RATE MY TRADE!

Postby Bakeshow » Thu Jun 04, 2009 8:18 pm

OK I'm 4th in a 12 team H2H league and I'm dominating steals and needed some power.
R, HR, RBI, SB, AVG, OBP W, K, SV, ERA, WHIP

My roster is:
Russell Martin C
Ryan Howard 1B
Robinson Cano 2B
Marco Scutaro/Christian Guzman SS
David Wright 3B
Carl Crawford OF
Curtis Granderson OF
Matt Kemp OF
Juan Pierre UTIL
Michael Cuddyer BENCH

Cole Hamels P
Chris Young P
Bobby Jenks P
George Sherrill P
Joe Saunders P
Randy Wolf P
Ervin Santana P
Tommy Hanson P
Rafael Soriano BENCH
Kelvim Escobar BENCH
Joe Blanton BENCH

I have been proposed a trade Aubrey Huff for Russell Martin. I want to do the trade because one I need power and need to get rid of some of these steals. 2 Jason Varitek is a FA and I could drop Blanton if I needed too. Should I pull the trigger?

Since I have so many steal I would bench Pierre and try and trade him (which I have been trying to do) for some power, or maybe package Huff and Pierre for a better hitter like Jermaine Dye. I have already picked up Varitek and dropped Blanton just in case I accept it.

i'd pull the trigger on that deal.

and try to trade pierre with huff after the deal for an upgrade...i don't think J.Dye is an upgrade over Huff, by the way.

i hate selling russell low since i think you could get a whole lot more for him if/when he starts to rake. elite catchers are hard to come by. Id look for a power hitting 1b to fill your UTIL spot.

Guy in my league pulled off Crawford for Tex before Tex heated up. I was mad, I'd been trying to get Tex... was a great trade.

It would be interesting to know who the big power guys are on the 2-3 lowest steals teams.

I do think the Huff for Martin trade is an upgrade, but don't stop there.

Thanks for the help with mine.

Catcher is deeper than ever this season, and Huff is a second half beast. GREAT TRADE!!
