Josh Beckett's Value WHIR

[Mr. White Sock]

I'm looking to deal Josh Beckett for a good home run hitter but I can't figure out his value. What kind of guy do you think he is worth? Leave a link so I can return the favor.

Beckett is a top 15 SP in most setups, so he should be able to fetch you a nice power hitter. I'd want a Kemp, Granderson, Ibanez, or Berkman type in return. However, why not consider trading Cain instead? Cain seems a sure bet to regress rather quickly. He's pitched recently against some pretty crappy offenses is getting a lot of help from those "luck" stats. In fact, his FIP is over 4! You likely won't get the same caliber bat, but maybe you can pull off someone like Adam Dunn or Andre Ethier.

You might be able to get Adrian Gonzales.

In one way, I can't see any improvement you need Drastically, but if you're looking for a hitter, maybe try to propose a trade high, see if the person accepts or counters. Thats always my strategy. Maybe try to get Ibanez.

I usually lose home runs.
