I was offered Sizmore and Markakis for J Upton and M. Kemp

I am thinking I shouldn't do this deal. It is a 9 X 8 league where the typical power/speed cats are there, but includes fielding %.

Please let me know what you think. I am battling for the 6th playoff spot.

this may sound crazy, but i'd stick with kemp and upton. there is no way i would have said that early on in the season. kemp is on fire and brings all stats. sizemore can too, but his injury is worrisome.

help me please: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=394170

Ya know, I wouldnt. I might be in the minority, but Im not that big on Sizemore, especially his BA. Upton has really come into his own, and Kemp is just amazing. Now, if they would just move him up the damn lineup..

Help with mine please:

I agree . Keep Kemp and Upton. I have Markakis and havn'r been able to get full value for him. My league mates tend to think he is another Alex Rios. Overrated.Markakis is heating up some but only two hrs in 5 weeks just does't cut it. And no steals.

Kemp and Upton are definitely the more valuable players right now. It would be a buy low on Sizemore, but Kemp will definitely make up for no Sizemore even if Upton slows down a bit.
