Monster A-Rod,Youk,Peavy,Oswalt, Grenke trade

Postby cwhitty » Sun May 03, 2009 3:15 pm

In a vacuum:
I give A-Rod, Greinke, Carpenter & Nathan
I get: Youkilis, Peavy, Oswalt, Jurrjens, & Jose Lopez. Lopez is just a throw-in.

Do this?

It's a pretty nice offer but I would be inclined to decline. I would wait and see what ARod does before dealing him away.

I don't like it. You're buying Youkilis high and not getting enough in return for A-Rod.

Return the favor plz - viewtopic.php?t=382693

I also would be way to curious as to if Arod is going to go off upon returning that its way to tempting to hold on to him. What league is it cbs yahooo??

It's hard to say without seeing your closers but I don't think you should do either of the deals. I really believe Grienke is going to be a bug stud this year! Nathan is an elite closer and I wouldn't deal him unless you have anither stud closer on your team. I would just deal A-Rod for a hot Youk. Your are buying high on Youk. Stand Pat!

Please help!

Don't do it. Greinke is in for a MONSTER season. A-Rod should be good to go soon!

i'd keep greinke and ARod. i hate ARod and have a no-wankees rule on my team (which has worked out just fine for me) so i'd be trying to deal him, but you can do better.
