Werth/Hoffman for Votto/Young? Need advice! WHIR

Postby Guido_BagDonnavich » Sat Jul 18, 2009 11:49 pm

I give: Jayson Werth, Trevor Hoffman

I get: Joey Votto, Michael Young

Should I do this deal? I obviously have a glaring need at shortstop, but I don't want to make a desperate move. Votto will boost my team's BA, but I would be losing some power in giving up Werth. Not to mention I would be further depleting and already depleated pitching staff. Let me know what you think, thanks!

12 Team H2H

Batting: Hits, HRs, RBIs, Runs, Avg, Steals

Pitching: W, L, Ks, ERA, WHIP, Saves

C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, 3 OF, 2 Util, 2 SP, 2 RP, 3 P, 5 Bench

My problem is I think Young is overatted for a fantasy team. He hits clutch for the Rangers (& the AL during the all-star game) but his numbers are not as great as people give him credit for. They are good numbers, not lights out!

I love watching teams in my league draft him in first round. I wouldn't touch him until round 8 or higher. Votto is a quality player. But Hoffman is like a kid again, and werth hits some big shots. I wouldn't do this trade, if I were you.

please help with mine: viewtopic.php?t=393959

votto and young for me. young is a massive upgrade at SS for you and saves is only one category.

I would do this w/o question. Werth is good but Votto is better hitter and Young is more valuable than Closer.

Mine?

i would also do this trade. i don't think you're losing a lot of power b/c votto has tons of it. he missed a lot of time, so his numbers are lower than werth's. do it. good luck!
