Some last minute trades have lead to a snowball effect in our league... I have some deals that seem likely to fall into place. What do you all think?

1st deal: Michael Young, Gallardo, V-Mart, and a pick (a 2nd 15th rounder obtained from another team) for Rollins, Iannetta and Ludwick/Marmol (I'd want Ludwick)?

2nd deal: Gallardo, Michael Young and a pick (a 2nd 15th rounder obtained from another team) for Rollins? (I'd then likely keep Alex Gordon or Huff - pick one?)

3rd deal: V-mart for Ludwick and a 15th round pick OR (Adding in my Vitters for Lars Anderson)

As for my keepers, I'll break them into tiers in order to sort them out. Right now I'm thinking I'll keep the 1st two tiers:
1st Tier: Johan Santana, Carlos Beltran, Corey Hart, Adam Dunn, Joe Nathan
2nd Tier: V-Mart, Joakim Soria, Yovanni Gallardo, Zach Greinke, Michael Young
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3rd Tier: Aubrey Huff, Alex Gordon

As for minor leaguers, I only get to keep 5. My thoughts are keeping them in the following order:
1) Colby Rasmus (OF-Stl)
2) Matt LaPorta (1B-Cle)
3) Neftali Feliz (SP-Tex)
4) Josh Vitters (3B-ChiNL)
5) Michael Bowden (SP-Bos)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
6) Yusmeiro Petit (SP-Ari)
