Time to make some changes

Postby ajgordon13 » Mon May 18, 2009 7:57 pm

As some of you know I am in an 8 team roto style league. HR, RBI, R, H, and SB for hitters, W, K, SV, ERA, and WHIP for pitchers. Players are only available from National League teams. It is an auction and keeper league. I'm in last place right now and my team is honestly not very good so my chances of competing this year are slim to none. With Rickie Weeks going down today, I can no longer avoid the signs that I was not meant to compete this year. I've been thinking of some trade ideas and I want to put together something with one owner for Jimmy Rollins and Carlos Lee or Adam Dunn and I want to put something together with another owner for Emmanuel Burris or Orlando Hudson and Justin Upton. And if I could get some pitching as well that would be great.

My Team

Jason Kendall $1
Carlos Ruiz $2
Lance Berkman $31
Rickie Weeks $13
JJ Hardy $22
Bill Hall $6
Derrek Lee $18
Mike Fontenot $6
Ryan Braun $47
Milton Bradley $2
Jeff Francouer $5
Daniel Murphy $5
Willy Taveras $22
Jordan Schafer $10

Aaron Harang $10
Chris Young $7
Eric Stults $10
Jordan Zimmermann $10
John Lannan $1
Chad Qualls $18
Joel Hanrahan $9
Ryan Madson $1
Juan Gutierrez $10

Brandon Webb $28
Hong-Chih Kuo $2

I'm willing to trade anyone on my team but if I can avoid trading Braun that'd be really nice. Are those good targets to trade for? If you could throw out some possible trades that i could offer that would be much appreciated. I'll help anyone who helps me in return.

I tried to come up with a differnt paskage of players I wanted from each team. I tried to target players are either young cheap prospects or minor leaguers in order to build for next year because this year's team was just too bad to compete. My best trade chips are Ryan Braun, Lance Berkman, and Brandon Webb. After that it's Derrek Lee, Willy Taveras, and JJ Hardy. My roster is listed above.

Option 1

Jay Bruce $10
Lastings Millege $12
Tommy Hanson (Salary will be $10 when activated)

Option 2

Manny Ramirez $38
Matt Gamel $10
Cameron Maybin $10

Option 3

Justin Upton $10
Emmanuel Burriss $10
Colby Rasmus $10

Option 4

Elijah Dukes $8
Wandy Rodriguez $1
Jason Heyward (salary will be $10 when activated)

If you could rate these options in the order you think would help me build the most for next year, and also tell me what you think I would need to offer to get most of them done, that would be great. I'll still help in return.
