Longoria for Reyes or Kinsler plus...WHIR

Postby Coachsays » Thu Jun 04, 2009 8:34 am

I have been offered a pretty solid deal that is going to be pretty difficult to pass up.

My Longoria for his Reyes or Kinsler + Chipper (although he's willing to talk other players) + one SP (my choice of Bedard/F. Hernandez/Zambrano/Smoltz)

So a three part question...

I'm definitely leaning towards Reyes over Kinsler. Thoughts?

I'm don't know about Chipper but I will need a 3b. Or should I pick up Lowell on waivers and target someone else?

Which one of these starters would be the best? I'm leaning toward F. Hernandez ...but I'm a leary of his second halfs. Maybe Bedard.

6x6 (R, HR, RBI, AVG, OPS, SB, IP, W, SV, K, ERA, WHIP)
10 team Head to Head league (1st season)
4 keepers per season

C Wieters
1B Howard
2B Uggla
3B Longoria
SS Tulowitzki
OF Sheffield
OF Victorino
OF Ellsbury
Util Helton
Ben Reimold
Ben A. Cabrera
DL Quentin
DL Ianetta

SP Peavy
SP Hamels

Yeah, that's a tough deal to pick up. He's offering a lot. I would grab Reyes, Chipper and Bedard.

I do like Lowell though, so it might be worth flipping Chipper in a trade for a better 2bman and grabbing him for third.

Nice deal though!

Help if you can?

That is a solid deal to pass on...

Reyes would definitely be an upgrade over Tulowitzki. I'd grab Reyes, pick up Lowell so another player other than Chipper, and Bedard

Help with mine? http://www.fantasybaseballcafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=388535

I almost think you have to do this deal. the upgrade from Tulo to Reyes is huge. Also, IF Chipper stays healthy, he's still an above average 3B, + you get an above average SP to boot (I like Hernandez as an upside SP BTW).

thanks for helping with mine

I made two trades involving Reyes. In one league I traded Reyes for Fielder, Uggla and Choo. So far that one has been a winner. In the other I received Reyes and Derrick Lee for Rollins. The problem is what is the status with Reyes injury? now he's not going to be back on Friday as predicted. Is this a lingering injury? Guess im a little concerned with his injury right now and I might want to lean towards the Kinsler side of that trade, if Reyes injury continues to be a problem.

Just my opinion

My only concern is the loss of power in my line up for this season. If I knew Quentin was healthy I would jump on this.

I would say Kinsler but 2nd is growing in depth and SS isn't so I think I would take Reyes, Chipper, and Felix (or Bedard) which ever you like better.
