My trades in 2009 didn't produce the talent (Brandon Wood anybody) this year as expected. I dropped a few of them, abandoned others via trade, and even traded some for other players that I dropped (Travis Buck). All in all, I have upgraded my prospects and traded many of them along with draft picks to bring up Billy Butler, Ryan Zimmerman, Brett Gardner, Travis Snider, Johnny Cueto, and Brett Cecil.
-
Best trade, Renfroe for an 8th round draft pick. Those picks probably wont make my roster and Renfroe is more of a hit than an 8th rounder for me.
-
Worst trade - Joey Votto for Grady Sizemore. Best trade - Grady Sizemore for Josh Hamilton. I have had a few other doozies - both good and bad. I feel my team is better than what I started with.
-
The Sizemore-Hamilton trade was the primary motivator for me to create this thread.

I've given away a lot of talent, and have received probably less in return, judging from my overall in/outs. I'm pretty happy with my team, however. I guess if there was one trade I thought turned out bad for me, it would have been the Headley/Sanchez deal to Dan. Really underestimated how Sanchez would do this year, and got a bit too scared with Logan Morrison in his shadow.

I messed around with Jayson Werth and ended up with Ibanez which didn't work out. I made several moves with the Phillies, Royals, Pirates, Orioles, Indians, Cubs, and a couple other squads. Landing Greinke was perhaps my biggest accomplishment. Trading away the liabilities of Torii Hunter, Mark Buerhle, Jon Lackey, and Chipper Jones may have been a better accomplishment.
-
Looking back at my recent Cueto trade invokes some yak from my end, but that's only temporary until Freese quits drinking :beer:. Other than that, I shed a lot of contracts and brought in better talent The acquisition of Swisher was a great one. I probably should have held on to Hafner instead of dropping him.
-
My Sizemore/Hamilton deal looks very bad in retrospect, but keep in mind that I most likely would have had to let Hamilton go at the end of the year due to his future $22.5m salary. Sizemore is signed through 2012 at a modest salary of $4m.
-
Good trades include Lincy/Hill for Cano/Fister. I also like the JJ deal with the Fish and getting Liriano at a discount from the Twinkies.
Bad trades are whatever I traded for ARAM. He is trying prove his value over the 2nd half.
-
Worst trade Bautista for a 3rd round pick. Best trade would have to be getting rid of Wells' mammooth contract and Hill who has been a major flop. Why? Because it gave me the flexibility to restructure the whole team and bring on faces like Uggla, Phillips and Zobrist. I would also say my worst FA acquisition Casey Kotchman and my best FA acquisition has been Jon Jay, didn´t expect him in the majors for a while, but he has been awesome so far.
