Keeper League Trade Helo

Postby KyleJames101 » Wed Nov 12, 2008 1:13 pm

Hello everyone. In a deep league I have Lester. I am thinking of packaging him with Morrison (prospect with the Marlins) to trade for Tulo. Should I make that deal?

I need a SS and I'm not totally sold on Lester.

Personally I'm more sold on Lester than Tulo. But Tulo will be the most debated player on the forum this year. What I don't like is giving up a pretty good prospect also in the deal. But if your pitching is good enough to withstand the loss of Lester (don't steal for peter to pay paul) then Lester for Tulo isn't a horrible trade imo (although this could be endlessly debated I'm sure).

This love-fest with Tulowitzki has to stop. He had one good season. Holliday is gone, Tulo struggled mightily last year (injury or no injury), and Lester was arguably the American League's best pitcher in the second half of the season. This would be moronic at best, regardless of how good your pitching staff is.

I'm with the others here. I like Tulowitzki though and I wouldn't mind trading for him right now because I think his value is pretty low, but if you are trading away Lester for Tulo, you better get something else along with Tulo and not add a prospect yourself.

just curious what you didn't like about Lester, thought anybody that owned him would be really big on him at this point. With so little info provided its really hard to see why you'd need Tulo that bad
