Trade McLouth?(keeper question) WHIR

Postby Big_Ben83 » Thu Jul 09, 2009 2:23 pm

I am in a 10 team keeper (keep 15). Roto scoring with normal 5x5 scoring. I was offered Hunter Pence, Leo Nunez and Alcides Escobar (minor league roster) for McLouth. I would have to decide on a contract if I kept McLouth as he is in his B year (currently 7, 4 dollars added each year) and Pence is under contract for 2 years after this with salaries of 9 and 13 respectively. Nunez wouldn't be kept due to his $8 dollar salary. What do you think? Roster below, planned keepers in bold, would probably drop Gaudin.

I would do that deal if I were you. I think McClouth peaked last year and if you look at his stats since all-star break of 08, they aren't that good.
