I definitely agree but you'll need to get a bat with that 5th overall pick.

Thanks for the help on mine.

I like that Crawford/ Verlander trade a lot. Crawford will give you 50+ sb which is equivalent to 25 hrs in this league. In a points league like this, 5 tool players are more valuable. Make the trade and keep crawford, wright, verlander and kinsler

I DEFINITELY WOULD NOT ACCEPT THAT TRADE

It looks like your getting more talent than you really are. Losing that 3rd round pick is what makes the difference. You have 4 great keepers in Wright/Kinsler/Haren/Lester...by making this trade yes you would gain 2 studs in Crawford/Verlander but then you would be losing Haren and Lester in order to keep them both AND you would be out a 3rd round pick.

What is more valuable to you...Haren, Lester, AND 2 draft picks (3rd and 11th rds) OR Crawford and Verlander (plus you lose your 3rd and 11th)

PS - As a yankee fan I would be very tempted to keep Jeter over Lester but I think letting Lester go could be a big mistake. I'd keep Lester and target Tulo/Rollins/Jeter in the draft because after those 3 and Jose Reyes?? shortstop gets pretty thin.



Let me know who you think I should take:

Ok so these guys are just trying to sell players to aquire picks for the draft...

I now have these offers on the table, do either make my KEEPERS better than Wright, Kinsler, Haren, Lester??

I give:
11th Round pick
12th Round pick

I Get:
Justin Verlander
Adam Lind
(so basically would Verlander or Lind be better keepers over any of the 4 I have now? If you do but you think the picks are too expensive I THINK I could get both Verlander and Lind for something like 15th and 16th RDers, but I only want to send picks if you think at least one of those 2 would be better keepers then what I have now)

I Give:
13th Round Pick

I Get:
Jason Bay (see above trade comments)

I would hold onto what you've got. Wright, Kinsler, Haren and Lester are better than Verlander and Crawford in my opinion.

I like Verlander over Lester, but losing the picks, probably keep your 4.

Hitting over pitching in my mind.
Wright, Kinsler, Haren are locks, but I'd take Jeter over Lester (as much as I hate Jeter).

Jeter is 36. Why keep someone that old with only 4 keepers? Plus he had a lucky babip last year.

You're playing to win this year. Jeter gives you a better chance in my mind.
