Help with Sabathia trade (WHIR)

[drunkmonkey]

Should I take this trade?

I get: CC Sabathia, Jorge Posada, Chad Qualls
I send: Victor Martinez, Alex Rios

10 team H2H 5x5 Keeper league (keep 8 players). We start 4 OF, otherwise normal rosters.

My team:
C Victor Martinez
1B Mark Teixeria
2B Brandon Phillips
3B Adrian Beltre
SS JJ Hardy
OF Josh Hamilton
OF Adam Dunn
OF Matt Kemp
OF Justin Upton
UT Alex Rios
BN Ryan Theriot
BN Nolan Reimold
DL Aramis Ramirez

SP Josh Beckett
SP Roy Oswalt
SP John Lackey
SP Carlos Zambrano
SP John Maine
SP Josh Outman
RP Trevor Hoffmann
RP Ryan Franklin
RP Matt Capps
RP Huston Street
RP Carlos Marmol

Yes, it will put me over 5 RPs, and I'll need to deal with that. I offered Victor & Reimold for Sabathia & Posada (to test the waters), and this was his counter. My SP could really use the help, and I'm stacked in OF. Thoughts? WHIR

anyone?

I'm not a huge Rios fan, and although I would hate to give up Victor, you are getting Posada back, who I still think is productive. CC will obviously help and Qualls is a bonus, so I would do it.

Thanks for help on mine.

agree 100%

Thanks. Followup...who do I drop? Outman? Capps?

[woowoo crew]

yes, i think you win in this deal. martinez is on fire, but getting sabathia will help your rotation a lot. as far as who you should drop, i'd say reimold or outman.

I like this deal because you're adding a keeper to your rotation, which you're sorely in need of.

I assume your keepers will be-

Phillips, Kemp, Upton, CC, Teix, Hamilton, ARam, Hardy

[Bea Arthur]

Agreed. I would do that trade to get CC and you have some depth at C.
