Victorino/Rodney for Kershaw/Ramirez WHIR

Postby slink » Mon Aug 03, 2009 6:17 pm

I was offered Alexei Ramirez and Kershaw for Victorino and Rodney. I'm mulling over the trade and I'm not 100% sure on what to do. I think Victorino and Rodney have overperformed so far but I still think Victorino is a better option than Ramirez. Kershaw is a stud and could help fill in with my injured pitching staff of Oswalt and Zambrano.

Take a look at my team and let me know if you think it's really worth it for me to do this trade.

I definitely agree that Kershaw is a stud, and I think Alexei can be but it isn't happening yet. Still, while I do like Victorino, I am not sold on Rodney, so I would bet on the upside of Kershaw and Alexei and do it.

Thanks for help on mine.

Nice trade for you as your pitching could use another solid arm. You have enough closers to not be too hurt by losing Rodney.

I would do this trade. I think Kershaw and Alexei are the real deal in the making.

I'm not sold on Alexei, but I am sold on Kershaw so I'd say go for it.

Help me if you can...
