Got: Braun, Gave: King Felix & Ludwick - how'd I do?

Postby mcliffy2 » Mon Jun 01, 2009 11:04 am

My league is HtH points and focuses heavily on hitting (in our scoring, only 4 pitchers have 65 pts or more, whereas 48 hitters do).

We only start 4 pitchers, so I figured why not trade my 2nd best pitcher for a top-tier stud at OF. Once healthy, I'm thinking my lineup will be tough to beat.

League is 12-team HtH, points (that favor hitting)
Positions: C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, 3 OF, U, 4 SP, 1 RP

Hitters
C: Inge
1B: Berkeman
2B: Utley
SS: Hairston (J. Reyes DL)
3B: Branyon (A. Ramirez DL)
OF: Soriano, Braun, Kemp
U: Konerko
RES: Swisher, Duncan, Dukes
DL: A Gordon, R Harden, Reyes, Ramirez

Pitching
SP (start 4): Verlander, J-Weaver, Wainwright, Duke, Price, Volstad, C-Young, Zito, Millwood, C-Richard, J-Happ, (Harden DL)
RP (start 1): H Bell, Aardsma

I think you made out really good. Braun is a huge boost to any team, Felix plus Ludwick no big loss IMO. good job

Thanks, I felt like it was a good deal, at least by the rule of getting the best player in the trade. Now if I can get healthy, my team should catch up to the guy with Santana and Greinke who has been steamrolling....crossing my fingers my lineup come time for the playoffs will be:

C: Inge
1B: Berkman
2B: Utley
SS: Reyes
3B: A-Ram
OF: Braun
OF: Soriano
OF: Kemp
U: Konerko/Branyon/Swisher
