He countered with Kinsler/wainwright/Liriano for Hanley/H. Matsui/J. Sanchez
I don't know much about Sanchez
And I feel that Matsui isn't much of a upgrade for my outfield (see roster below) but I would love Hanley.
What do you guys think.

I don't know if I'd do either deal to tell you the truth. Kinsler is maybe the #2 2b right now. Wainright is solid, as is Pence. Sure, Hanley is a stud, but you could do worse than Furcal. That said, you have to give up talent to gain talent. I'd probably offer Furcal in a deal and see where that goes. otherwise, you end up with two SS and no 2b.
As stated, you definately have the arms to pull off this deal and you should do the deal asap. The fact that you have Utley to fill in at 2B. You have lots of good options to trade with for SP and/or OF down the road if need be. Help with mine viewtopic.php?t=367319&start=10
1. You have the arms to deal from 2. If I am reading it right you could slide Utley to second and move Chris Davis off your bench and into the IF spot.
