First trade offer from him..Manny for Jenks and Zumaya
Counter offer..Manny and Wheeler (for HLDS) for Haren and Fuentes
His counter...Ludwick for Fuentes..On table now

In a 20 team league I like my hitters in my outfield allot, I guess my question is can I trust Rasmus and McCutchen enough to pull this trade to get a closer? or do I offer a Manny combo up to others for a SP/CL combo?

I like the last deal, I dont expect much from Ludwick this year, so move him while you can

I don't think you can trust Rasmus or McCutchen to A. start the season in the majors and B. to produce at a high quality in their first seasons.

That said, I like the deal and think you should do it and then sign an outfielder.

I agree, that trade would help you out big time, and I don't think Ludwick can repeat his performance from last season.

I would not have done the Manny trade however. I traded him last year after he quit on the Sox, and I grew to regret it because the guy who I traded him to knocked me out of the playoffs in the semis...

If Manny wants to play, he will be top 10 fantasy player. And looking at the offers he is getting now (none) he will be playing for a contract again...

I like the deal for you. Take fuentes.
