Ellsbury/Inge for Sandoval/LaPorta? WHIR

Postby curl » Sat Feb 13, 2010 11:24 pm

I'm in a 20 team/25 keeper head to head league.

Was offered:

Ellsbury and Inge for my Sandoval and LaPorta.

I do have a need in the OF as my current starters are Nelson Cruz, LaPorta and Michael Brantley backed up by guys like Mike Cameron, Schierholtz, Conor Jackson. And, I also have Brandon Wood who could possibly breakout giving me a legitimate keeper at 3B. He also has DeRosa, Headley, Pedro Feliz, and Casey Blake as possible options at 3B in place of Inge, but are any combinations a good deal for me?

My initial thought is that the deal is "fair" as far as projections go for the upcoming year. However, as I'd be giving up the youth here, it'd only be even for the first year, to which I'd lose value every year after. But, I tend put too much stock into what I think young players will develop into in general, so thought I'd get other peoples perspectives on this.

I'd do it. Like you said, you could use the OF help. Ellsbury's speed should help you in bunches as well
