Additionally, Luke dropped Brandon Webb yesterday.

And I got Peavy from Mark along with Vlad Guerrero for Aaron Hill....and I sent Vlad off with Jeremy Hellickson for David Ortiz....and I traded LaPorta to Andrew along with 2 effing awesome pitchers in exchange for an effing terrible pitcher and Ian Kinsler.

At the end of the day, I have no idea whether or not all these trades have actually improved my team.

I thought about including all these other players and deals, but in the end I just kept it simple and stuck with Vernon Wells and JJ Hardy, who have been swapped back and forth all season long.

Also, I'm working on a break down of all the trades that have happened so far this season, including who "won". I honestly have no idea who has won most of Luke's trades, because the players he trades for stay on the team for such a short period of time.

Luke Murphy said...

Haha, well the end result of all those trades I've made, in short has been that Hellickson, Ichiro, Jeter, Hill, Delmon Young, Romero, and Farnsworth have left, while Kinsler, Hardy, Peralta, Ortiz, Kubel, and Ed Jackson have arrived. I suppose you could also credit me for getting a month of O-Cab, a few months of Vlad, a couple months of Peavy, and 1 week of Matt LaPorta. :)

Ugh, looking at Andrew's active stats for Romero and Farnsworth is depressing. Only positive sign for me is that Romero's K rate dropped dramatically after I sent him away. Maybe I hurt his feelings....but I do miss Kyle Farnsworth very much.

On the other hand, Kinsler has hit me 8 home runs, scored 37 runs, and stolen 12 bases at a position where I would otherwise have been starting Chone Figgins or Orlando Cabrera.
