Spectra Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Not so much the fair trades, but just knowing in advance what becomes of the prospects is what I consider cheating. In real life prospects are just that, in this game however prospects are stars in the making. But that's not true either, there's been plenty of prospects who haven't panned out in my dynasty. The only way it's cheating, in my opinion, is if you edit the prospects to have more "prospect stars" than they are supposed to have and thus increasing their chances of becoming star players.

jservice Posted June 8, 2005 Author Share Posted June 8, 2005 Let's not lose the reason for this thread. To post the fair trades made. If you traded fairly for a player then write down all info about trade. Who for Who - and the year you're in The Contract - Yr @ $$$ I refer everyone back to the first post. Let's keep this informational, not trivial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectra Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Third year of dynasty, traded Aramis Ramirez to Seattle for Adrian Beltre. Beltre better at almost everything but only marginally better overall. Contracts: Beltre - 3 years @ 12.8 million, Ramirez - 3 years @ 8.5 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brodieman Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 As Seattle I've traded Raul Ibanez, who was hitting .211, straight-up for Willy Mo Pena, who is 6 years younger, only slightly less capable in terms of fielding and hitting right-handers (I'm hoping those will pick up sometime between now and age 30 :roll: ), and absolutely destroys left-handers (95/85). A capable DH for now and heir-apparent to Ichiro in a couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguininja Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Anyone sorta feel like they are cheating? MVP 2003 used to let me trade absolute bums for above average players in a series of trades, and then allow me to acquire anyone for 3 of those above average players. By comparison, this hardly feels wrong at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tvcharmer Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 Alright. Does the money still have to match up perfectly or do you have to take on more salary for a trade to take place in Dynasty mode? Always seems that way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP_Frost Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 I've been trying to trade Todd Walker and here are some trades that I'm able to make ( this is in dynasty mode ): CHC Trade: T. Walker C. Fox for H. Blalock crappy AAA pitcher CHC Trade: T. Walker for A. Soriano and a rp ( soriano's salary is only 2 mil in my game, maybe cuz of editing ) CHC Trade: T. Walker for M. Young AAA Player this is with fair trades on. Doesn't seem very realistic. I almost went through with that Blalock trade, but figured that Texas would never do that in real life and Blalock has only played 4 games in his MLB career starting at second, so...I didn't do it. should I go through with one of these? ( i'm not in need of a power hitter or anything, just a solid player ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP_Frost Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 In dynasty yes. I believe owner mode is alot easier to use for trades. EA really got things wrong this time. I like a challenge so that I cannot just trade for Pujols, but let's I'm offering Kerry Wood for Mike Redman - just cuz their salaries don't compute doesn't mean the cpu shouldn't go through with it. Now if the comp is taking on millions of salary then I can understand, but just 1 mil extra shouldn't restrain the cpu from making a trade ( during the season, sometimes the computer offers me trades that makes them TAKE ON salary, so ... ). It seems like the guys over at EA made it either too easy or too hard...there's no in between. Anyway, if you use your creativity then you're still able to pull/rip off the computer :chin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolliefingers08 Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Have noticed this, owner mode is way too easy for trades. I feel like my team is getting too good through trades so I'm going to start restricting what I do even if the CPU allows it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brodieman Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Yeah, he's got great speed, a steady glove, and a rocket for an arm. He's the CF in my dynasty, and I'd put him in center over Old Man Griffey any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
