am i overpaying for Hanram?? WHIR

[fierro33]

i an only keep 5 out of these guys:

justin upton
ryan zimmerman
evan longoria
dustin pedroia
joe mauer
bj upton
justin morneau
josh beckett

we start

c
1b
2b
3b
ss
2b/ss
1b/3b
util


i can keep 5 so i can actually trade 3 keepers for 1.......would u give up any combo of these 3(pedroia,zimmerman,morneau,bj upton) for hanram? or is it just too much and i should look elsewhere.

I would do it, since you're in a keeper crunch and Han-Ram is one of the best players in the game.

[duckbillgates]

Unless the Hanley owner has next to no other valid keepers, I don't see you landing him throwing together a 3-for-1 when you take your top players out of the running.

Could you post his roster?

[fierro33]

he has no other good keepers, just hanram.....it is his idea.

out of those 4 which 3 should i give him....im thinking morneau/bj upton for sure right? then out of zimm or pedroia its tough

If you could trade BJ Upton, Morneau, and Pedroia for HanRam that would be huge.
You're keepers would be J Upton, Zimmerman, Longoria, Mauer, and HanRam

You would own the top SS, top C, 2 of the top 5 3rd basemen, and perhaps the best up and coming OF.
There will likely be plenty of 1st base talent to compensate for trading Morneau, and Pedroia's good, but if it were b/t him and Zimmerman I'd keep Zimmerman all day long. And that's coming from a Sox fan!

I agree with the above post, Trade your expendable kepers (BJ Upton, Morneau, and Pedroia) for one of the tops keepers. They are just going to be thrown into the pool anyway. How are you giving up too much, if your going to dump them any way? Yes you make a week team stronger, but you also make a strong team (yours) stronger.

[fierro33]

yeah i agree...just wondering if im better off trying to pujols,fielder,arod,howard type to get some power

[fleurent2121]

Try for Pujols but HanRam wouildn't be disappointing at all

You're going to have more success, pulling off a trade with a team that has a weak keeper list.
