I wouldnt do this. May be odd playing a top C at 3B and all but either ride it out with him OR trade Martin to a team that needs a true Catcher for a 3B. I think you would be fine with Doumit. I would say trade Doumit but many people dont realize he was actually a top fantasy catcher last year and might not pay much as he doesnt have the same cache as a Martin.

You could use the OF upgrade. Ask for one of his good OF he has plenty to spare, if your going to trade Rollins. I'd package up 3 of your guys for Chris Davis, Stud OF (maybe holliday?)

Davis represents more value to your team, he could move Dunn ot 1b and not even blink.

No way do I deal a 1st round pick(Rollins) for Chipper "always dinged up" Jones. The other guy better bring a lot better to the table to get the 3rd best SS in fantasy

Yeah, no way. there will be opportunities during the year to make a move if nothing makes sense now. Your team is fine to start and you shouldnt make a bad move to solve a small problem.

Help with mine?
