Trade my BRAUN for MORNEAU?

Postby Maris09 » Tue May 26, 2009 10:21 pm

I feel like I have a lot of OF options, and am having to leave decent options on the bench each day.

12 team H2H, non-keeper, 6x6 (with extra CATs being OPS and K/9)

C- Mauer
1B- Votto
2B- F.Lopez
3B- MCabrera (traded Greinke/C.Blake for him)
SS- Peralta
CI- Beltre
MI -Alexei
OF- Braun
OF- Rios
OF- Ethier
OF- Kubel
UT- Pierre
BN- Cuddyer
BN- N.Morgan
BN- Crisp

SP- Lincecum
SP- Carpenter
SP- Billingsly
SP- Wainwright
SP- Bedard
SP- Baker
RP- Soria
RP- Francisco
RP- Marmol
RP- Zumaya

Thanks,
Will try to help back

No way. Braun will be superior or even to Morneau in every category. With Votto at first base, I really don't see a pressing need for help in that slot.

I was thinking more like Beltre sucks so I could put Morneau or Votto at CI, and also be able to then get one of my bench OF into the lineup.

If you're going to deal Braun, I'd rather you try and get Mark T, Wright, or A-rod. They are on better offense, imo. Justin is awesome, but I think A-rod and Tex can net you more in the future if you decide to deal him. Braun should be able to land you any player besides Pujols and Han-Ram. Wright might be the only exception.

I like the deal and I like what you're trying to do. Makes sense. Since Braun might be better pound-for-pound you might want to see if you can throw another name in to get one back. Even without it I think you take the slight downgrade in overall talent to put a better lineup out there.

I wouldn't do this. Although Morneau is doing great I don't think this helps you very much.

Thanks for the help. I was able to get Teixeira for him which I do think help my overall lineup. Get to enjoy that bandbox now. :-D
