JP96...FBL trade

[somerfrost]

Check out the accusations from Papa on the ESPN board and at the league site...this is why I'm sometimes reluctant to make trades...you have no idea how often I hear from him that this manager or that manager is cheating...this time he accuses me of same. I knew this was coming but just wanted to point out to you some of the crap I deal with in every league he's part of...I will NOT reverse the trade, he can pound sand!

Papa cheats in my opinion so let him pound sand Somer!

Somer,

He's just pissed because we couldn't reach a deal for Arod a couple of weeks ago. He wanted to make a very oneside trade and wouldn't budge. He want Arod and Webb for Soriano and then gave me a line of BS about how that is agood deal for me. lol He's a freak'n donkey.

Time will tell how "good" this trade is for you or I. All I know is that i feel like i improved at 2 positions, so let them complain. The Fantasy leagues are much more entertaining when deals can be reached. I'm not done offering deals so.........................

I agree! I will delete his posts if he keeps making accusations and if necessary, I'll lock his team and really give him something to cry about! This happens in every league he's in...the first year I played fantasy sports, I was in a football league and he was commish...SCC and I agreed to a trade but SCC was out of town and had "accepted" a deal for the same player from Papa. Chris told me to just tell Papa to void that deal but when I did Papa refused and said since Chris wasn't around, he was taking the player...the next week, the player papa got went on the DL...lol! I did some checking here...Papa himself admits to offering you Pierre and Soriano for Webb and A-Rod. Wells and Lidge are clearly the better deal!! Wells is out-performing Soriano in 7-10 catagories, Pierre is a one catagory player and his 24 steals wouldn't really help you with your speed while his .243 average, 11 rbi's, and 0 dingers would make it hard to start him. Lidge had a horrible start and ballooned to a 6.94 era but since then he's lowered to 4.67 and has 19 saves and 50k's in 34.2 innings. He has converted his last 8 saves, last blown save was May 5th. At the start of the season most "experts" ranked him second behind the Yankee closer coming off his 42 save/2.29 era last season! Clearly this is a vastly better deal yet Papa cries...

Jp96,
Who else are you thinking of moving? I love the kid you have at SS and I really need speed but I'm locked in at SS.

If you need speed, then i may consider something for my 2B, Figgins. He has speed. at this point i don't see me dealing Reyes. He's good in too many catagories for me to deal right now and still has up side.
