Holliday/Parra for Burrell/Shields

Postby hett2333 » Mon Apr 27, 2009 7:32 am

In a 12 team mixed, h2h points league, would you move Pat Burrell and James Shields for Matt Holliday and Manny Parra?

Youre buying low on Holliday. His numbers wont be as good as Colorado, but he will be better than this. If the other owner will take a trade like that, now, while Matts value is lowest, go for it.

Help me?

Don't know who you will be getting??

If you have Parra, he should be dropped
Keep holliday, even if he doesnt put up GREAT first half numbers, he will get traded to a contender anyway..

If you have burrell, yes he will get 25 homers, but his avg will kill you
Shields is solid..

Deal doesnt make sense...If you have parra, just drop and keep holliday,if you have shields, dont do trade, and look to move burrell for a team need.

help me out

I said I would be moving Burrell and Shields...I would hold onto parra because we have deep benches, and in a 12 team weekly h2h points league, if he can turn it around I'd start him on 2 start weeks...I think Holliday is definately a big upgrade over Burrell, so I'm giving up shields to gain the best player in the deal (in my opinion). My staff is definately my strength so I'm looking to improve my bats...

Parra is a throw in to me..check WW...If WW is good then, try to package shields and burrell for another bat, holliday is fine though, just dont like parra IMO

I'm completely aware Parra is nothing more than a throw in, the deal is basically Holliday for Burrell and Shields? My question is there a big enough difference between the two to justify giving up shields? my staff is pretty deep, which is why I'd be willing to overpay...

I think just Shields for Holliday is a fair trade -top 15 OF for top 15 SP. You don't need to throw in Burrell.

Help with mine? viewtopic.php?f=26&t=381278

Unfortunately I don't think any owner would deal Holliday for Shields straight up...
