BWB 014 - Hey Now, You're An All-Star

I wanted to start off with an introductory question today and get your feedback on this.

With the deadlines approaching in not only major leagues, but also in our fantasy baseball leagues for trades, less than a month to go in most places, which is kind of crazy.

What's one tip that you have for listeners regarding getting the deal done?

So for me... it's understanding your league and it's understanding your league mates and understanding what they might need and stuff like that.

So just recently I tried something new that I'd never tried before.

So just a little bit of context, it's an auto new league, which has weird settings.

But it's a very active league, except for a few players who come in and out.

So anyways, one player who's not really active made a move on the wire.

So I realized he's active.

He's on the thing.

So I wanted to come up with a trade because there was someone who I really liked on his team, given the settings.

So...

I wasn't sure what to do, so I actually used AI.

Really?

Yeah, I used AI to go through the process.

So what I did was I proposed a trade And then I gave the league settings like the scoring.

And then I also went through my rationale.

I went through, well, I have this guy and well, here was the trade.

Anyways, it was I would be offering Gage Jump and Salvador Perez.

This is a dynasty.

Right.

For Kyder Montero from the Tigers.

Now, on paper, it doesn't sound good at all for me.

However, given my league settings, I can't drop Salvador Perez for the rest of the year, and he's been terrible.

And given the league settings, it's points per inning pitched for Ottenu.
