The reason being, because I have good starters.
Liriano $4
Litsch $1
Chamberlain $13
Morrow $14
Escobar $3
Pettitte $10
I know there is nothing great here, but ALOT of potential. I Didn't really want a to have another maybe in the rotation. plus the fact that i need a closer or 2 and a setup man to help ERA and Whip. He was my best pawn in trading
I just got another offer for Price. Pedrioa $11(09") , Zumaya $10(10") and Rodney $1(10")

It's not that i'm trying to get rid of him, just get what I deserve for him and Hopefully win this year. WInner takes over $2500.
My other keepers are... Huff $9, Longoria $10, Harris $1, Bartlett $5

Thats my thought anyway, I welcome yours. Thanks, Mike

I like Price at $10 as much as Joba and Morrow.

I do like the Pedroia deal if you can replace Zumaya with someone else.

What do you project to be available for 2B?

Kinsler, Roberts, Cano, Alexi, Figgins, Pedroia....maybe Kendrick on the next tier.
that's about it for good 2B in the AL. Looking at your pitching depth, it may be a good trade for you, Rodney for $1 could be big, but Zumaya's not really keepable at $10.

Sorry guys, hate to keep beating this horse, but...
The guy had offered me BJ Ryan (13) and Wheeler (4) has added Mauer (27) to the trade. all for Price.
Catchers (2 each) in an AL only league with 12 owners is 24 catchers, as you know there is only 14 starters basically.
Getting Mauer might be huge.
What do you think of this one with Mauer added?

Hope I did the right thing, but I had to act fast on this one.
I tarde Price(10), B. Wood(10) and Adam Jones(10)
for Mauer(27), BJ Ryan(13) and Wheeler(4).
Catchers are really hard to come by in our league.
Just thought I would tell you all the outcome.

Not really a fan of this at all. Price has #1 upside. Mauer at that price isn't that appealing. I would have rather targeted someone cheaper like Wieters or Ianetta if you were so set on dealing Price. Also I think you are going to regret dealing Adam Jones for Ryan. I think most are projecting Jones to go 20/20, while BJ Ryan is more a mid tier closer now days.
