**2018 Degenerate Fantasy Baseball League**

F Me In The Brain

Mike Trout is the best player in the league.
Bryant is a stud but he hasnt played a full season up, no way he pushes out Trout.

You dont need votes for a trade, you need 5 votes against to veto. Why would people veto? You know Ani wants to win this league so he isnt doing it to try and collude with me. He is not mentally handicapped, so he knows what he is doing. He did not make the trade offer last night, when we were both inebriated.

He is of sound mind. This is clearly not to try and collude. While you can certainly make a case against trading the 1st guy at 3B and the worst Closer for the 6th best 3B and the 2nd best closer (using Fantasy Alarm Draft Guide, 12 team league assessment) there are clearly value cases to be made for it.

No reason to vote against.

Actually Fantasy Alarm Draft Guide has the Phillies' Closer Nerris as undraftable. They have guys who arent even closers ahead of him. He is trash.
Actually, I take that back. He may be a very nice man who is kind to elderly ladies and small, companion animals. It is not right to call him trash. He is a fantasy player judged unworthy of team ownership consideration, as stated by the crack team at Fantasy Alarm.

First of all fme, you're not going to ass rape me the way you ass raped ani. No way I'm trading Goldy for pujols.

Second, you're only losing about 10-15 total saves from Jensen to Neriis.

Third, Bryant only missed 20 days last year due to management holding him in the minors for contractual issues. He played a full season and had a better season than trout. Bryant is easily one of the top 3 players in the league. And can easily be considered the best player in the league.

Fourth, what does being a nice guy have to do with being a garbagel 3rd baseman? No, I don't think there is any collusion going on. But this trade is so bad, that I doubt it will be too hard to find 5 guys to veto it.

Amongst the Ani

Maybe I want to have all nice guys on my team. I took second last year so I like to believe I know what I am doing.

Degeneratefk

Lackey for arrieta? Seriously? Your ass is bleeding so bad that you think im going to take it up the ass?

Did you read the comment?
"Imagine it is 2009"
Just trying to lighten the mood, you seem to be taking this Bryant trade very personally.
Trout is best player in the league by any objective review.
I get you not being objective about Bryant. Part of why I love Votto as much as I do (and Super Todd) is my Reds fandom.

F Me In The Brain

I still think Veto is dumb. The only reason to veto is if you believe it is collusion or taking advantage of someone. I would never do anything on purpose to hurt the league or cheat -- Fantasy Baseball is something I love. Plus, we are putting in money and once the season starts I would not be messing with other people's money.

Degeneratefk

I most certainly am being objective about bryant. He won the MVP award, remember?

I'm not taking it personally. The trade is garbage. You're not looking at the trade objectively because you are on the winning end of the dumbest fantasy trade ever.

Everyone needs to vote on this trade.

Oh I am sure there have been a lot worse.

You know that there is an MVP in both leagues right? And that Mike Trout won last year as well?
How about 2014 when Mike Trout won?
Baseball is about consistency. If Bryant can finish top 2 in MVP voting the first 5 years he is in the league then we can talk.
(Trout is the only player ever to do this.)
I'm not crapping on your boy -- I think he is awesome. And he might end up being the best player in the game. Right now, that distinction belongs to The Millville Meteor, Mike Trout.

He didn't finish 5th like your boy cueto. And bryant was in diapers in 2014. He wasn't quite eligible for thebaward.

Oh, and he led the cubs to a world series win. Has trout done that?

Amongst the Ani

Yup, cause 1 player in baseball can win a World Series.

This discussion is sorta like the 12 yr old kids on my nephew's baseball team.
They think every time someone has a great run that they are the best ever. A few years ago it was Steph Curry. This year they all are talking about the youngest Ball kid, who apparently is a hoops YouTube darling. "He could beat anyone". Umm.....

Backing my opinion is pretty much every fantasy baseball service ranking & baseball writer.
All still just opinions, of course. You could certainly end up being​ right. I just do not happen to think so.

I'm not sure you're reading every "fantasy baseball service" because most of them have Jose altuve as the best, fantasy wise.

ESPN and Yahoo are the two biggest in the USA. Both listed Mike Trout as #1 overall player to draft.
