No joke about the 20 year part either.

After another ho-hum week, the Rays are headed towards being SELLERS this year...AGAIN.  Looking to move an OF or two and eventually HanRam, although I will NOT be selling low on him and thus, will probably be waiting for his numbers to rebound to their norm before I move him.

In light of Buster Posey's broken stick last night, the Rays are officially sellers.  We are looking to move a couple of OF and are open to anything at this point...looking to regroup for next year.  :beer:
