What the hell.

I'll need two things: 1) a league-average (minimum) replacement for him this year, and 2) a reason to trade a guy who SHOULD win several Cy Youngs in this league, and who is contracted through 2015 at salaries well below market-value.

I'll give you Porcello for him.

1) Ricky Nolasco + Kyle Drabek for King Felix + Teahen

2) Because it's a great deal and I'm awesome for offering it.

Just for fun.....

I was going to offer Glander Mark Reynolds and Scott Baker for Felix Hernandez and O'Day. However, I was talking to someone and they seemed to think that was a cruddy offer.

Any other opinions? I thought it was pretty darn good but I didn't send it based on that feedback. Just curious to hear other thoughts.

I'm not a big Mark Reynolds fan at all, so I wouldn't do that, regardless of whether it's fair.

My negative assessment of Tom's trade idea had nothing to do with fairness. It was based on Reynold's bad inning vs the Sea Cats. Legendary.

He's damaged goods and I'm glad the Ridgeback juggernaut is keeping him.

Not this time. Reynolds is now a basket case after making 3 errors in an inning with 2 outs, with a home run to follow.
This is going to cause him to press more and overthink at the plate, exacerbating the situation.

Allentown is too good this year, I'm just glad to see any setback that gets them within our striking range.
They're so good vs lefties I think they've broken the game in fact.

Nothing against the Allentown organization, I'm just calling for reason here.

And I want to give Tom a chance to throw this post in my face if his 3bman hits 50 home runs.

Reynolds' rock hands are being exaggerated by the BDBL press. He made two errors in one inning...leading up to the HR, and they weren't both made with two outs. And Allentown ended up winning the game.
