Don't do it. Lackey was lit up by the Mariners in his last start while Hoffman and Posada are injury risks due to their age.

IMO you'd be giving up the best two players in this deal. Definitely not a smart move.

Don't do it. I got Braun for Greinke in one league and Lincecum in another.

That is a very bad trade for you.

Don't do this trade! You can do better that that offer. When I traded Grienke, I got back Utley and K-Rod, although that wasn't the full trade. When you are trading away elite players such as Grienke, you need to get elite players in return. they guys you would be getting back are not elite. Plus, Bruce is perhaps the second best player in the deal, so I really don't like this for you................
