The "Original" 24 TKL

Ok thank you.

Pieces I could move for a front end SP...

1 rd Pros. pick
2 rd Pros. pick
Henry Owens SP Prospect (#20 overall prospect according to MLB.com)

Adrian Gonzalez 1B
Matt Carpenter 3B (.375 OBP)
Alex Rios RF
Juan Francisco 1/3B (Big time power vs RHP)

Stash-a-Arm candidates:
Tony Cingrani
AJ Griffin
Travis Wood
Jhoulys Chacin

I would also consider moving Griffin, Wood, Chacin, Francisco, or Rios to move up in the draft.

The Turtle trades Eddie Butler (p) and my 5th round draft pick to Joker for Conor Gilispie

I know it's been busy, but I was just wondering whether the spreadsheet would be up to date soon? :):)

just to be clear, Peter already owns my 2015 first round prospect pick, so now he has his own first round prospect pick back again, as well as my first round prospect pick.

Actually - I may have been wrong when I said this. I think I was thinking of when Rant and I swapped 1st round prospect picks in 2014. I have no evidence that I sent my own original 2015 first round prospect pick to peterdouglas38. Peter was asking me about this, and now I'm not sure.

I'm searching the records of trades, but not finding anything relating to my own original 2015 first round prospect pick being traded away. So it looks like I still have it.

Comments? peter?

**Glen Perkins (RP)** - good card - lefty closer
Nate Jones (RP)
**Jake Odorizzi - currently a prospect but I could trade him for picks - pretty good card for 2014**
** Stauffer - an OK to fair card, but might get a "S/R", per ratings sheet - had 3 starts**
**Dietrich - a nice card versus RHP, would make a good DH vs. RHP**
**Neftali Feliz - if he's carded, it's a nice card - but he only had 32 innings pitched.**
**Ervin Santana**

My tentative projected keepers

Hitters - 12
Posey
Rivera
Davis
Vogt
Gennett
Pennington
Chisenhall
Owings
Gardner
Rasmus
Blanco
Betts (prospect promoted)

Pitchers - 8


Darvish

Kyle Gibson
Jake Odorizzi
J-P Crawford (ss)

PS When I say, "good card", it's strictly buyer beware, buy at your own risk - my comments are based on a very quick skim through the ratings download.

The Turtle trades Eddie Butler (p) and my 5th round draft pick to Joker for Conor Gilispie

Joker confirms trade

Also, as a new owner we are uprooting the team and moving to NYC, Citifield and our team name is now the Gashouse Goriallas. The marketing and PR dept swear we will kill it in profits with new jerseys.

Turtle, I don't think you have your 5th round FA pick to trade... you had traded that one to peterdouglas on December 17th as an amendment to an earlier trade.

This trade has been recorded in the spreadsheet except for the draft pick. Please renegotiate or explain. Thanks!
