That is a fair offer. But, I would still rather have Kinsler.

Welcome to the cafe! :-)

I don't think that is enough for Kinsler. He is a top 2 2B in the league. Rios is a good OF but not elite. I would be looking to get back an elite OF if your dealing Kinsler.

I would rather have Kinsler because he is one of the best available 2b and i don't like to chase saves. Good Luck!

Thanks alot for the fast responses, i think i might keep kinsler and if offers again try to get holliday or lee which he has both of, though i doubt he would go for that.

Holliday and Soria is fair. Chances are Kinsler went ahead of Holliday in the draft, no?

Who plays second for you if you do this? Who would you have to drop if you took two players for Kinsler? Do you really need another OF and another closer?

The offer of Rios/Soria isn't nearly enough for someone you took no lower than the 2nd round.

In my draft kinsler was 1st, holliday was 4th,
My second basemen then would be Plácido Polanco
My outfield then would be magglio ordonez, carl crawford, and Alex Rios EDIT: Or holliday depending on which trade
My closer as of now is Mariano Rivera, though i though having two wouldnt hurt, Having soria set up for Mo.
