Fake Teams Do I make this deal

I have been Offered Roy Halladay for Yu Darvish, and Randell Delgado. This is a Dynasty league and I am built to win now, and later. Roy is getting old, and Yu would have a ML contract, and when he isn;t starting I could hide him in my minors. Am I crazy to pass up on Halladay?

This is a points based league, Halladay has a 1 year contract and I would have to use 1 of my 3 resign contracts on him.

Fake Teams Did I make the right move


I was offered Zach Britton for Aaron Hicks.  I am set in the OF with Bautista, Braun, BJ Upton, Morse, Berkman.

Also in farm I have Oswaldo Arcia, Pimentel, Guillermo, and Sano Who I see as an OF one day)

 

I could use Britton as he is MLB producing now, but is he still thought of as an elite Talent?  Hicks has tools, but has never shown production.  Britton is in the AL East, and everyone seems down on him.  So question is should I have Declined the deal, or did I do good?

Fake Teams I need of Future Relief Pitcher help

I took over a team in a 20 team Keeper league, deep farm system with 3 RP's spots, and RP worth a lot, I'm trying to build up the farm but not much left out there, I want to fill the rest up with potential long term Closer options, I just picked up Jose Ceda for example, as I like his upside as one day maybe being a closer option, anyone know of others in the minors with same upside, or future outlook.

Thnaks,

Minor League Ball Possible Trade Smoak for Specs

Trade offered to me, Carlos Martinez, Martin Perez for Justin Smoak.  I already have Fielder at 1B, and Hosmer at UT for at least the next 3 years.  I'm leaning on taking the deal, thoughts? Keeper league, my staff is good, but can always use upside Farm hands.

Minor League Ball Jax's Mariners Shadow Draft Cont.

2011 Round Pick Player I drafted Pos. 
1 1st 2 Anthony Rendon 3B - Who I had hoped the M's would pick, back-up Plan was Bauer, or Bundy. But just as when they passed on Lincecum, they take the safe college (Low Upside) pitcher.  Sure makes me want to find a new team :-(.  Rendon is worth the gamble, has upside and the offense the M's so need in there farm.

2 2nd 62 - Daniel Norris SP - Missed out on Bell by 1 pick :-(.  Take a chance on an upside pitcher here. 

3 3rd 92 - Matt Purke SP - Take a Chance this late for sure.

4 3rd-S 121 -  Nick Delmonico, C-1B - Future Power hitter ( Again need the Bats)
5 4th 123 - Derek Fisher OF - Another Bat
6 5th 153 - Tyler Marlette C - Same thinking as the M's here, might cost a Pretty Penny though
7 6th 186 - Dillon Maples SP - HS arm, looking upside here

 

After Thoughts, Again went heavy hitting, I'm sure not all of these guys will sign, but go big or go home is how I see it.  I like my Mix, some college SP's, and some HS upside Arms.  LEts hope more then 2 sign like last season.

Minor League Ball 2nd pick in Dynasty League


After of course Harper who is the guy?  Draft is soon and am torn between the Pitcher or Hitter, don't want to waste the #2 pick on the next Tim Beckham. Any help is appreciated.  If other please post, as of course most talent from last years draft was drafted last year in our rookie draft.  Peniada is available, as is Profar, and everyone from this years draft.

Machado, Jameson Taillon, or Franklin, other?

Thanks,

Jax

Minor League Ball Prospects with Highest Celings?

Any names of players with maybe low grades now, but have huge ceilings?  Young international players, or high upside athletes drafted later rounds that have the tools, just need refinement. Sano from the Twins, maybe De Leon from the Yanks, any others, Dixon with the A's.  WAGNER MATEO, CF, GARY SANCHEZ, C, GUILLERMO PIMENTEL, CF, JOSE VINICIO, SS In the Process of my minor league draft and looking to take some chances on high risk high reward type guys late in my draft.  Last season did good with Tehean Thanks for any help.

Minor League Ball Need Help top 50 Specs

My Rookie Draft is this weekend, but no one has an updated full top 50 Spec List, and i need help on who I should be targeting. I have copied and sorted all the top 20's that have been posted so far, but have no clue on the other teams.  Any help would be appreciated, even players not within the top 50, but have maybe huge ceilings, that I could take chances on.

Thanks,

Jax
