[orionbraun]

I've got a few pieces available that I'd like to move before draft day.

For teams looking to add a possible keeper:

Jonathan Lucroy (ranked #5-6 C in most preseason ranks)
Mark Melancon (ranked #5 closer in consensus preseason ranks)

I'd love to keep these guys, but with Goldy and Gordon coming off GmL status I don't have the space.

Also, I'd be open to moving almost any of my GmL guys (except probably Wacha, Correa, Bryant), as well as any of my prospects. Griffin, Hedges, and Lorenzen can be had for very cheap.

Looking for the repeat this year, boys!

[coverlicious]

I'm open to moving pretty much everyone on my team, so please let me know if you're interested in anything.
But the players listed below are the most available.

Lucas Duda
Ryan Zimmerman
Brian Dozier
Adam Jones
Jacoby Ellsbury
Carlos Gonzalez
Kyle Hendricks
Jeff Samardzija

[Smokedawg]

I'll trade anyone.

Not looking for anything in particular just need a roster makeover.

[Coffee's 4 Closers Only]

Always open to trades. Will consider:

* Brandon Crawford (7th best SS ESPN fantasy ranking)
* 3 closers:
Huston Street
Shawn Tolleson (72.1 IP, 6 W, 35 SV, 76K, 2.99, 1.15, competitive team)
Arodys Vizcaíno (33.2, 3W, 9W, 37 SV, 1.60 1.19)

*Deep prospect roster, many nearly ready.

[fondybadger]

Looking to trade for a top 50ish SP, maybe a power heavy 1B, gml catcher, and a burner. Have power hitting OFers, lots of infield positional flexibility, some young impact players that I'd all be willing to move, and a ton of .290, 25, 75, 90, 10 type of guys. Otherwise, if you're asking for a Stanton type player I'd be looking for a similar player back. If you're looking to acquire a Buxton I want a top prospect back, etc. Looking more for roster fit that building/buying if that makes sense.

[fondybadger]

As aside, I'm working upwards of 70 hours a week so I won't be sending out much in terms of offers. If I don't get back to you right away keep bugging me. I'm also more receptive to here's what I'm thinking of offering than what do you want for such and such (based on time I wouldn't be able to really look).

[Yanks27Sox9]

update:

- still might look at dealing Greinke, but it would need to be a legit return.
- if you want a closer to cheaply keep, both KRod and Osuna are available.
- will deal one of Cano/Carpenter, your choice.
- Gardner/Granderson can also be had dirt cheap as an 8th keeper.

[fondybadger]

Just got my team put together in an excel sheet to see where I stand.

Looking at my roster I'm actively shopping Matt Holiday, Nelson Cruz, Matt Kemp, Ian Kinsler, David Wright, Victor Martinez (damn my team got old quick), and maybe some of my younger gml pitching Aaron Nola, Kevin Gausman, Henry Owens, Tony Cingrani, and Matt Moore in the right deals (otherwise that's my 2016 pitching staff!). Not against moving Votto, Baez, Eaton, Myers, etc in right deals either.

Need to sell off some of my older guys for a chance to compete in the future. Not against moving draft picks this year for future stuff either. Probably can take a chance on younger upside 8th guy type of keepers too. Let me know if you think anything could work.

[Yanks27Sox9]

Know it's not much...but I've still got KRod and Granderson left available, dirt cheap, if anyone's interested. (Osuna too, but that closer job is a coin flip.)

[trueblue]

Still have some flame throwing blue chip prospects on the block:

Robert Stephenson - BP #30
Sean Newcomb - BP #32
Jon Gray - BP #33
Carson Fulmer - MLB #38
Jameson Taillon - BP #51

Also - Miller(gml0), Bauer(gml2), Teheran(gml1)


Looking for GMLs and other prospects. Email me if interested!

Last thing from me...

I've got an extra 3rd Rd Major if anyone would like to flip a decent prospect for a pick on the early side of the major league draft.

[grind4mine]

Getting back into the baseball swing of things and will be replying (later tonight) to a few emails I've received this month regarding trade talk.

[e-mail]

[trueblue]

After the initial trade whirlwind, here are my available guys:

-Any Top 30 ranked minors arm in my system
-Hanley (buy low)
-Gerardo Parra (Coors full time gig should catapult production)
-Drew Storen (still not announced but writing is on the wall. Osuna should be stretched to maximize value and Storen plays up when closing)

Parra and Storen can be had cheap or as a minor component to a larger deal.

[Yanks27Sox9]

still have KRod available, who'll get all the save opportunities in Detroit...but i've also got some early MLB picks stockpiled, and i'm looking to deal one of them for sure.

[Smokedawg]

Looking to move one of Adam jones, Hunter pence, Albert pujols or david Ortiz for varyingly appropriate levels of gml (or possibly near ready prospect) pitching...

[orionbraun]

Gotten a few hits on Melancon, wanted to post one more time before pulling the trigger with anyone. Melancon and Lucroy both still available.

[Yanks27Sox9]

open offer to anyone with an upcoming pick in the minor league draft who wants it...


Marcos Molina, P - NYM + my 4th Rd Major
for
your 5th Rd Major + your upcoming minor league pick


equal swap of prospects, and you move up a round in the major league draft. there's a flyer i wanna take.

[orionbraun]

So no one wants Jonathan Lucroy, huh? A top ~90 player in many circles, he is a prime bounce-back candidate. A few experts have him in their top 70 overall. Someone is going to end up burning a late first or second round pick on him if no one takes him off my hands, but you can have him for a 5th round MLB pick right now. I've seen a few guys posted as keepers already that don't have as much fantasy value as Lucroy. He is likely to be traded in 2016, as well, and could find himself in a much better lineup midway through 2016.

Here's Bret Sayre's quick write up after ranking him #5 in catcher dynasty ranks:
So yeah, I guess this is my way of saying that I’m buying the Lucroy bounce-back for 2016. He doesn’t have the age or the mileage to make me concerned that it’s a straight line down from here—and he’s still hit .291 with 50 homers over the last four season (and is primed to occupy an important lineup spot in Milwaukee again).

From The Dynasty Guru, ranking him #3 in their catcher dynasty ranks:
A broken foot and a concussion limited Lucroy to only 103 games in 2015, but he is only one year removed from his career-best 2014 season, where he hit .301/.373/.465 and finished fourth in MVP voting. While repeating 2014 is probably too much to ask for, another year of above-average contribution is not out of hand if he remains injury-free in 2016. Even after a down year in 2015, hitting for a .264 average with seven home runs in 103 games, he still ranks as one of the best catching commodities. He could be a prime trade target this offseason if the owner of him in your league is selling low this winter.

[Smokedawg]

Ive also still got Adam Jones, Hunter Pence, Albert Pujols and David Ortiz available...

[fondybadger]

I'm still looking to buy a pitcher

[Yanks27Sox9]

KRod and Granderson are still available too. That said, I'll still look at moving Greinke if anyone's looking to add an ace.

[fondybadger]

Current pick might be available for the right price. Not sure what that would be, but something like a 2017 1st + something this year or 2016 2nd + something this year.
