trade bruce and hardy for billingsley?

Postby speedy27 » Sat Nov 15, 2008 6:09 pm

12 team 7x7 H2H keeper...i've got JJ Hardy and Bruce on my roster and both are bubble type keepers. Is this a fair and or decent offer for Billingsley?

Currently my keepers are as follows:

R.Howard
B.Phillips
Alexei Ramirez
E.Longoria
C.Crawford
V.Guerrero
J.Hamilton
Chipper Jones

R.Halladay
CC Sabathia

If I get Billingsley, I'd have to decide b/w Chipper and Ramirez on who'd get bumped...

If you can get that deal done than do it. It sounds like you are offering the trade and if that is the case than I don't see it being accepted. I would throw in Chipper and see if you can get the deal done then. If you were offered that trade than I would run with it. Bruce is the best player here and it is far from a sure thing that he will become a top OF next season. Billingsley should be a very good #2.

I might be alone on this one, but I think I would overpay, and deal Vlad for a pitcher. We have seen the best of Vlad, and it will only be downhill from here, but Bruce could end up being a 40HR guy. I would shop Vlad around and see who he can get you. I wouldn't mind getting Bills for him, but you might be able to do a bit better.

I'm with you. I'd throw out a couple of 2-for-1 deals. Vlad and Hardy for a good SP and Chipper and Bruce for a hitter upgrade. If I owned Chipper, I'd sell high just to get rid of hid "day-to-day" injury aggravation.
