I just offered Howie Kendrick to the Blue Jays as a joke for Roy Halliday. AND THEY IMMEDIATLY ACCEPTED. Im raging though. This leaves me in a dilemma because my rotation already looks like: 1.) Becket 2.) Sabathia 3.) Webb 4.) Cain 5.) Sheets 6.) Weaver I don't know if I should put Roy as my 7th starter, which Im not afraid of doing, but still... that trade was omfg. It had no stars, too. I don't want to mess with my rotation anymore than adding a new starter though, since well, everyone has an era under 2.5 and 200+ SO |

I now love Roy... I pitched him six times (yes six) in the World Series. I ended up winning! MY FIRST WORLD SERIES VICTORY! YES! |

roy boy is absolutely insane, and he could easily be a HoFer. i say that you could trade sheets or weaver (is it jered or jeff?) to clear salary for doc, and you'll also have your 6-man rotation (which I also use extremely efficiently) |

And nah, Sheets is extremely cheap and efficent. I got him for 3600, believe it or not. Three years. |

trade jered, he's young enough for teams and he has something like a 2500 salary (you can clear some other guys too. I actually purposely made a bad trade (sorta) to clear about 7000 in salary (adrian gonzalez + scrubs for casey kotchman + random pitcher) |

I have the points to keep over 6 Roy's, so that's not a problem. I'm just concerned what to do with my rotation. I was thinking moving Roy to the ace spot and then having my rotation look like this: 1.) Roy 2.) CC 3.) Becket 4.) Cain 5.) Sheets 6.) Webb Then Weaver goes to Swing Man which would move Fausto down to Long Reliever along with Ervin |

Having 3 swingmen isn't a bad idea. |

Then make one of them the closer. Or trade him for Chase Utley or something. |

Post subject: | Re: OMFG! |
of course you mention a phillie to trade for... but how about a true superstar, like ichiro or tex? |

Post subject: | Re: OMFG! |
Well, since you traded Howie Kendrick, you probably want a second baseman to replace him... but you get the idea. Trade the worst starter for a superstar to fill one of your holes. And Ichiro has a 16000 salary and is fairly old. However, he is a phenomenal defensive player. |

personally, i'd rather have brian roberts (in the game, not in real life) over utley. |

Post subject: | Re: OMFG! |
Meh, it's all DrK's opinion. I prefer Utley since he is the best hitting second baseman available, but his arm strength is fairly horrendous and his fielding is average. Then again, a second baseman doesn't really need a strong arm... besides, Utley is almost as fast as Roberts and has (I'll need to check this) Stealing 4. |

Thanks for the suggestions but I have everything covered. Howie wasn't a starter and was only hitting .183 with five homeruns and twenty seven RBIs at the trade deadline. |
