Need help on a few Chris Davis offers

Postby JeebusMcC » Tue Mar 03, 2009 4:05 pm

Hey everyone. This is coming from a CBS points league that has ten teams. Basically, myself and one other guy were the only two that showed up for the draft and CBS's autodraft isn't great so some people wound up with crappy teams. I have two guys desperately trying to get Chris Davis out of my hands and amidst all of the downright awful deal they have offerred (Damon for Davis, Beltre for Davis, M Young for Davis) a few gems have actually come out of it. Here is my roster:

C McCann
1B Teixeira
2b Kinsler
3b A Ramirez
SS Furcal
OF Braun
OF Rios
OF Soriano
Util Hart
BN Davis

SP Cain, Danks, Lester, Shields, Vazquez
RP Lidge, Rivera
BN Bedard, Smoltz, C Young, Soria

Offer 1:
Peavy and C B Young for Davis and Soria

Offer 2: Markakis for Davis

Offer 1 definitely helps my starting pitching, but considering I am giving up a possible third rounder by year's end in Davis and an elite closer in Soria, I think I should be getting a bit more back than Young, although I really like him aside from the average. Offer 2 I am considering just because I love Markakis and own him in every other league and with the steals I think he is a little more valuable than Davis even if the deal doesn't help my team as much. Should I consider either of these? I sent the first guy an offer of Davis for Lincecum so that one might still be in play also.

I think you are right in thinking that you need more back than Young in deal one and I like deal two. I think Markakis is more valuable than Davis and would do that one.

thanks for your help with mine

I actually think your pitching is fine...a little young but Cain, Lester and Shields are aces in my book and have the chance to score as much as Peavy in a points league. I also take trade 2 and run...I like Hart but Markakis is a nice upgrade to him.

Help with mine please? Thanks
