3 team trade - should I pull the trigger?

Postby Ookie » Tue Aug 04, 2009 5:18 pm

I have 2 proposed trades that would balance my team off and I want to know if you'd pull the trigger or not.

It's a 16 team (4 player keeper) Rotisserie league with about 16 categories...

Trade 1:
Give:
Michael Young (ss)
Get:
Jon Lester (SP)

Trade 2:
Give:
James Shields (SP)
John Danks (SP)
Brandon Inge (C,3B)
Get:
Victor Martinez (1B,C)
Asdrubal Cabrera (2B, ss)

Below is what my current team looks like (to the right) and what it would change to with the trades (to the left).

Current team - Change with trade
C - AJ Pierzynski
1B - Rusell Branyan - Victor Martinez
2B - Brian Roberts
SS - Michael Young - Asdrubal Cabrera
3B - David Wright
LF - Adam Dunn
CF - Shane Victorino
RF - JD Drew
Util - Brandon Inge - Rusell Branyan
B - Nolan Reimold
B - Jeff Francoeur
- Cristian Guzman (pickup FA)

SP - Edwin Jackson
SP - James Shields - Jon Lester
SP - Jared Weaver
RP - Trevor Hoffman
RP - Francisco Cordero
P - Phil Hughes
P - Tommy Hanson
BENCH SP - John Danks - NONE
BENCH SP - Brad Penny
DL - Erik Bedard
DL - Tim Wakefield

Yeah, I'd do this too. Inge is practically dead right now. You'd upgrade by getting Martinez and Lester, and it doesn't seems like too high of a price to pay to get those pieces. Go for it.
