if you are contending for a play-off spot this year, i would not do this trade. upton has been a disappointment, and i personally think ellsbury is overrated. i prefer power over speed. it would be great to have hanson in a keeper though. if it's a keeper, i would part with manny for hanson and upton if he'd do that.

help me please: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=395347

Bump?

Not with Holliday finding his zone in St. Louis. No way.

agreed. if you are in the playoff hunt, no way you do this deal. it would cripple you. I am not an Upton fan at all, so maybe I'm a little biased here, but regardless, the two best players involved in the deal are Holliday and Manny and those would be the guys you're sending away. No deal.

Yeah def don't do it.

Holliday has been ripping it up and Manny is Manny.

Also this isn't even a keeper league.

No way you should do this. :-t

You need way more for manny and holliday.

Can you help with mine?
