My Manny -for- Lincecum?

Postby Maris09 » Mon Mar 23, 2009 12:38 pm

I usually don't take pitchers early, so trading my Round 2 bat for a pitcher isn't something I normally do, but I've overloaded my OF a bit and am mulling this trade over.
Trade: My Manny for Lincecum?

ROSTER:

C Mauer
1B Votto
2B Alexei
3B Beltre
SS Peralta
CI Zimmerman
MI K.Greene
OF Braun
OF Manny
OF Holliday
OF Rios
UT Ethier
BN Crisp
BN Lowell

SP Billingsly
SP Wainwright
SP Carpenter
SP Greinke
RP Soria
RP Francisco
P Lyon
P Corpas
P Kuo
BN Bedard
BN Slowey

I would accept. This move greatly improves your pitching staff and you have excellent depth in OF.

Lincecum will end the year much closer to a 1st round pick than Manny will I think. Make the deal

I'd do this trade.

Perhaps you might want to consider trading Manny for a better CI?

Interesting you say that, I'm also tryig to work a deal for MCab.

My Matt Holliday & Zach Greinke for MCab. (Adding Lincecum would obviously help lessen the impact of losing Greinke, however making BOTH of these deals would leave me without BOTH Manny and Holliday.)

If that's the case I'd keep Manny and trade Holliday and Greinke for M. Cab. But see if the other manager will give you a SP to even it out.

An OF of Ethier, Braun, Rios is still damn good man.

I think I'd do both and grab some prospects or rebound guys off the ww, post ww OF, SP, RP, and CI please (and any other prospects).

I'd do both for sure. Getting MCab and TImmy is better than having Manny and Holliday in my opinion.

please help
