    Last week of the season:    "Hey I know you're in 2nd place and I'm in 4th, but how would you like to trade me your best player for my best player PLUS this badass pitcher?"  "That bada

    we need team names for the little plates that go on the side of the trophy.  and obviously we need a trophy with enough room for those 10 and more to come.

And why are you trying to trade for players you end up denigrating in your next post?

Man, that's crazy like a FOX

who was the guy you picked up yesterday?  Dansby?  hes at 8 now.  if he finishes top 10 i will shit in my hat.

that's fine, because this is roto, not H2H. it's been 5 weeks since i made the trade offer, and everything that dansby has done in that time counts for the long haul, unlike in H2H. i think Giolito has 3 total games played since then, while Dansby has been hitting .350, scoring runs, and stealing bases. for the majority of the last 5 weeks i've had 10-11 points in R, HR, RBI, and SB. what has giolito done for huge? nothing. at some point y'all gotta realize that we aren't playing H2H this year. 

@huge nothing wrong with the offer, i just don't have anywhere to play him. if one of my OF were to get hurt/sick we'd have a deal. just something to consider should that happen.

that's another thing about this crazy, fucked up, truncated, probably-not-gonna-finish-anyway season: we have doubled down on changing our league for 2020. not only is it roto this year, but it's a 60 game season with a very real possibility of never being completed. if you aren't at the top of the table and one of your good players gets sick, you may as well trade spam all of the top teams with offers for him, seeing as they can absorb the 2-3 week hit and you can't. it's an absolute sprint, as opposed to a 5 month marathon. plus you can be a little extra cavalier with your moves because of the time constraints (as evidenced by all of the high draft picks who are currently struggling and have been dropped).  shit is mad crazy yo. 

Team A: career Mendoza line hitter/non-everyday player + a pitcher who is never healthy

Team B: A perennial top 5-10 fantasy/MLB player and the Red Sox closer

both of these trades seem highly suspect.

How did IKF go undrafted? Dude is a roto machine. 

Story and Xander are on the block. Need outfield or sp. Make it happen. Renato is too I guess. 

outfield and pitching.  not dh and pitching.

He was on my short list but the Rangers blow so I decided to go elsewhere. But I agree.

arenado has homered in every game since that "fair" trade.

shocking.

He sucks.  Also that trade was proposed to me.  Arenado was batting like .180 at the time.  Darvish was/is pitching well.

dope counter offer. it's not like i have four of the best OF in fantasy baseball or anything.

I was offered that asshole for Acuna.

You do?

 If I were advertising that I was looking for OF help and a guy with Yelich, Merrifield, Rosario, and Luis Robert sent me an offer, i'd probably at least make him a counter. And Teoscar Hernandez ain't bad himself, so. 🤷🏼‍♂️ 

i'm in the market for a closer. whatever position you need, i've probably got a player or two (or five) that are pretty good, so holla at me.

Strasburg didn't last a full inning. Do I lose a start for that?

Ohtani didn’t last an out. So yes.

Bad thing about this playoff configuration. Judge gets a charlie horse and goes on the 10 day IL. Why not?

my 5th best OF went 3/5 with 2 HR and 4 RBI tonight. too bad nobody here needs any OF help. 🤷🏼‍♂️ 

Maybe you should propose another trade with a guy you picked up off the waiver wire
