Jose Reyes straight up for Teixera

[Anvil]

I'm getting Reyes, do I accept this offer?

Do you have the power to lose Teixera and do you need the speed that Reyes is giving you? All things being equal I take that, but more information on your end may help give a better answer.

Help with mine? http://www.fantasybaseballcafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=386101

my hitting is as follows (10-team keeper):

C-Victor Martinez
1B-Lance Berkman
2B-Chase Utley
3B-Casey Blake
SS-Jimmy Rollins
IF-Mark Teixera
LF-Carlos Quentin
CF-Grady Sizemore
RF-Magglio Ordonez
OF-Nate McLouth
Util-Curtis Granderson

I take it you are losing SBs so this is the reason for the move. If I am you I see first if you can get any interest going for Rollins. I would be making this move for down the road moving Rollins so you can put Reyes in your SS spot and filling back in the IF spot with another hitter comparable to Teixera which I think can be done once Rollins show some signs of life. If that happens then you have upgraded your team.

Does he have a decent power bat at RF? If so I'd try to frame the deal as a 2-2 and also include Maggs for his RF.

[Anvil]

nope, he has denard span, who he would also offer me, so it would be reyes and span for teixera

I'd try to trade Tex for a 3B. Tex + C. Blake for Wright?

[dannahann]

I think in that case you'd be severely hurting your power to do the deal. Maggs is a minus power bat at his position and Quentin's foot could keep him out for who knows how long. Berkman isn't as reliable as in the past either. Tex is your surest bet to contend in the power production cats. Who knows how much running Reyes will do short term (or even if his recent leg problems might portend a DL stint?). I wouldn't do the trade unless you recieve a bopper back, how about upgrading Blake? Can he do that?
