Ready for Immersion to plummet now that the trading deadline passed?

Ready for Immersion to plummet now that the trading deadline passed?

Only the 40 man has passed.
Non 40-man players can be traded all year long.

I never said it wasn't allowed.

Jordan Hayden has played probably his last game as a Vice. 3 years, played incredible in all 3 but will be missing his 2nd post season. Fuck sakes the injuries are piling up, Kendall out 2 weeks, Thomas out 3, Hayden 3-4 months, Jenkins sore elbow. Franco will get hurt soon enough

[Cnasty]

Injuries, the great equalizer.

Not hijacking this as my trade thread... but I'm still open to making some non-40 man trades. The trade deadline only effectively applies to players on the 40 man roster.

Hit me up tonight. I've got some OF in my minors that are kind of stuck right now and aren't (I believe) on my 40 man

Gustavo Guzman... Worst draft pick EVER. He looked destined to have an amazing career. He was on the fast track from the minors to the bigs, and was a big reason my team made it to the ALCS that season. Since then, hes been injured 6 times. He tore his rotator cuff 2 seasons ago, was out for 13 months. Then had a set back, out an additional 6 months. Just got him back recently and had him on rehab assignment in AA to see what he had left. His rehab was just ending, then now he is having surgery to remove bone chips from his elbow, out 6 months. I have never seen a player go through injuries like this ever, it's truly amazing.

Wayne Washington = Frank Thomas.

Both broke into the league at the age of 22.
Wayne Washington is on pace to surpace most of the Big Hurt's numbers except for doubles. He would have to pick it up to catch the average and OBP though.

3B's: 12 - 10
HR's: 521 - 428 (603 averaging 35 HR's)
RBI's: 1704 - 1181 (1681 averaging 100 RBIs)

Speaking of the cyclical nature of things, remember when Nick used to talk up the AL East and how tough it was? Times have changed, seems pretty balanced, but it looks like the AL East is the weakest AL division, and maybe the 2nd weakest of the 6 divisions.

New York is having a case of Trendonitis, NE is having a down year for some reason, and Cle and PO have recently fell off the map in the last month or so. Doesn't help that Nick's team is so good, that he constantly beats all of us, making it look even worse than it is.

JD was the big winner in the NL. Wright is pitching lights out, 4-0 in 4 starts with a 1.80 ERA. I knew he would be a beast in the NL

"The Co" is not impressed.

Hey Hercules, so glad you could join us for the 2032 season...
A. Hernández : 23 AB, 12 H, 6 HR, 12 RBI, .522 AVG, 1.968 OPS


Apparently Herc wasn't too fond of sharing the spotlight with Highbarger.

Looking at his ratings at the time, I really thought 55+ HRs per year would be the norm for him.

So..... I pulled a trendon last night. Did a handful of moves and then apparently didn't export. /facepalm

BTW, I looked at the few teams that reached out to me. I'll get back to you today, privately.

[Uuaww]

Though not likely, still possible for me to have a 20 game winner and 20 game loser. Silva and van seggelen both picked up number 14.
