Thanks everyone. Can you please explain why you like this trade? ARam might need season ending surgery, and who knows what is wrong with Kazmir...

I personally like Votto better than Hamilton. And Votto has position scarcity on his size.

This is a re-draft league.

Plus with Kuroda, Hanson, and Smoltz taking up space on my roster, and if I took on ARam and Kazmir, that would be 5 guys not playing with 1 DL spot.

If ARam's season is done, the trade would STILL be reasonable...

Kazmir is having a tough time finding his groove. But he throws GAS and has proven himself at the major league level. And I love Josh Hamilton - especially after watching ESPN's "Homecoming" on him. Again, their stats in times where they really count will make this trade worth your while. And if A-Ram can get healthy...well, he's A-Ram.

Any help would be really appreciated! viewtopic.php?&t=387336

I gotta agree -- do it. Hamilton is a great buy-low candidate. Kazmir can turn it around and will be awesome if he does. Aram is a side issue. If you drop Kuroda, Kazmir is a better option anyway. Although I think a lot of Sheffield at this point, he's bound to cool off and Hamilton alone is enough to make up for him and Votto. Aram is a bonus.

Help with mine?

Votto is out of the lineup again tonight, which is making me want to pull the trigger on the trade.

I just need a few more of you to convince me to hit accept!!
