Tade Votto for Carlos Quentin?

Postby SDDECK » Wed Apr 15, 2009 10:28 pm

11 team rotis yahoo league default cats. He needs a 1st baseman. I was thinking trading him Votto for Quentin. Does this make my team better? Is there someone else on his team i should target instead? Getting quentin would overload me on OF. Or should I just stand pat? I like my team but wanted to exploit his need for a 1st baseman.

Jonathan Broxton(LAD - RP)
Mike González(Atl - RP)
John Danks(CWS - SP)
Matt Lindstrom(Fla - RP)
George Sherrill(Bal - RP)
Joba Chamberlain(NYY - SP,RP)
Cole Hamels(Phi - SP)

My team:
Pablo Sandoval(SF - C,1B,3B)
Mark Teixeira(NYY - 1B)

I would def take Quentin over Votto. Not sure he will take that deal but if you can get it done than do it.

i think it's a good deal. however, with all of you 2B eligible guys, i'd go after kinsler. offer votto plus one of your 2B guys like scutaro or bonifacio since he's so hot right now for kinsler. your OF is strong as is. quentin is an awesome player, but kinsler would improve your 2B position. he's on fire.

help me please: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=378857

1B: Konerko

even with Vottos hot start i doubt he would do it .. Quentin has too much power and he would be losing a enough HRs to make him pull the trigger.
