NL-Only Roto - need SBs - Carpenter for who?

Postby jeter2411 » Thu Apr 02, 2009 11:38 am

Okay, so I have probably the seonc best pitching staff with:

Liriano (we are NL + Twins)
Carpenter
C Young
Valverde
Harden
Zito
Glavine
Blanton
Smardijza (with Hudson stashed on the DL)

I am looking to move Carpenter or Young for SBs, who would you target and what would be a fair dtraight up deal. The other guy has:

F Lopez
F Lewis
R Winn
C Dickerson

Any any of these guys a fair deal for either of those pitchers?

Before I'd trade Carpenter, is there anyone on FA worth picking up for alot less?
Schafer for example?

Out of the guys you list, I like Lopez best since he is hitting leadoff, has multiple position eligibility and can still steal bases.

Help me too? viewtopic.php?t=375769

Yeah. Schafer, Bonaficio, Burriss and other steal sources may be out there. I would rather keep Carpenter who is underrated if anything now.

I guess it depends on what you think of Carp and how well you think he'll bounce back from injury. To me, I think his upside is worth slightly more than any of the guys you listed. F. Lopez is probably the best candidate in my mind, though and if you're really in need, he's the guy I'd look at.

Just to update, this is a 14 team NL-Only (NL plus Twins) league and there is NOTHING on the waiver wire. I already have Bonafacio, so I am hopign he will help. Shafer and Burriss are already gone.

Another question, would you move either guy for Bourn?

If you trade for F. Lopez, who would you bench offensively? What if you traded for Bourn? I really don't like Bourn though...would much prefer Lewis or Winn to him.

Probably Brendan Harris, or I would drop Gamel and move Harris into his spot (although I am a Brewer fan and it's a keeper league so I am hopingt o hold onto him)

Yeah, I like Lopez over Harris enough to make a move with Carp. I'm not sold on his resurgence.
