Ok I think this is not at all even close to a balanced offer, guy who offered it sounded supprised at my reaction, am I missing something (cause I've been wrong before a time or 12)?
I'd be GIVING:
Miguel Cabrera 46/3
Dustin Pedroia 2B $1/1yrs
Josh Hamilton $4/1 yr
Jacob McGee P $1/2yrs

I'd be GETTING:
Evan Longoria $2/2yr
Roy Halladay $21/2
Jose Lopez $1/4

for a standard 5x5, no mi/ci, 3 of,1 utl ,9 p league

Miguel Cabrera 46/3 - ok so he's only worth $40
Dustin Pedroia 2B $1/1yrs - not bad for a $20+ guy
Josh Hamilton $4/1 yr - just a tick under Mcab
Jacob McGee P $1/2yrs - who cares at this point

Evan Longoria $2/2yr - could return you $20
Roy Halladay $21/2 - right on the button here
Jose Lopez $1/4 - nice player at maybe $15

Give me the Mcab/Pedroia/Hamilton trifecta ;-D

Yeah you gotta take that deal. Easily.

No he was wanting me to GIVE MCab, Hamilton, Pedroia

I would stay put. Perhaps counter with a deal involving MCab and Longoria if you really want Longoria because I don't see a $44 gap in their value.

i believe that's what the previous posters were assuming. for this season, it is a good deal for you if you are making a run at the title. to make a worthwhile suggestion though, we'll all need to see your roster.

I would much rather have the MCab side.

Oh. Yeah the M-Cab side is infinitely better. Keep your guys.

by **GiantsFan14** » Tue Dec 16, 2008 3:13 pm

ya i'd take it. what you're getting is A LOT better this year and while his probably gets better in 2010, its not enough to overcome the value you get in 2009.

Tough call. I think it depends on how much you can keep Hamilton after '09 and if you could retain him. You surely cut a lot of cost in dealing M-Cab for Halladay/Longoria while getting a 3B for the future with M-Cab slated to be designated as only 1B the year after. I'm not that high on Pedroia, but maybe you can milk a little bit more than Jose Lopez, with Pedroia's stock inflated.
