yeah, I know legitimate #1 or #2 SP's are a dime-a-dozen and i'll have no luck trading for one, but its worth a shot. i didn't land anyone in free agency, and my hitting is too good to continually let it go to waste because i have no pitching...
what i'm looking for:
Age and cost aren't a big concern, but obviously the young and cheaper, the better. i'm looking for anyone who is legitimately considered a #1 or #2 starter, so i'm not really looking for anybody's 8-8-8 talent cast-offs.
what i'm willing to give up:
2.5 overall 3B Hank Blalock -- 7-10-8-7-5 overall, 8-9-10-7-5 talent.
5.0 prospect SP Neil Ramirez -- 10-7-8 talent
5.0 prospect SP Blake Beavan -- 9-9-7 talent
4.5 prospect SP Jacoby Thompson -- 8-9-7 talent
4.0 prospect CF Julio Borbon -- 8-7-4-6-7 talent, 8-9-9 base running, 10 range in CF and LF
obviously, i wouldn't move every piece up there... but depending on the quality SP i was getting in return, it'd likely be a package of Blalock, one of the SP prospects, and Borbon.
probably a futile effort, because i know people value their pitching. but if you've got some interest, PM me.
