[Xezus]

12 team H2H 8x8 cats. Keep 7 players (this is first year of league)

My team:
C-Martin
1B-Pujols
2B-Phillips
3B-Cantu
SS-Jeter
OF-Beltran
OF-Cruz
OF-Chris Young
Util-Delgado
BN-Butler, Delmon Young

SP-Santana, Billingsley, Joba, Kazmir, Scherzer, Parra, Malhom (who is having a fantastic spring )
RP-Fuentes, Corpas, Perez (im monitoring both COL and STL closer situations to make adjustments to make sure i have 2 closers)

His Team:
C-Molina
1B-Fielder
2B-Roberts
3B-Wright

Util-Damon
BN-Bradley

SP-Felix, Lester, Cain, Nolasco, Slowey, Weaver, Myers, Buehrle
RP-Lidge, F. Cordero, Samardzija

I have a mancrush on Mr. David Wright and am trying to aquire him via trade. I dont like having alot of players from the same team on my fantasy team, idk if thats a normal concern or not, but that entices me to try to move Delgado and or Beltran. My OF isnt exactly the greatest so if i were to lose Beltran i would have to get back some servicable OF in return, possibly Justin Upton, because markakis and BJ might be too high to aim. Obviously i offer Cantu, but can anyone else see anyone else to trade? Who else do i try to package on his team?

I know these arent the most fun posts to respond 2 but i appreciate any input u guys could give me.

also option #2: should i possibly just stay put and not go after wright?

Thanx leave a link!

you should forgo wright and worry about shoring up your OF first. i mean honestly cantu isn't my first option, but he's better than nelson cruz, and chris young.

you don't have a lot of pieces to move around, but the two things i would think of are to move russell martin and johan santana. they're the two your going to get the most out of and can afford to lose. for johan get yourself a mid-tier OF and P back. and maybe for russell you can get another P or OF. C is something that is expendable so you should be able to pick someone up like kurt suzuki and you'll be better off than keeping martin. cause for some reason i get the feeling you picked him a little too high and missed out on quality players.

like going after damon would be perfect for you

I hate to echo the previous statement, but I think you put your energy elsewhere. By the time, you get Wright, you will have several holes to fill. Hold off.

For me... and if he knows it, your mancrush= overpaying. I am sure he likes having Wright, and your only chance is Albert. This is not overpaying by chance either, he is just getting fair value. He may even pass due to depth at first deeper than third base.

Lend your voice here.

Alright i came up with a possible offer,

I give:
Johan, Martin, Cantu, and Delgado, Chris Young

I get: Wright, Markakis, Slowey, J. Weaver, Molina

any chance?

i think my staff has enough good arms on it to still prosper without santana and slowey and weaver are solid SP's.

Taking the advice of moving Johan and Martin for some OF help is great advice, if i could kill 2 birds with one stone in this deal and get wright and OF help, that would be awesome.

Does it have any chance of gettin accepted?
and no this guy doesnt know i have a mancrush, i havent offered anything to him yet or talked to him about trading for wright. haha
