Morneau/Holliday for Howard/Peavy trade?

Postby Burt » Sun Mar 15, 2009 10:28 am

H2H, 5x5, 15-player keeper league.
1B Pujols, Morneau
2B Utley, Alexei Ramirez (SS)
3B Longoria
OF Braun, Holliday, Crawford, Pence
C V Martinez
SP Lincecum, Kazmir, E Santana, Nolasco, Price

Our 10 round draft starts later this week. I've been offered Howard and Peavy plus his 3rd and 8th round pick...for Morneau, Holliday and my 5th and 6th rounders. Originally I didnt care much for the trade, but with Santana's elbow on the brink I'm thinking a little harder on the deal. Just counting the players straight up, it doesnt appear to be a bad deal, does it? Adding in the fact that I'd be moving up 2 rounds (17 spots) early in the draft just adds to it. Thoughts?

Tempting, and fair. Could you hold on to Holliday and give up Crawford and Santana with one additonal coming back instead. Peavy is ahving a rough spring, and usually misses a few starts... Still a stud, but I agree it is a thinker. The suggestion might swing my mood.

I like both deals for the teams. Not really swayed too much either way. I like Peavy a lot, but am not a fan of you losing Holliday. It's a decent deal, but not good enough to pull the trigger on.

here's mine
