Would You do this Trade?

Postby rasto21585 » Mon Mar 22, 2010 3:19 pm

So I was just offered mark texeira and john lackey for andrew mccutchen and felix hernandez. I know it stings to lose felix but getting texeira would dramatically improve my offense. Also I feel that lackey would somewhat soften the blow of losing felix. What ya guys think?

I don't like it because I think McCutchen's value is still on the rise and you would be left with too many question marks in your rotation. Teixeria is a stud, but I think your team is better off without that deal.

hope that helps

Take a look at mine?

I have to agree - losing Felix leaves your rotation shaky, and McCutchen's value goes up drastically in a dynasty league. I don't think the short-term increase from Tex's numbers are enough to make this trade.
