Wow that is some lineup. Your rotation looks excellent and there doesnt seem to even be a need to make a trade.

Trade 1 - Your pitching is so good it almost seems superfluous to add Grienke. I wouldn't subtract from your offense to add pitching

Trade 2 - The rule of thumb is that you are trading Pujols you have to get at least 1 elite playerplus back. Its some nice talent there but the best player A-Gonz is 3,4th round material.....

Trade 3 - Pujols has more value than Braun, Verlander is worth more than Johnson, so is getting Hanson really enough to give up Pujols and Verlander. I don't think so.

Trade 4- This one has some interesting parts if you think Upton will bounce back. If you could squeeze something more out of him than W.Rodriguez, this would be the only one I might ponder doing.

I like trade 2. You get 3 great keepers in A Gonzalez, Crawford, Kershaw. I then would trade Ellsbury.

Fact on A Gonzalez. He's going to get moved at some point. He has a better career road ops and slugging % then Tex or Fielder. So he becomes basically Fielder when he gets moved to Boston or Chicago. Crawford and Kershaw are very nice as well.

Trade 4 is ok, but you lose Ellsbury and Bailey.

Trade 2 look's the most enticing. That would really give you a strong lineup...actually you already have a pretty solid team. Here's my link, please help:

I agree with trade # 2. Between Crawford and Gonzalez you make up Alberts numbers and CC will add a bunch of steals . Kershaw could be huge this year. I have Albert too and if that offer was presented to me I would be here doing the same thing you are. Tough call. Glad you are making it and not me.
