My K-Rod and Damon for his Figgins and Granderson? WHIR

Postby sigriffey » Fri Mar 13, 2009 4:34 pm

Do I do this deal, and is it a fair trade?

I give: K-Rod and Damon
I get: Figgins and Granderson

Alternately, I could give him Hunter instead of Damon, but I think I want to hang onto Hunter.

my roster (12 team h2h league with 6 keepers)

C Wieters
1B Pujols
2B Iwamura
SS Rollins
3B Cabrera
OF Soriano
OF Sizemore
OF T.Hunter
UT Damon, Lowell, Kubel
B Griffey, B.Jacobs, E.Andrus


SP Peavy, Billingsley, J.Vazquez, Scherzer, B.Myers, T.Lilly, Buerhle
RP K-Rod,Broxton,M.Gonzalez

i dont do this deal...krod will be fine in NY, and Damon can still produce a bit, especially in the role you have for him on your squad
figgins is so grossly overrated to me, and granderson is OK, but nothing special, id rather stick with what youve got

I wouldn't do it either. I like KRod and Damon side better. Figgins is just good for his SB and Damon can get at least half of what Figgins would get. Plus you keep an elite closer. Your offense doesnt need Granderson either.

please help

If you had a better RP staff, I might do this as I think Granderson wil have a comeback year. But with your roster the way it is, I don't think you have enough depth to make up for the loss of saves K-rod gives you.

agreed here... although any chance of you upgrading your 2B situation? thats the only real weakness i see on your squad, thats the only reason i had a 2nd thought on this deal, and granderson isn't terrible, i think he actually has a great bounce back year this year... still don't think you can give up your best and really only dependable closer to get those 2 tho at this point...

help me out...

He also has Kendrick ... but is it fair to say Figgins adds more value with the speed?

What would be a good 2-for-1 deal for Granderson?

He really wants K-Rod and I want Granderson, but I would need to include a throw-in.

i understand you want granderson, but why that much? between rollins, soriano and sizemore you wont need much more speed... and at the cost of your best closer (really only legit closer) plus a throw in?? i would say he should give you granderson+throw in for KRod personally...

little help?...

Our league counts triples as a category ... so granderson, along with rollins and sizemore to an extent, would help me lock that down....

see thats why i don't understand why yall don't post everything about your league in the post? cuz that makes alot more sense, although its just one cat where as krod can really help your team in at least 3, but if you really want to do this i would send something small with Krod like Kubel or Buerhle...

can i get some help man?...
