Sorry – I screwed that up, didn’t I.
 
Worthless, useless, worthless.  
 
Is that better?

Work with me, Jeff.  Useless, useless, useless.

I didn’t say they were useless.  They are likely to be critical to Rich’s attempts to avoid snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.  Saves is going to be a highly contested category.  But I don’t think they’ll help you or any other rebuilding team too much.  But I could be wrong.  Brad Lee – what sayest thou?

Jeff:  You're absolutely right.

Rich:  I'll take your closers off your hands, even though they're useless, as soon as I can pick up some salary.  Because I care.

I didn’t miss that.  Maybe it’s just me, but I assume that Carter Capps went for $8 because everyone noticed that Tom Wilhelmsen just might not be the second coming of Mariano.  And if there is a safer proposition than your pronouncement that $10 beans have no value, it has to be that closers are the least dependable commodity in fantasy baseball.  If I were building for next year, I’d definitely look somewhere other than a closer to build upon.  But that’s just me.  Well…..apparently you too since you didn’t go in that direction.  Just saying….

Um--Rich has a pair of closers, priced at $1 and $4, so I suspect he's not done yet.

This is clearly a case where the spirit of the league should trump what is Mr. Kerber’s very Klein-esque (and therefore highly respected) attempt to find a loophole.  These should be treated as unbalanced trades in my opinion.



 



If anyone else is ready to start playing for 2014, I suggest that they call me before the at one time presumptive champion.  I have far Moore to offer than Mr. Robbins who, as far as I can tell, has now shot his wad.  



 



Consider how nicely guys like Desmond Jennings ($15), Manny Machado ($10) and Jake Peavy ($9) would fit on your 2014 roster and they can be had right now.  Of course, once we get to the bean-deadline, I will have plenty of other guys available, including the second coming of Yu Darish, Masahiro Tanaka.  You know where to find me.

I can't imagine otherwise.  These are unbalanced trades. 




 




Any one else playing for 2014?  If so, call me.

I would interpret the rule to apply once the draft is over.  Should clean that up or argue about it if others disagree.

The Nukes, Berliners and Red Hots announce the following trades:

Nukes/Berliners:




Nukes to Berliners:  Billy Butler*, Coco Crisp, CC Sabathia* and Jared Burton
Berliners to Nukes:  Eric Hosmer,David Murphy*, Chris Tillman, Andrew Bailey




Nukes/Red Hots:




Nukes to Red Hots:  Matt Wieters, Justin Verlander*, Doug Fister and Darren Oliver
Red Hots to Nukes:  Tyler Flowers, Yu Darvish, Jarrod Parker and Sean Rodriguez




These trades are being treated as permitted unbalanced trades, per league rules, for purposes of this announcement.  However, for what it's worth, I think it is arguable that the rule does not apply to pre-season trades, because the rule expressly applies only during "the season" which is generally used in the rules to refer to the MLB regular season.
