Good trade for Abreu, but will it help my team? WHIR

Postby Geek » Sun Apr 05, 2009 6:47 pm

5X5 roto, 12 team mixed

I would get:

Bobby Abreu ;-D
Yunel Escobar :-t
Paul Maholm :-?

I would give up:
Hideki Matsui :-o
Felipe Lopez :-)
Frank Francisco ;-D

Roster:
C Ryan Doumit
1b Lance Berkman
2b Dan Uggla
3b Aubrey Huff
SS Jimmy Rollins
OF Nick Markakis
OF Nate McClouth
OF Chris Young
Util: Hideki Matsui
BN: Mike Lowell
BN: Felipe Lopez
BN: Jeremy Hermida

SP: CC Sabathia
SP: Chad Billingsley
SP: Zack Greinke
SP: Ted Lilly
SP: Ubaldo Jimenez
RP: Brian Fuentes
RP: Kerry Wood
RP: Frank Francisco
RP: Scott Downs

This would probably boost my steals, runs, and RBI's, but would hurt in Saves. Am I okay going with just two closers? I don't have much use for Escobar or for Maholm (I like Maholm, but not better than Ubaldo).

I'd do it, and just work the wire for that 3rd closer. I always like to have at least 3 closers in roto.
