Need help with a big time trade....WHIR

Postby jonance » Tue Mar 09, 2010 12:05 am

12 Team H2H Dynasty League (keep all players forever)
6x6 (5x5 plus OPS/HLD)

I have been offered a trade as i wanted to get some pitching help. The trade would be my Miguel Cabrera and my 3rd round minor league pick (not alot to talk about there), for his Adrian Gonzalez, Dice-K, and Tim Hudson. Right now my rotation stinks, which doens't bother me as much in a H2H with the extra Holds category, but i think the extra pitching would help me out some. Remember this trade is "forever" in this dynasty, so is AGone equal or better than MCab. This is an OPS league and AGone actually led MCab in OPS last year, although in average Cabrera had him beat. If Gonzalez gets traded to a better park who knows what he could do, on a better team as well. So should i do the deal :-S Post a link and i'll help!

Do not give up MCab, Hudson and Dice K won't improve your pitching much if at all.

Completely agree with the rest, Cabrera for sure is more valuable. Hudson is almost worthless in a dynasty league and who knows what you'll get with Dice-K. You're better off looking at prospects coming up to the majors for long-term pitching help.

You can get pitchers like that off the WW that may be better in a dynasty league. A-Gonz is good, but you need more value on the SP you get in order to make this worth it. Miggy still hasn't hit his hitting prime, I don't think.
