should i counter this trade?

Postby dubstar » Sun Apr 26, 2009 11:41 am

i put some players on the block for a SP after the news of Webb being shut down for 6 weeks, which means a long time without him. a guy notorious for sending crappy offers sent his Floyd for my M Young. should i counter for any of his other pitchers? i know young isnt going to out up astounding numbers, but he is ranked way higher than floyd right now.

You could probably land Nolasco or Volquez for Young. His SP aren't that great and he doesn't have many to choose from.

just read that S drew is going on the DL so that means if i traded young right now i wouldnt have a SS. unless i DL'ed drew and picked up one.

so my options are:

trade young, dl drew and pitck up: cabrera, greene, theriot, peralta, hardy, renteria at SS

or dont do the trade, DL drew and pick up a SP: pettitte, wakefield, bannister, looper, braden, masterson, bush, hampton

Yeah, just keep Young then. You have a solid core of SP even with Webb on the DL.
