I will put it this way...

Losing Kinsler :-t
Losing Haren :-t

Getting crawford ;-D ;-D
Getting J. Johnson ;-D

2 :-t and 3 :-t makes it a good trade. If Rollins and Verlander even sniff what is normal for them... ;-D ;-D ;-D :-)

wow you got murdered on this trade Ramirez is garbage, and Rollins is underperforming, Kinsler is the best 2b in baseball and Haren and Price have better potential season wide than Johnson and Verlander, and Crawford is okay until he gets injured the killers here were Kinsler and Cruz.

help with mine?

Yeah horrible trade for you. Rollins and alexei have been horrible this year. Crawford has been great but so has Cruz. Cruz has more power and still gets some steals so definitely a downgrade. Verlander has been great, but Haren is a top 10 pitcher. Price's last start was very encouraging and I think he's going to have a great year.

I don't like the deal for you. I like Crawford, but he provides speed numbers, no power. Plus, you take a nice hit in starting pitching.

Thanks for the input. It's actually not one of my main leagues and if it were, I probably wouldn't have made the deal. Just trying to mix things up. If Alexei (who's been playing better) and Rollins turns things around I think it will be a good deal. This is probably a trade that will take some time to figure if it's a good one or not.

ya i dont think its that bad of a trade. i prefer the 2 pithchers youre getting. Haren usually tanks in the 2nd half. I guess a lot depends on Rollins and if he finally bounces back. Big IF lol

Mine please if you can:
