I have Jake Peavy and there is speculation that he might have to undergo surgery. Even though he is injured, what kind of OF help do you think I could get. My pitching staff would be fine without him and I need help in the OF. Just list some guys you think I might be able to get for an injured Peavy.

I was thinking maybe Victorino or Grady Sizemore(soon to be injured). But tell me some guys you think I could get. THANKS

Try for Sizemore -- both have had issues this year, so it is pretty fair IMO

help please?

anyone else?

Carlos Quinten. I've heard a variety of reports about him coming back right after the break or early August. I think he'll be back closer to the break and has a solid bat in a nice lineup that is healthy.

Thanks for help with mine. As I have Peavy also I read this looking for advice for me and was intrigued by the idea of getting Sizemore for Peavy so I promptly offered that trade.

I think Sizemore is fair but might be tough wrestling him away for Peavy. Quentin is a better shot. Try Sizemore first.

You can try either of those, but you are likely out of luck imo. Unless there are some keeper implications, why would anyone want to deal a top player for a pitcher that is out at least half the remaining season?

You may get lucky with Quentin, as he's been dropped in a couple of my leagues. If the owner is on the fence about dumping him, he may take Peavy as a stashee. In a h2h, someone might be willing to deal Sizemore, if he thinks Grady'll be shut down before the h2h playoffs. I don't think Victorino is realistic.
