With the trade deadline looking, I still have pieces to sell. Check my trade block. Dylan Moore is gone, but everyone else is still available! As Jim found out, come big if you want Tucker or Devers...

As Jim found out, come big if you want Tucker or Devers... Full stop. I didn't even seriously inquire about Tucker because I knew the ask would be huge. I more focused on Devers, because I thought that would at least be realistic. You told me what the return would need to be for Tucker, and I said, I respect that, so let's focus on Devers. You then said the ask would be the same for him. That's 15 minutes of my life I'm not going to get back. I don't even try to talk trade much in this league anymore. ----- I just came to the Week 18 thread to say how bummed I was that my team didn't sim better with the changes I made. Every GM can say this, but I would've liked to have seen how my team simmed in Diamond Mind this year. Since we were all looking at ZiPS all offseason, I figured my Pirates would be a step down from what I had last year in the NLCS, but still an above .500 team that could've won the NL Central. Once I saw how a lot of my players' ratings nosedived when OOTP came out, I knew it would be a challenge. I didn't think it would be this bad though. JIm

JIm Believe me, I wasn't knocking you for your response (which wasn't really a response, so before anyone thinks that Jim was getting feisty with me... he wasn't). And yeah, Tucker is going to be more expensive because he has two more years left, but Devers with his one extra year also isn't cheap, and I just didn't see anyone on your roster that I really like for Devers or Tucker besides Williams. Speaking of never getting 15 minutes back, the 15 minutes I spent researching your entire reserve roster is time I won't get back, either.

You son of a bitch.
This is what happens when you draft in the #25-30 spot year after year. We can’t all draft Top-5 like the Chicago Cubs every season!

PS My reserve is at least solid now. Has it been a white hot dumpster fire when I stopped hitting on Grindrs? Yes. Yes it has. But I think it’s at least got some upside now.

Pirates make the following roster moves to stay legal:
1. Add DH Giancarlo Stanton to active. 2. Send C Sam Huff to reserve. 3. Waive V INF Edmundo Sosa to keep the total roster size at 60.
Thanks Travis!
