Trade is Soria, Santana, and Granderson for Lincecum... Thoughts?

Also, he has Brandon Webb and Cliff Lee, but he rejected by Granderson and Santana for Webb and counteroffered with this

i said no at first but then really looked at that, IF santana comes back in a big way you get burned, but thats a huge IF...i would actually do this trade, its really Soria/Granderson for Lincy i would do that, you have some valid plugins for your OF where as your SP are killing for help... you gain more then you loose, whats available as far as OF on the WW and RP?

help me out...

It's a very tempting offer since you could really use an ace like Lincecum to replace Santana, who knows how he will rebound from his injury. You would use Brian Wilson to take Soria's place but the issue is with the loss of Granderson. Your outfield was already pretty weak even with him so you are going to take a major hit. However, when Arod comes back I would trade Atkins for an outfielder and that should help you out. I'm still not sure I would make the deal though, I think you could trade Soria, Santana, and Granderson and pick up a pretty solid starter plus you could also get an outfielder, (or maybe get 2 starters back or a starter and a closer.) You have options just make sure you don't get the short end of the stick.

Help with mine?

I don't know, Granderson is really your only reliable outfielder, so i'd try to downgrade it to bradley

was this offered to you? or you offering this? if he offered it, then you know he's okay with getting 3 for 1, but if this is your initial offer, sometimes guys dont like the quantity for quality, so you may want to make it a 2 for 1

thanks for the help with mine

Your pitching is really weak, but you are gonna have to give up alot for Lince.
Its a tough trade but a trade you need to make.
