J. Mauer for Brandon Phillips?

[roundBallJef]

We are at the end of making pre-draft trades to establish keepers. Right now, I only have Polanco at 2nd. I have in reserve R. Doumit and C. Iannetta at catcher.

I was thinking of offering my J. Mauer and B. Fuentes ( who would not be one of my keepers, yes, we can trade non-keepers until we declare, a rule I don't like) for his Brandon Phillips. Is that a good deal for me, and if so, which of the two other catchers would you keep?

Thanks, WHIR

I def. Like this deal. Mauer is fantastic at a thin position but so is brandon phillips (just with a bit less injury concern) I would keep Doumit after that trade

Phillips is top 3 round material. Mauer more like late 4th 5th round.

If you can get someone to agree to that go for it.

Man if that guy is dumb enough to do it you got to.

Iannetta is going to have a good year if not better with more AB's. Mauer is hurt who knows whats going to happen with him this season, Phillips is 20-20 guy last year and 30-30 the year before. Christ this is a no brainer.

Iannetta and Doumit are fine options at catcher, while Brandon Phillips is a huge upgrade over Polanco.

I would absolutely make this trade if someone is interested

Yes with other good options at catcher that is a steal for you.

Who are your other keepers? Iannetta represents good value. If you have a strong set of other keepers and no other options you could keep em both.

Do the deal for sure and keep Doumit.

please help
