Out here in Colorado Braz has been wheelin and dealing. He has made 12 trades and 3 moves on waivers which had us bringing in a ton of new players across the majors and minors. For 2011 we are projecting a payroll over 100 million dollars and below allows us to break down all we can show for it! Our mission has been relentless to improve the farm, bring in talent and develop the team infront of us. Lets recap what we have done below for the fan news letter.
Trade 1: What a good deal for both sides. Actually all 3. Manny won a WS, Philly won a WS and Braz got an asset to use in the future. First trade on the board. That first later helped acquire big Papi!
MR Les Walrond (AAA)
Phillies Receive:
DH Manny "Man" Ramirez
SF 2011 1st
Chad Zerbe MR
Rockies trade...
Todd Helton 1B
35 pts
Tor gets:
$10M
Ian Snell SP MLB
Colorado gets:
Robinson Cano, MLB 2B
Trade 5:After another deal didn’t happen I had a chance to acquire my first farm player. Walker is a player I like a lot in the MLB. Lets go!
Twins send 1B Christian Walker (after reversal) to the Rockies for their 3rd and a scrub.
Trade 6: Easily my favorite trade on the first season and maybe Play pitied me here. As a Mets fan I saw I couldn’t get wright so I pivoted to Jose Reyes. He is fun.
Rockies send
San Fran first round pick this year
AAA OF Dave Roberts or any other Minor league scrub
60 points
Cubs send
Jose Reyes
Tommy Pham
Rockies send
70 points
OF Mike "Yaz" Yastrzemski
Rockies send
30 points
Trade 8: Continue improvement led to this move. Hes not great but he was better than nothing, for nothing.
Twins trade DH Lyle Overbay to the Rockies for...nothing.
ONTO The offseason!
Trade 9: This is the big one, the one that defined the franchise itself. We pushed the limited on both our abilities and our payroll with this one it feels like. Freeman is our present and future. We move our franchise player Troy Tulo, recently acquired Cano and CC who is on a God contract. But I really do like Greinke. I was able to use the other assets for deals to fill the team out. Its been fun. This one took a long time to get done!
STL Sends:
Brian Schneider, Catcher
Freddie Freeman, First Base
Josh Hamilton, Centerfield
Zack Greinke, Starting Pitcher,
75 points
2012 1st
2012 2nd
2012 3rd
COL Sends:
C.C. Sabathia, Starting Pitcher
Troy "Tulo" Tulowitzki, First Base
Robinson Cano, Second Base
Trade 10: I did not see this one coming and kind of regret moving that pick. Wells is arguably more valuable then Ortiz maybe I could have gotten it done a dif way. Originally I was pumped to have such a big homer threat in the line up! Anyways I think we are better off because of it, at least for this one season.
LAD sends
David Ortiz
Brian Roberts
50 points
Colorado sends
Vernon Wells
Abercrombie
Phil first this year
As you know we had two trades that did not happen (void) and in addition to the above I claimed CF dual threat Vernon Wells off waivers as well as Aramis Ramirez. To bolster our system Colby Rasmus was also acquired to join our AAA team.
Thanks for reading until next time!
