2 deals (18 guys) - Vazquez,Werth,Ethier,LaPorta,Wandy(WHIR)

[plapre3]

I have a couple of big deals on the table involving 18 players in total. The trading mates won't really budge much, so it's kind of an all or nothing thing. It's complicated, but accepting only one deal isn't an option since it would leave me completely lopsided. My team is in first place in our H2H setup (full stat cats at bottom of post), but the 2nd and 3rd place teams are very close and I've struggled lately. Should I make these deals?

I get:
Javier Vazquez , Matt Capps, Andre Ethier, Gerrardo Parra, Edwin Encarnacion, Jordan Zimmerman, Jose Contreras*, Mike Stanton, Michael Saunders*
I give:
Corey Hart, Huston Street, Jayson Werth, Nolan Reimold, Billy Butler, Wandy Rodriguez, Mark Buehrle, Matt LaPorta**, Neftali Feliz

*Not sure about keeping Contreras and Saunders. I may replace them with Jeremy Guthrie, Mike Jacobs, or Gary Sheffield
**Minors guys can be very valuable in our setup, only guys with less than 200 ABs, 75 IP, or 20 APP this year AND last qualify. With only 10 keeper spots former minors guys are rarely kept if they're not named Longoria, Braun, etc. It looks to me like LaPorta will get 200 ABs and judging by his first shot at the bigs, won't be a keeper. I'd much rather have Stanton, whom I think will be the #1 prospect in baseball at the start of 2010.

This is a lot to take in, but from what I gathered...Vazquez, and Eithier are the best in the deal, so I say go for it
