Trade Holliday? WHIR!!!

Trade Holliday/Qualls for Justin Upton/Adam Jones?

I know that I am on the wrong side of a buy low/sell high trade, but Manny is out and this team has been a total disaster. I think that there is a good chance that one of these 2 young OF puts up as good #'s this year as Holliday and that they will both have good value in my league. I am confident that I have enough closer depth (I also believe I can grab closers better than others in my league).

Is this just dumb? If I make this trade should I send Manny out for a decent offer?

Hold tight..Holliday is starting to come around and if you absolutely must bench him you can get a stopgap on waivers (or is Kubel OF in your league?)

That said I guess you COULD try to sell Manny but don't hold your breath for much unless this is a keeper and a team feels they are out this year.

Help?
