Some Serious Help Needed (whir)

DL (OF) Carlos Quentin
BN (2B/3B/SS) Julio Lugo
BN (2B) Josh Barfield
BN (3B) Alex Gordon
BN (C) Ramon Hernandez (inj.)

BN (RP) Jorge Julio

Should I start trading my valuable backups now? Should I just drop Ramon and keep LoDuca there? How do I solve my Damon problem with Quentin on DL? I have people intersted in hot shot rookie Gordon even in this nonkeeper league. Also, with Lugo leading off he has to have some value. Plus, Barfield is looking more likley he will produce. Should I focus on trying to get a pitcher, for example, Cole Hamels or a Matt Cain or Scott Kazmir or should I try and get some offense with maybe a Matsui or Sheffield???

I would drop Ramon. He's hurt anyway and I don't see any reason to carry multiple catchers in a 10-team H2H league. I don't think Damon is going on the DL so I'm not sure you have a problem. If he does go on the DL and you only have one DL spot than I wouldn't hesitate to drop Quentin. I know he's a popular Cafe sleeper but he has questionable value in a 10-team league. I'd have to know the OF available on your wire to know for sure.

Which is better deal for me AND which deals are possible of acceptance once offered: (*I am offering Gordon/Lugo)

Dye is the best for you, but Rios is the most realistic. You could also get Kazmir or Hamels.

I'd recommend trying Dunn+Gordon for Dye.

try those. you never know but some peolpe will trade just about anything for gordon - a guy in my league got nathan for gordon straight up

[The River]

I sent out Matsui and Sheff for now, either one I would love and the Sheff guy is high on Gordon, so who knows....then I'll try Rios and then Dye and then Delmon. Hopefully it ends with Sheff or Mats.

out of all of those trades i think your best bet is delmon young maybe rios or swisher.. gordons popular but he does play on the worst team in baseball.. also i would try and too hard to get sheffield hes coming off surgery and hes playing in a huge ballpark
