I am in a 16 team h2h and am scared by Dice K so I think I need a 3rd pitcher. So would you trade Chone for Lackey? Or would he not even consider it? Thanks again for the help.

Honestly I would probably do it, but you will be hurting on SBs unless you give Taveras some more time playing. Figgins isn't playing too well, but I am sure he will somewhat turn it around. However, even at his best he isn't a GREAT player. If Lackey pitches pretty good, and CLOSE to his best, he is a pretty dang good pitcher.
I would do it.

Help?

Would I be better off Trying to Trade Hill for more?

i would do it. yes, you will be hurting for SB, but you can always pick those types of guys off the waiver wire, and figgins is really only a 1-2 (runs scored is ok but not as good as it should be b/c he doesn't get on base enough) category guy these days. davis should turn it around, and lackey is a beast. he probably won't accept it b/c he already has a ton of speed, but give it a try anyways, at least let him know you're interested in lackey and maybe you can work something out.
