I'm in a deep h2h dynasty league (20 teams, 25 keepers). It's 6x6 with holds and OPS as the 2 extra categories.
I was offered the following trade:
My:
Mike Cameron
Jon Lester
Ricky Nolasco
For:
Curtis Granderson
Javier Vazquez
88th pick in the draft (out of 100)
Now, I really like Nolasco and Lester this year, but my OF is pretty weak, so I definitely could use an upgrade. So, do you think this deal is close enough to do? Keep in mind that this was his initial offer, so maybe I could try to substitute John Danks in for Nolasco and get a higher draft pick if it's just a little off. And I also have a couple veteran pitchers in Guthrie and Freddy Garcia, or even rookie Bryan Augenstein if he happens to earn a spot in the Dback rotation this spring, that I could keep with that extra keeper slot opened. So, thoughts?
My expected roster at this point:
C Joe Mauer
1b Chris Davis
2b Ian Kinsler
3b Pablo Sandoval
ss Yunel Escobar
of Nelson Cruz
of Matt LaPorta
of Michael Brantley
util Brandon Wood
util Mike Cameron
bench Lars Anderson
bench Conor Jackson
bench Ben Francisco/Nate Schierholtz (haven't decided which)
SP (with 11 starts max a week):
John Danks
Jeremy Bonderman
Jon Lester
Ricky Nolasco
Jeff Niemann
Kevin Correia
Francisco Liriano
RP:
Heath Bell
David Aardsma
Jose Valverde
Angel Guzman
Darren O'Day
