Sabathia for Soriano?

Postby JJDM » Fri Apr 24, 2009 10:35 am

Hey all,

I'm currently 2nd place in my 8x6 roto league. The guy in first has, for some reason, decided to unload his starting pitching for OF help.

He's sent out offers to other managers, dangling Dempster and Danks, but his offer to me is CC Sabathia for Alfonso soriano.

Soriano has been pretty hot, so I'm reluctant to take the trade even though sabathia's potential is tempting me.

Here's my team:

C-Posada
1B-A. Gonzalez
2B-Kinsler
3B-Beltre
OF-Soriano, Pence, Granderson
BN-Vlad, Felipe Lopez, Wieters
DL-A.Rod

SP-Oswalt, Harang
RP-Morrow, R. Soriano
P-Ubaldo, Matt Cain, Wandy, Chris Young
BN-David Price
DL-Lackey

pass. You dont need a tier 1 SP, se if you can work something for Danks for less if you really want pitching help. Soriano is was more valuable to your team now than CC would. I think Soriano is going to go off this year, just wait until the ivy turns green at Wrigley, he will have monster numbers.

Keep Soriano. Unless you have a huge need, which you don't, I always take the hitter over the pitcher.

Help if you can

I'd definitely stick w/ Soriano. Although you could use a #1 stud SP, the hit to your offense wouldn't be worth it.

lil help?

Thanks for the advise guys, I turned down the soriano trade.

I'm wondering though, should I consider offering Vlad for CC at this point? Is that insulting the CC owner, or overpaying for CC, I'm not really sure vlad's value this year especially since he's spending the first month on the DL
