Bay/Garza for Burrell/Cano?? Always WHIR!

Postby coldfusion » Tue Dec 02, 2008 7:21 pm

My Jason Bay and Matt Garza for his Pat Burrell and Robinson Cano is the proposed deal. It's a 10 team Dynasty League with standard cats plus OBP, SLG, K/BB, and Holds, with a pretty shallow FA market in terms of OF and MI. My biggest problem would be how inconsistent Burrell tends to be on a year to year basis, as well as Cano's ability to bounce back and be productive. If I did this trade, I would drop a catcher (probably Shoppach) for either Joe Saunders, Wandy Rodriguez, or Gavin Floyd. Good deal for me? This would allow me to move Wigginton to the OF.

ALWAYS WHIR!

My roster:

C Pablo Sandoval
1B Alex Gordon
2B Dustin Pedroia
3B David Wright
SS Hanley Ramirez
MI Ty Wigginton
CI Jorge Cantu
LF Jason Bay
CF Ichiro
RF Jack Cust
OF Denard Span
OF Conor Jackson
Ut Jeff Clement
Bn Jarrod Saltalamacchia
Bn Adam Jones
Bn Kelly Shoppach

SP Edinson Volquez
SP Ricky Nolasco
SP James Shields
SP Matt Garza
RP Brad Lidge
RP Joakim Soria
RP Kevin Gregg
P Kyle McClellan
P Max Scherzer
P Ubaldo Jimenez
Bn John Maine
Bn Dustin McGowan (DL bound)

I don't think I would do this. First off you don't have the depth at SP to trade Garza. He is still young and has a lot of potential. I am not a fan of Burrell or Cano and both aren't sure things. Stay pat.

Eek. Stay away

Cano should be better than last year, but it's tough to be much worse and I don't see him as a top 5 2B anymore. Stick with what you have

You may also want to consider how much OF eligibility is Wigg going to be getting in the future.

I would pass on this deal, Bay is the younger better OF, and Garza is more a stud and set to be good in the future.
While Cano was shaky last year, but the Bay side is way better.

I would stick with Bay/Garza. I do think Cano will have a bounce back year. Get him to pair Cano with a 2-3 round talent in a redraft and that would be a deal to consider.
