I wasn't suggesting that he'd be a killer starter - just a solid option that paid dividends for me last season.

Glad to see this is ramping up again. I'll have to dig in to the roster over the next couple of days and I'll get my keepers posted.

"bovthomas - any interest in upgrading at closer? I'd be willing to deal one of my closers (Wood, Bell, or Marmol) for Adrian Gonzalez or Joey Votto. Would you trade Votto for Wood straight up."
I'd like to see if I can upgrade at C or CF before I'd deal for a RP.

Would love to deal Adrian Gonzalez, Joey Votto, or Rickie Weeks for a CF. I have Carlos Gonzalez, Franklin Gutierrez, and Jay Bruce all eligible to be a CF keeper. I would trade any of them.

My tentative keepers as of today are: C: Geovani Soto 1B: Billy Butler 2B: Mark DeRosa 3B: David Wright SS: Maicer Izturis LF: Shin-Soo Choo CF: Nate McLouth RF: Michael Cuddyer SP1: Brandon Webb SP2: James Shields RP1: Matt Capps RP2: Brandon Lyon RP3: JA Happ (if allowed, still shows as SP/RP), if not, Sergio Romo
Any deal for even a semi proven closer will be considered. I'm still waiting on the league # and password so I can sign up on Yahoo.

Re: Keeper League Offseason Thread
if the RP eligible guy has no more than 5-6 saves he is eligible for being kept as the 3rd RP
i have some talent people might want
Franklin for closer (i know we are all a little down on him but it is his job to lose) Garrett Jones (1b,lf,rf) good looking rookie last year Nolan Reimold good lookign rookie Everth cabrera speedster SS mark ellis 2b came off injury to look good at the end of the season i have more but i think these are the top ones
also i could deal for the right price: Berkman (1b) Morales (1b,RF) Michael Young (3b,ss) Zobrist 2b,ss,lf,rf,cf (i think cf) Brian Roberts (2b)
all of those last 5 are keepers so i wont trade them unlessi get keeper level back...thoguh i woudl consider dealing multiple of those last 5 or any of them in a combination with the earlier

Re: Keeper League Offseason Thread
I now have Carlos Pena and Joey Votto available to trade...in addition to someone like Franklin Gutierrez and a few decent pitchers.
Looking for an upgrade at third over Brandon Wood...or I guess a SP if better than Danks...or a catcher if better than Montero.

CHANGES IN BOLD, as of today. easton714 wrote: My keepers as of today:
C Miguel Montero 1B Joey Votto 2B Chase Utley SS Erik Aybar 3B Brandon Wood (I guess) LF Manny Ramirez CF Carlos Gonzalez RF Nick Markakis
SP John Lester SP John Danks CL Mike Gonzalez CL Frank Francisco RP Neftali Feliz
I am torn about my CF and, to a lesser extent, my SP choices.
I still have Franklin Gutierrez available for CF, and he has some value.
For SP, I am pretty set on Lester (unless I get a nice offer and decide to trade him) but less set on spot number two. Danks is the best bet to me, but Buchholz, Lilly, Masterson, and Oswalt intrigue me. If you would be interested in any of these, I would listen.
For RP, I am pretty set on my three keepers, but Angel Guzman, Chris Perez, Brad Ziegler and, unless not allowed in that spot, Masterson would all be intriguing for that last RP spot.
In the end, I would be most interested in upgrading at third base and catcher....so keep that in mind as you make offers.

Re: Keeper League Offseason Thread
I am interested in Votto or Adrian......Here is my current roster, I will put a * by the players I am willing to trade.....many of which I am sure you would not be interested in.....
Michael Brantley * Chris Davis Carlos Delgado * Elijah Dukes * Josh Hamilton Todd Helton * Matt Holliday Adam Jones Alexei Ramirez Brandon Phillips Pablo Sandoval Chris Young *
Brett Anderson * Jon Broxton * Matt Daley * Octavio Dotel * Brian Fuentes * Matt Gurrier * Tommy Hanson Phil Hughes Clayton Kershaw Brad Lidge * Daisuke Matsuzaka * Carl Pavano * Ian Snell * Matt Thorton * Carlos Villanueva *
I see you are in need of a closer. I'd consider Fuentes or Lidge for Votto possibly. Its kind of hard to trade before the draft because the players traded have to be of keeper value. YOu cannot keep 2 1bmen, and you only have 1 closer really, but I have 3 closers and can only keep 2. Seems like we could work out a straight up swap?
Lidge should come back strong this year. I'd prefer to trade you Fuentes for votto because I'm pretty high on LIdge, but I would also do Lidge, just whoever you prefer. Broxton is not an option.
So would you do Fuentes or Lidge for Votto? I can

Re: Keeper League Offseason Thread
TheJager and I have agreed on a trade.
Jager gets:
Carl Crawford Jose Reyes
KetchamCards gets:
Michael Young Brian Roberts Garrett Jones Fransisco Cordero
The trade also opens up a spot on my keepers list for Ryan Zimmerman. I would've cried if I couldn't keep him. Anyway, Jager told me to post the trade here to make sure everyone is OK with it. With it, my keepers would change to be..
C: Jorge Posada 1B: Mark Reynolds 2B: Brian Roberts 3B: Ryan Zimmerman SS: Michael Young LF: Adam Dunn CF: Curtis Granderson RF: Garrett Jones
SP1: Justin Verlander SP2: Matt Cain
RP1: Bobby Jenks RP2: Fransisco Cordero RP3: Ronald Belisario
