Trade too lopsided?

Postby kong_jr. » Fri May 15, 2009 2:38 am

it's a 5x5 Yahoo Roto league.

The teams are #3 and #4 in the standings.

#3 gives:
Verlander and Peavy

#4 gives:
F-Rod
Nolasco
DL: Webb

To me it seems #3 has been looking for another closer for a while ... but this trade just seems way too lopsided.

Is this something I should raise a concern about?

#3's definitely buying low, but I dont think its anything to raise a big stink about. Webb's on his way back and Nolasco could very well turn it around, although he is currently sucking golf balls through a garden hose.

If you have to ask, the answer is "no," it's not too lopsided.

Long term, that trade has the potential to benefit both teams.

Thanks ... that's why I asked. My judgment is a bit clouded with the fact that one team owner I don't particularly like. I don't want to raise a stink because of my poor bias. ;-)
