J.A. Happ for Tim Hudson???

Postby Tenacious D-Store » Sun Jul 05, 2009 6:44 pm

I posted this yesterday with no responses, so I'll just keep it simple this time. Does anyone have a reason why I should not trade Tim Hudson (fresh off the DL from Tommy John Surgery) for J.A. Happ, in a 20 team 5x5 H2H dynasty league? I know Citizens Bank is a tough park for pitchers, but how much could Hudson have left in the tank?

will Hudson be anymore than a spot starter?

Lowe, Jurrjens, Hanson, Vazquez, Kawakami are there already

Kawakami is pretty much a joke IMO. He won't be any good in the future.He's Kei Igawa all over again. Hudson just threw 90 pitches as part of his rehab. Sounds like there planning to use him in the rotation.

I would do it.

JA Happ is probably going to get more run support and has been improving as time goes by.

I kind of agree with kidsilk in that Happ is not worth getting too excited about. Maybe there's another young pitcher you could deal Hudson for instead (i.e. Romero)

Help with mine? viewtopic.php?t=392679

I actually just dealt Romero for Nolan Reimold... lol

It was a tough deal for me to make, but with Ichiro and Abreu in my lineup I need to start building an OF for the future and he wouldn't do it for any of my other young pitchers. I'm pretty big on Riemold personally, I wrote about him in my column about three months before his call up. So far he hasn't done much to make me look foolish.
