10 team, head to head 10 keeper league.
Offensive K's and OPS do count.

I give Dunn & Aramis
I get Bay and Chris Carpenter

What do you think?
I was offered this deal but not sure how much I like it. Bay is definitely an upgrade over Dunn but is the upgrade with Aram? I wouldn't start Aram much this year(just got him in a trade) but I would keep him for next year as his shoulder should be 100%. Everyone can use extra pitching but I am not desperate. Would you do this deal?

We just started a keeper league this year (1 guy this year, and 2 next year), so I might not offer the best advice.

I think Bay is a huge upgrade, but good position players are hard to come by like Aramis. I am worried that Aramis will not ever return to 100% (I am a skeptic with shoulders and over 30). Carpenter is a nice addition, but again I do not know what you have on the bench in regards to another 3B? My gut says make the deal.

I have Youkilis at 3rd as of now. I got Aram as almost a throw in in a deal a couple of weeks ago.

I would probably make that deal with Youk at 3B.

With the stats mentioned and the fact that you have Youks at 3B, I would go for it.

Please help.

I would probably do it, and just hope that Carpenter stays healthy.

With K's included Bay is a big upgrade on Dunn.

Since you have Youk I think that makes your decision easier for you.

Carpenter will be a nice boost for your pitching staff.

Can you help with mine?

I'd do that trade. Bay and Carpenter are arguably the two best players in the deal when everyone is healthy, and the loss of Dunn's K's may come close to offsetting the lost OPS. Also, with Youk at 3rd Aram may never start for you again.
