Sometime I need to make a list of all of the top prospects that I've traded away. It would be a pretty impressive list even though most of the prospects have fizzled. The only prospects that made it to the majors were Alonso, JWeeks and Parker and I've traded the last two already.

Is there a backdoor access to the BYTO archives? About a year ago I had compiled a list of all of my trades and it would be nice to look back in hindsight. I think the only one that looks bad is Dan Haren for Jordan Zimmerman (before he came back from TJ), Mejia (before he had TJ), Singleton and Dwyer. And Haren carried me to 2nd place that year.

you can view old trades on the CBS site. just go to transactions > trades and then sort by year (i think)

off the top of my head i've traded (or dropped!) the following:

logan morrison
drew stubbs
wilin rosario (dropped lol)
jake marisnick (dropped lol)
gio gonzalez (not sure if he was still in minors in year 1)
travis d'arnaud
jordan lyles
Austin Hedges
tyler anderson
tony cingrani
gary sanchez
christian bethancourt
matt davidson


holy ****-- im so desperate for a young catcher and i just realized now that ive trades away Rosario, D'Arnaud, Sanchez, Bethancourt and Hedges lolol

You can't sort previous years trades (at least I can't). It just shows the whole transaction log for the year.

At a minimum I've traded the following but there are probably a dozen other fringe top 100 prospects
JMontero
Myers
Mesoraco
Drabek
Hicks
Sano
Skaggs
Sanchez
Odorizzi
Middlebrooks
Campos
Arcia
Mejia
Singleton

On trading Timmy, I'm not selling low on him, and I'm not actively looking to deal him. I don't expect to get what I traded for him, but I'm going to need a rich deal if I'm going to move him. Make me quality (not quantity) offers and maybe we can work something out.

I just made you an offer for Lincecum.

Make me a counter offer?

How about a deal centered around Pineda?

I dropped Carlos Martinez for the 5 player draft when he was unknown. I thought I could pick him up again later but one person knew who he was.

I just pulled off my 3rd big move in the last 6 months to complete the destruction of my farm system. I still have a few prospects but it's getting thin compared to usual.

i think all of those deals were good in a vacuum and excellent for someone in win-now mode. you didn't overpay or anything imo. hopefully one of us can win this year; has anyone been more unlucky in this league than the 2 of us?


also, how do you view sale's value relative to CC? i would deal CC for sale + [one of maybe 6-7 guys on your roster]

Sale > CC - even with injury concerns 23 > 32

I actually am happy with all of the deals also. I gave up some good prospects but I got back some well above average currently good players that aren't old. I remember the Votto trade from 3 yrs ago. I'm still waiting for JMontero and Drabek to become good players. Perhaps I traded away a stud but whatever. I've also moved enough guys that I won't have any tough cuts.

I got
Sale
Weeks - I never thought I would have owned him
Pablo
Harvey

I gave up 4 stud prospects
Sano
Skaggs
Myers
Bogaerts

and some good but not great prospects
Arcia - he could be better than all of the above though
Heredia
Ventura
Odor
Alonso
Erlin
hendricks
