Branyan & Saunders for A. Gonzalez

Postby LloydChristmas » Mon Jul 06, 2009 4:30 pm

I would be giving up Branyan and Joe Saunders in exchange for Adrian Gonzalez.

I had Branyan at first and obviously Gonzalez would be replacing him there.

I have quite a bit of depth in pitching.

12 team, H2H, mixed league.

Thoughts? Branyan and Gonzalez are about equal right now, but in my estimation, Gonzo will be better than Branyan in the 2nd half at least to the extent of Joe Saunders' value (if that makes sense to you). I see it as Saunders is the premium I'm paying to receive Gonzo.

in a 12 team league, you should be able to find a replacement pitcher nearly as good as saunders. i'd do that deal since i think gonzo is still more valuable than branyan.

Yep...agree with every word...great analysis. I would take this trade. Branyan is great but Gonzalez is a freak.

I would definately make that deal. AGonz is a huge upgrade and if Saunders is expendable its a no brainer.

Def go with AGonz.

What sucks tho is that some fantasy sites were saying he'll get better protection when Hairston got back from DL.

Yeah, then they go trade him to OAK.
