need help with this trade offer WHIR

Postby ratking20 » Fri Apr 24, 2009 9:40 pm

11 team 6x6 roto
my team is in a early hole and looks like things wont change.
im behind in saves, power, and stolen bases. but dominant in other pitching categories.
i traded away cole hamels for carlos pena. i took a shot with hamels maybe being hurt but as long as pena hits homers like he does ill be happy. now ive been offered manuel corpas and felipe lopez for my harang and david price. on paper it looks in his favor but i cant get anyone to give up any closers at all. i have polanco as my only 2nd baseman and heres my staff (1300 inning limit)
sp johan santana
sp halladay
sp shields
sp cain
sp dempster
sp harang
sp scherzer
sp price
rp valverde
rp dotel( i only have one starting closer)

i am gonna counter and try to get a diff closer, he has corpas, broxton, lindstrom, bell

how unfair is the trade he offered?

The trade really isn't that bad as is. Counter by asking for Bell.

Return the favor plz - viewtopic.php?t=380784

I wouldn't do this trade. I think Harang will actually have a nice year and Price is going to be dominant. Corpas doesn't have the closers job for sure yet and might not hold it all year and Lopez is just average. I would pass.

please help

You can always get saves off the waiver wire. Is Downs owned? He'll be closing for a while in Toronto. I'd try and get a better closer than those guys.

Heres mine

let me tell u, every closer is gone. every rp that might get a chance to take over the closer role if someone screws up is gone too. downs had been gone for a while. frasor has been gone for a few days. all the really good setup men are gone too. and we dont have holds in our 6x6 league
