Pence/Mauer/Volquez for Victorino/Harden/Young(SP)

Postby metsfan12 » Fri Apr 10, 2009 1:12 pm

How does that trade look from a value perspective? I am trying to add speed so it helps me out getting Kemp for Pence. I have Bengie Molina as my catcher so I can afford to give up Mauer. Will Harden/Young outpitch Volquez? I think they will even with the injury concerns to both. Combined they should get 200+IP and put up better ratios than Volquez with similar K's and wins.

It looks good from a value perspective since you're getting the best outfielder and the two best starting pitchers, and Mauer's value has taken a hit because of his injuries.

I think this is a great trade for you. Young is better than Volquez, Harden healthy will be more useful than Mauer and I love Kemp's upside. Well done!

What if it is Victorino instead of Kemp?

I'd still go with the deal even if you get Victorino instead of Kemp. I like the pitching swing for you.

please help
