12 team 2 catchers? that really really sucks lol.

This is a tough one cause Upton is struggling, but I don't think Lester is going to give you much this year. Wieters is sick but keep this on the table and counter asking for a little bit better pitcher.

Thanks for the help.

I was targeting Cliff Lee from him, or even AJ Burnett but he is insisting Lester.

If it's either of those 2, then does it make the deal an automatic? or still kinda iffy????


Thanks for the help

If you can get Burnett or Lee I would do it. But I wouldn't do it for Lester.

please help

I would do this. Wieters will do wonders in a 2 catcher league and you have solid OF depth. If you can get Burnett or Lee then that would be a little better, but I would take this as is.

Help?

I think you can do a bit better. Jon Lester is the MAN, and is a must-have in every keeper league I'm in. But in a 1-year, H2H...I'm not really feeling it from him this year. I could be wrong, but I'm not sure. And Upton *has* to pick it up - he's not gonna finish the year like this...I think he'll bat at least 275 the rest of the way, with plenty of SB and Runs. I wouldn't do it.
