my Kinsler for his Beltran/Figgins, WHIR!

Postby slagbot » Mon May 04, 2009 1:08 am

12 team roto, TONS of stat cats. i won last year and currently lead by 28 pts. just dealt inge/lilly/volquez/nick johnson for prince fielder/scott kazmir and was just offered this trade, which looks pretty good...but i do love having kinsler, and it may not be good enough. keeper league, we'll keep 3 after this year (longo and hanley were my keepers coming into this year). thoughts?

stats: R, H, 2B, 3B, HR, SB, BB, Avg, A, OBP, Slg, OPS, Fpct, W, Sv, Hld, ERA, WHIP, K/9 NH, PG, CG, SHO, QS

C - Joe Mauer
1B - Prince Fielder
2B - Ian Kinsler
SS - Hanley Ramirez
3B - Evan Longoria
OF - Torii Hunter, Matt Holliday, Denard Span
Util/Bench - Aubrey Huff (1B, 3B), Matt Laporta (1B, OF), Mike Fontenot (2B, 3B)

SP - Roy Halladay, Scott Kazmir, Josh Johnson, Chris Volstad
RP - Brian Fuentes, Chad Qualls, Troy Percival, Ramon Ramirez, Dan Wheeler, Michael Wuertz
DL - Ervin Santana

i'm pretty happy where i am, but my outfield is lacking. it's hard conceiving of unloading kinsler, but beltran would upgrade my OF plenty.

WHIR if you leave a link! thanks for your input.

I'd keep Kinsler. He, Longoria, and Hanley will be a sweet keeper trio for you for years to come. ;-D

Thanks for mine

Easy rejection, Kinsler healthy is a top 10-12 player
Figgins offers nothing but steals at this point
Kinsler >>>> Beltran

You do need to upgrade your OF and add 1 more solid bat there
