I do need to report a trade: Cameron Maybin/Edwin Jackson for Kevin Millwood (Pet)
Ok, after several attempts to contact people with limited response I'll just post this out for everyone to see and we'll see what we come up with.
My needs: 2b, (CF, SS & 3b upgrades; I have Pierre, Renteria and Randa), relief pitching (lhp, closers also desired)
What I have available: Picks (all), prospects (to include guys like Andrew Miller, Jay Bruce, Mike Pelfrey, Scott Elbert, Troy Patton and basically anyone else in my minors)
Let me explain something up front. I want full-time players who play the position everyday. I'm not going to give up quality prospects for some gap filler of a player (I can get these in the C). If you want quality young guys (minors) I don't have a problem giving them up for quality in return and I would only expect the same from you.
I can also package several of them together with some picks.
I could also package prospects with Pierre, Renteria or Randa to upgrade at those positions.
As I've told others in the league my life is going to get really busy here in the near future as my TDYs and deployments will become frequent and for long durations. So I'm not sure how long I'm gonna be in the league so prospects at this point don't really matter to me. Doesn't mean I'm gonna give them away either though, b/c if that were the case I'd just give them to my dad.
