I am thinking of dealing Sizemore/ Carlos Lee for Braun/Crawford....what do you think? I would like to lose Sizemore's shaky average, plus gain Crawfords steals, I would be upgrading Braun>Lee. The other owner (the guy with Braun/Crawford,) also has Furcal, I could really use him at SS, the problem is who could I deal in order to acquire him as well? THANKS!!!! WHIR 100%

Unfortunately, I don't think losing Hamels is a good idea with your group of guys.
The other trade imbalanced in the other guys favor.
Try doing something simpler, maybe, if all you want to do is upgrade AVG.

I agree losing Hamels would be a big hit for my pitching staff. I was thinking of getting Tulow, the guy wants Dye and Hill so I am trying to find another player on his team I could get back. My only real options are Fowler, Hideki Matsui, Mark Reynolds, or by some miracle Votto.

I'd do either deal honestly. You're getting the best player in either scnerio, and youre covering everything you lose. Plus, i don't think Hamels quite has it this year. First time with high innings last year, a lot of injuries early on, a missed spring training is a dangerous combination.
Heres mine!

Hey man, I'd take the Braun/Crawford/Furcal side of the deal in either scanario. So if you can make it happen I would tend to agree with the first guy in that losing Hamels will really damage your pitching, so try offering Sizemore and Upton and see if he buys high on them both. Good Luck.

I think if I dealt both Sizemore and Upton I would lose too many stolen bases.
