Snider for Andrus - Dynasty

Postby runxc3200 » Sat Mar 28, 2009 7:09 am

Hey Guys - 10 Team Dynasty 6x6 OBP and Holds.

Got an offer out for a minor league swap and I'm not sure what to do. My roster is as follows:

Ryan Doumit
Albert Pujols
Alexei Ramirez
David Wright
Troy Tulowitzki
Dan Uggla
Lance Berkman
Garrett Atkins
Andre Ethier
Corey Hart
Nick Markakis
Carlos Delgado
James Loney
Hideki Matsui
Daniel Murphy

PITCHERS
Mike Gonzalez
Jake Peavy
Jon Lester
Chad Billingsley
A.J. Burnett
Javier Vazquez
Jonathan Broxton
Joe Nathan
Heath Bell
Clay Buchholz
Scot Shields
Huston Street

We also have a farm team which consists of:

Maybin
McCutchen
Travis Snider
Bumgardner
Bowden


We play CI/MI and 2 UTL - I made an offer to another team to do Travis Snider for Elvis Andrus. I'm trying to diversify my team a bit with this trade, as I have Maybin, McCutchen and Murphy all as young outfielders, let alone Hart, Markakis and Ethier. I know Snider isn't the best defender so he could eventually wind up only being a DH.

Any help on this? WHIR

Snider is way too talented as a hitter in the long run to trade for him. I see Andrus as a Juan Pierre or Willy Taveras at shortstop. Murphy would be worth it.

I'm sorry, but this is a bad idea, man. I understand why you'd want him: those steals and the SS eligibility, but the other poster's right about thinking Murphy first.

If it's Snider who must go, go for a Beckham or keep him.

Keep Snider.

Don't worry about Snider DH'ing. He isn't the best defender, but he should still play the OF every now and then and will likely not lose his OF eligibility.
