Return to Draft, Trade, Keeper and Waivers Questions

I am loving Greinke, but also wonder if his value is at a point where I can get a really good return. Please help me decide if this deal is good enough for Greinke, or if I should try for somebody different (Utley). Will losing Greinke hurt my pitching too much?
The owner offered Beltran straight up for Greinke but I would like to get Cano as well. Sorry its a bit long; but leave a link, I absolutely will return the favor!!!
I give: Greinke; L. Castillo
I get: Beltran; Cano
should i just go Greinke for Utley straight up? (different owner)

I like either trades for you. Your pitching staff is pretty solid and 2B is definitely your weakest position. I think getting both Beltran and Cano would be a fair price for giving up Greinke.

Both deals would be great for you, but I'd make a run at Utley.

Thanks for the help.
Yes, I like both trades since you will still have some great pitching.
Try the Utley trade first,,,, I like that one better

your pitching staff can definitely handle the loss. I actually like both trades, but unlike everyone else i'd go after the beltran/cano deal. Yes, utley is the better player of the 3, but beltran/cano helps you in more areas than just utley. if he declines the beltran/cano deal you can always fall back to the utley deal, which is probably more realistic anyway
thanks for the help with mine

I would try for the Utley trade, although it does leave some risk in your staff (Carpenter staying healthy, Young is unpredictable). Seems your league has smaller benches - what SP are available that you could pick up?
