<div dir="ltr">I'd argue with the "higher level" prospects point (unless I was willing to take $10 guys -- a group long "dissed" by you!). Not much trade-able stuff on Jeff's major league side either, to be honest, after his Sale deal -- at least not if he wanted to make a run at you given the size of your lead. Maybe you're thinking of Chisenhall ... but I'm not sure he's such a great keeper. He's never been a full-time player his whole career, and his first-half performance looks a bit Yonder Alonso-esque to me. <div><br></div><div><div><div>In any event, if the league would allow us to view first and last as "contiguous" in a circular sort of way, I didn't move Miggy Cabrera, so maybe we can still deal. :)</div><div><br></div><div>-Andy</div></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Aug 6, 2017 at 1:17 PM, springkerb--- via Announce <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:announce@usml.net" target="_blank">announce@usml.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><font color="black" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Well, I needed pitching, and yours sucked, so there just wasn't a deal there to be had there.

<div dir="auto">I sent more messages to Kerber asking about dealing my hitters than Trump sent tweets in the past six weeks. Some years, frontrunners make offers to try and block their competitors. Other years, ahem, they think they are so far ahead it's not necessary. So ... the last-place K9 had very little leverage on deadline day with Jeff being the league's only other buyer. Likely scenario is that I traded 3 non-keepers for 3 non-keepers. If one guy makes my team next year, I come out better than had I done nothing.</div>
