D2D trash talk and draft comments thread

I did a trade earlier this year and I think I needed to drop someone. I thought Marco Luciano was a prospect. My roster says 30, but I am missing Jimmy Herget from my roster. I can either forfeit my supp pick (Payamps) or drop Christian Hernandez from my roster. I prefer to drop Hernandez, but will let the commish decide.

I'll drop Hernandez. thanks for catching it. just another example of why you should all check your rosters on the website (especially after the FA draft)

This is okay, a $16M swing in salary in return for 1 substantial and 1 okay player for next year?

And, It’s probably one substantial and a good bullpen piece and good OF and a backup catcher. Wasn’t thrilled in giving up both Skubal and Cabrera, but really needed someone good to start next year.

It's really not for me to say if this was a fair trade or not. All of us probably evaluate each player completely differently. Heck, if we thought the same nobody could ever make a trade. With that said, my first impression was WOW! Is this a fair trade? But who knows.
