20 team 5X5 keeper league, been offered Kevin Kouzmanoff, Martin Prado, Josh Willingham, Chris Narveson, and Lonnie Chisenhall for Billy Butler. Like Kouz, Prado, and Josh, and think Chis is a top prospect, but know Butler is starting to really produce. Would you make this deal??? :-*

I would not trade Bulter for any of those guys or the whole lot. Butler is a good hitter, it's just a matter of time before the power comes.

who would those guys replace on your starting roster? in a 20 teamer, thats not a bad haul if you get upgrades & prospects too. smaller leagues its easier to dismiss 3-1 & 4-1 trades when you give up the best player. In larger 1's a package is so much more inviting

I would hold onto Butler.

I too would hold on to Butler.

I would definitely hold on to Butler. His comparisons to Edgar Martinez are looking pretty accurate right now, and since he's only what, 23 (?), the sky is the limit.
