Ok I realize that this trade is a no brainer. The real question is what to do with Bruce.

i would try packaging him with an arm like Dice-K or Maine to get a big upgrade at SP... or even combo him with Mark Reynolds hot start (average wise) and try to snag an underachieving 3B, or maybe hit a steal and snag a Rollins and a RP by comboing Bruce/Jeter?

help me out...

Trade Bruce and a hot Masterson for an upgrade at starting pitcher. Target a buy low guy like Liriano or Slowey. The back end of your rotation is extremely weak...I would also look to your waiver wire for one-for-one upgrades you can make there.

Deff. do this deal, gonna make ur OF way better and you couldn't ask for better value in return for Wood. As far as who to deal and for whom it's really hard to say w/out looking at everyone in ur league's lineups... but I'm a big fan of Capps, might not get u 30 saves but the Pirates do play in a lot of close ballgames and his stuff is some of the best out there. Hope this helps a little, thanx for the help on mine.

I love this deal for you.

Even if Wood doesn't get hurt, you can try to pick up another closer (albeit, probably not as good) along the way.
Looking forward to back to back championships in 2011!
