Granderson or B.J. Upton

Postby perlick29 » Tue May 19, 2009 4:46 pm

Chad Billingsley is being highly sought after. I turned down a trade that would have me send Billingsley away for Ellsbury.

I have three other possibilities now on the table:

Would you trade Billingsley for BJ Upton or Curtis Granderson, or how about Carlos Lee? Here's my roster again:

C B. Molina (SF - C)
1B A. Dunn (WAS – 1B, OF)
2B A. Hill (TOR – 2B)
3B M.Cabrera (DET - 1B, 3B)
SS J. Reyes (NYM - SS)
OF K. Morales (LAA – 1B,OF)
OF H. Pence (HOU - OF)
OF V. Wells (TOR - OF)
Util H. Matsui (NYY – OF)
BN E. Dukes (WAS - OF)
BN G. Sheffield (NYM - OF)


SP Z. Greinke (KC - SP)
SP C. Billingsley (LAD – SP)
RP M. Gonzalez (ATL - RP)
RP B. Fuentes (LAA - RP)
P C.J. Wilson (TEX - RP)
P U. Jimenez (COL - SP)
P C. Marmol (CHC - RP)
BN E. Jackson (DET – SP)
BN J. Johnson (BAL – RP)
BN D. Bush (MIL – SP)
BN M. Garza (TB - SP)

Thanks for your help.

Forget the man crush. I drop what I'm doing to watch Zack Greinke pitch.

With Reyes already on your team Billingsley for Lee would be your best move. I'd still try to shop Garza instead.

If you're set on trading Bills, I would only do it for Carlos Lee on that list.

I'm a big fan of offense. Getting someone who impacts your team everyday other than once or twice per week will have a greater impact. That being said I love Bills. He had done great so far and has put up great numbers the last few years.

If this was me I would package Bills/Moralas or Matsui for Lee and a pitcher of his. That would be a great deal for you exp if he is sold on Bills doing what he has been in every start.
