believe it or not, only in a point based league like yours, would i do this trade. Pull the trigger. IN the end you will have more points. In roto or head to head i would not. Ortiz looks real bad and him and hamiliton are k kings in this. The 2 guys u are getting have good eyes.

Ortiz does have basically no value now but you're not getting a big asset back by coupling him with Josh Hamilton just to get rid of him. Maggs has been just as terrible and you don't make big trades to acquire Adam LaRoche as the centerpiece.

I wouldn't do this trade at all, Maggs has 3 extra base hits this year (not a good sign) and A. Laroche is not a big enough asset in return for Hamilton. I would either receive a better 1B in the deal or hold onto Ortiz and Hamilton and hope they have monster second halfs

Hold onto what you got, that's serious disrespect to you.

[socceryank]

No way should you do that deal.

[gbill2004]

For some comparison - I just traded Ortiz and Juan Cruz for Paul Maholm (I got Maholm). I'm pretty happy with the value I got for Maholm.

[pappymojo]

No way am I giving up on Hamilton.

[tantrix1969]

agree with most above-no way you do this trade-Hamilton is too good
