I wouldn't do any of those deals.

Of note...you have 7 keepers indentified but say you can only keep six. And how is Longoria not considered one of your keepers?

[sigriffey]

Longoria will be a keeper -- all the guys with a "K" are keepers from last year and go back into the draft after the 2010 season (when their "3 year contract" is up). Longoria was drafted by an owner with the first pick in this year's draft and as such is a keeper through the 2011 season. I acquired him in a trade of my Ryan Howard and Rick Porcello, so now yes, Longoria is one of the 6 keepers, but for one year longer than the rest who are eligible.

Would you try to move Soriano for Kinsler or Prince? I would also not mind trying to get Matt Cain as an upgrade to one of my SP like Slowey or Kershaw...

I like deal C the best but I just could not part with my best player in MCab. He's too good and still young. I would not do any of these.

Would any of you do Soriano and Dukes for Kinsler and Bourn?

or Soriano and Dukes for Prince and Bourn?

[Members Only Jackets]

I would do Soriano/Dukes for Kinsler/Bourne

U get a huge SB lift w/ Bourne(who's starting to hit better overall) and Kinsler is perhaps the best 2b in the game when u factor in youth.

[sigriffey]

If he doesn't go for that, do I try Soriano for Prince and Bourn?

Should I be worried about Kinsler's injuries as they impact the September playoff period?

[woodson_28]

I agree that I wouldn't do any of the 3 trades in the OP. The trade above involving Soriano/Dukes for Kinsler/Bourn would be a decent deal.

I'd also pass on all of these. Does no favours IMO

Return the favour

All bad trades for you imo. Miggy may not be 100% but he is worth more than those trades.
