Fielder for bjUpton/downs, keeper, whir

Postby kmullen73 » Fri Jun 05, 2009 1:24 am

10 teamer, Keep up to Five, lose first 5(or however many kept) rounds in draft.
I am in 5th place in a 10 teamer. Top 2 pay. 19pts out of first.

I'm first in HRs, second in RBIs 7th in runs, but 7th in SBs and Saves.

Is Fielder too good to give up, he is raking right now, but this does help my team, I think. Is gambling on Upton too risky?

WHIR for sure leave a link will get to it tomorrow if not tonight.

That's risky IMO, especially with Fielder playing like a top-two rounder that he is. But I guess I'm biased since I just traded for him like you know, but I wouldn't do that trade. I'm sure you could get Upton for cheaper than that.

I'm gonna be 100 percent honest right now. I own Upton, and I believe in this kid, he's easily one of the breakout hitters this year which I believe will sustain only sightly less magnificent numbers than this the rest of the season. HOWEVER, if you offered me prince fielder for Upton, I would, Without a doubt, without even thinking, accept that. I think my commish might even turn it over haha. Its a bad trade, Fielder is playing like a Mod Edit use nice words beast. (Although now I'm thinking of seeing if I can do that... ;-D )

If I got a more proven closer, such as kRod or Bell instead of Downs does it help the value of the trade enough?

What about Youk for Upton?

I like Upton a lot, but definitely not more than Fielder, and probably not even as much as Youkilis. I would stand pat.

Help?
