I think you can do better and you don't need to make the deal, so hold off for now. Soria and Ramirez have too much upside and Kaz scares me with his various ailments.
please help...

I guess I'm in the minority, but I say pull the trigger. I honestly like Tulo more then Ramirez, and given that you have Roberts at 2B, the fact Ramirez holds 2B eligibility doesn't mean squat for you. I also think the added categories make Ramirez less valuable then in a standard 5x5. As much as I like Soria, your closers are fine, and I think the injury risk for Kazmir isn't great enough that I'd rather have a top shelf closer then him. So for me the trade looks like:
Tulo>Ramirez
Kazmir>Soria
Obviously all trades have their risks, but I like this for you a lot. Help with mine please?

I agree with B-Chad for the most part here. I think it is made a good deal because of the extra stat categories. I also believe that Ramirez, if he is better in 2009 than Tulo, won't be better by a wide margin. Also, I absolutely prefer SP over RP. Kazmir might not have as many innings as most, but I fully believe he is worth more in this league than Soria
