So, a guy that hit 30 HRs a year for you and cost $4M was worth a 4th round pick to you. BUT, $2M isn't? Somehow, to you, $2M is worth more than $4M and 30 HRs?

the fuck do you get your valuations from? @NML

Travis got me shook, clearly.

Yeah I fleeced you on that one. Good bit of business for me. To be fair, if you had taken my initial offer of a comp pick based on WARS WON, you would've received a 2nd rounder.

And really this fleece shows you have the bad valuation calculator.

No, it shows I'm not a scumbag.

I do my best to put together trades that help everyone equally. I don't set out trying to trade to rip someone off, which is something I can't say for some of you'll. I bend of over backwards at times to make sure my trade partners don't leave thinking they got a raw deal.

I wouldn't expect the shitheads we see in the 4th round to fetch $2M if they were an IFA.

Has anyone paid over $2M in bonus to anyone in the 3rd round? I gave Eric de Krieze $1.5M a couple of drafts ago but I would have taken him in the 1st if not for the other guys I took earlier.

You need to dig deep and find this part of you again so I can pull off a six team trade.

The best draft pick experiment would be to look at the 11 picks over 3 years that I traded to NML as a sthick and see how they're doing. I'm actually curious but my guess is most of them aren't worth anything

You also sent Marvin Randull who's probably worth more than all the rest combined.

3/4 of my 1st round picks from this most recent draft signed for less than $2M a piece.

New offer: $2m for a 1st

I'd do that as long as it's one of the ones I traded you. Hell, for both of them back Id give you $4M, Hammond, and the CF you wAnted.

Why stop at six teams? Let's do an 18 team trade.

I'll throw in a 4th round pick. Just need to get someone to throw in $2M and route it my way.

Take a look at what I just offered.

The three team trade was pretty easy since it was pretty much me take on salary for Yankee to get a guy he wanted and Schauwn to get some prospects for his rebuild. Yankee shipped a bunch of lottery tickets my way he didn't have plans for so I did get something out of it. Schauwn and I had to do some negotiating to get it to work so I doubt another three way trade would go as smooth.

I won't be giving away any 1sts for a while. I'm past that stage in my simulation baseball career.

And yeah, multiple team trades are tricky. But they're cool when they pan out.

What happens when you have a guy getting his first post-arb extension who won't take less than seven years?

Piss off a player you consider a building block of your team to the point where now he only wants to go year by year. Karshev wanted a really reasonable 8 year deal. Too bad I couldn't sign him to it.

Yep. Villareal wants 9 years at a pretty decent salary, and keeps countering my 5 years with 7. :(

Douglass suffered some substantial ratings drops in the offseason, making him more loathsome than ever! Therefore, his Talismanic properties have grown even more powerful and he's got Kabul suffering their worst start imaginable and NDR sweeping Buffalo (even with rigger slayer on the roster). The rest of the WBL should just give up now that the Douglass Deckerades Dyanmic Duo is running this show.
