MY Mourneau for Kinsler & TBD ? WHIR

Postby kevinbaseballer » Thu May 21, 2009 9:40 am

Okay its a 10X10 H2h Yahoo League. I'm not sure I need Kinsler but here is what I was offered:

My Mourneau for his Kinsler/Derek Lee.

I don't need Lee but I told him he offer me an SP and I'd consider it.
His SP: Buehrle, Lilly, Cook, Oswalt, Lee, Beckett

I have a waiver to drop Wakefield and pick up Loney who was just dropped as well. I can move Dunn to my starting 1st

The Kekambas:
C: McCann
1: Mourneau, Votto
2: Pedroia
3: Wright
SS: Stephen Drew, Marco Scutaro
OF: Hart, Hamilton, McClouth, Dunn
U: DeRosa
Bench/DL: Weiters, Smoltz
P: Harang, Burnett,Nolasco, Garza, Maholm, Myers, Johnson, Baker, Wakefield
C: Franklin, Downs, Aardsma

yes you do that and look back....no matter who that 2nd guy is that your getting. kinsler has much higher potential than morneau and kinsler plays 2nd. it seems like the kinsler manager is panicing a little and selling him much lower than what his true value is because he is in a bit of slump. go grab kinsler, and if you really don't feel a need for having pedroia and kinsler than wait til kinsler starts mashing again (which will happen...he is hitting the ball well right now but he is just getting unlucky with where they fall and he has been the victim of hits being robbed from him by great defensive plays this past week) and you'll be able to sell him for much, much more than morneau.

Yeah, I'll take Kinsler every time over Morneau. Morneua is potentiall a top 3-5 player. Who cares waht else you would get. I would drop Baker.

You don't need Lee or Loney. I would ask for Kinsler and an SP like Lilly.

Then I would drop Wakefield.

Also after the trade i would try and package Pedroia or Kinsler and another player for a top SS or OF.

Help please

Pull the triiger as soon as possible. Kinsler is a complete stud and can do everything that Mourneau can. Who cares who else you get in the deal. Good luck. Help with mine?

Sure the fact that Kinsler plays 2b means he has more overall value ut it doesn't mean that on this guy's team. he has Pedroia and Votto as the other guys. Votto is having issues with dizziness or something isn't he? Either way, the positon eligibility really doesn't mean much on this guy's team unless he can flip Kinsler to someone that needs a 2b. So forgetting positions, Kinsler and Morneau are relatively close and it comes down to whether you need power/RBIS or a top of the order/speed guy more. I am guessing by looking at your team quickly that you could you a runs corer more than a driver in of runs. You should definitely examine your options to flip one of your 2b first though. Maybe you can trade Pedroia straight up for a top 5 SP. That might change what you want in the Kinsler trade. EIther way, I agree you should not wait too long. It would help if you said what the 10x10 is.
