You easily have enough depth to replace Lee. I would definatly do that deal and grab a top tier closer.

I'm getting real close to sending Ortiz/Dempster for Lincecum....should I do both deals or does this weaken my bench too much?

I'd do that too assuming you can spare a big bat. Dempster ain't that good. We got Dempster last year, I'm willing to bet we get Dumpster this year.

Just out of curiosity, is this the same league? A different owner in the same league? If so and if it's a money league, can I get in on this... LMAO.

Do both deals. In a 8 team league, 1B and UT is easy to find.
