BIG Deadline DEAL RE: Longoria (WHIR)

[sigriffey]

OK, I have Longoria for 2 more years ... BUT ... I have A-Rod at 3B for one more year and a need for a playoff push. I have an ERA of 13.9 and a whip of 2.40 this week and get no wins these days. The other guys can be kept for 1 more year. I can keep 6 players.

Do I do this?

GIVE: Evan Longoria
GET: Josh Hamilton and Felix Hernandez

12 Team H2H league, with 6 Keepers -- (SO I have to choose 6 to keep for next year. All player are keeper eligible, but those with a "K" are under contract and go back into the draft after 2010, the others after 2011).

stat categories: R, 1B, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, AVG -- IP, W, L, CG, ER, ERA, K, SV, WHIP


My Team:

C M.Wieters
1B A.Pujols (K)
2B C.Utley (K)
SS D.Jeter (K)
3B A-Rod (K)

Although it's pretty good value, I hate giving up the best player in the trade and you are doing it here. Longoria and A-rod are elite 3B and should haul much more in return than Hamilton. I would think Braun + Wainwright, or Soriano + Felix would be near value, not Hamilton/Felix (although hammy is heating up...)

Anyone else think this deal is worth it if I could get Holliday instead of Hamilton?

new deal: Longoria for Holliday and Felix

maybe I throw in someone ...

[RedByrd]

I agree with the other two posters when they say stay put. That being said, if you can get Holliday instead of Hamilton, I would say do it. Especially if you are trying to make a playoff push.

Return the favor? http://www.fantasybaseballcafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=395981

For Wainwright and Holloiday, certianly not.

I prefer the Felix and Hamilton deal.
