Hey guys......I put Braun on the market in my league and stated that I wanted speed/stolen bases in return. I have been offered 2 different trades by the same guy/team......Liriano/Kinsler or Liriano/Rollins for Braun/Peavy.
I was laso offered Sizemore for Braun straight up.
Adding Rollins or Kinsler will help with speed and runs. I could plug Hawpe or Ibanez in the outfield. I really am not sure on theses offers.
Advice please! WHIR!!!!
My team is below:
H2H 5x5 C: Posada 1B: Berkman 2B: Kendrick 3B: Atkins OF: Braun, Crawford, Quentin Util: Ortiz BN: Hawpe, Beltre, Ibanez, Kelly Johnson SP: Kazmir, Peavy, Danks, Greinike, Chris Young RP: J. Soria, B.J. Ryan BN: E. Santana, J. Motte
I'm not paying top dollar for Liriano after he was unspectacular last year in his return. Sizemore for Braun is just about a tie; it depends on if you feel you need more stolen bases or a bit more power.
Hey there, thanks for help with team! As for this possible trade, I would be careful with Liriano as well, and try to avoid trading Peavy, (unless you are getting back Johan Santana, Sabathia, or Lincecum.) I would try and try Braun straight up for Rollins, that is a very fair deal if the person you are trading with needs power, but I also agree with the previous poster, Sizemore for Braun would be a great deal for you. Good luck!
Let's start with this Premise...Braun is the best palyer in either deal.
I happen to be very high on Liriano and a little down on Peavy, so I'd actually prefer Liriano. However, Peavy's whether I am right or wrong, Peavy's perceived value is much higher than Liriano's
With that said Braun>Kinsler or Rollins (they are no slouches, btu Brain is better) Peavy>Liriano
id trade braun for either kinsler, rollins or sizemore straight up depending on your preference all are first rounders essentially so you shouldnt have to be throwing in a pitcher upgrade as well
