I'm in a 12 Team Mixed 5x5 Auction Keeper League. Do you think this trade can be rejected or it is fair? Please explain. Thanks!

A-Rod, Billy Wagner and Mike Pelfrey for Delmon Young, JJ Putz, Brandon Inge & Joe Saunders

Note: Mike Pelfrey and Delmon Young cannot be dropped off the roster until 2009 because he is designated as a franchised player. Therefore he will automatically cost $1 next year and $6 the following year.

I don't know the dynamics of your keeper league, but Delmon probably won't pass ARod in production anytime during their respective tenures on their new teams. Without the consideration of salaries, I'd say this is a vetoable trade, but if the ARod owner is freeing up what I imagine would be a ton of cap room, then it's probably legit. I'd like to know the reasonining in any case though.

Agreed. I'm also sure that Wagner isn't coming cheap.
