Does this trade put me over the top? WHIR

Postby slackgolf » Mon Apr 05, 2010 3:57 am

10 team League first year of a keeper (keep 3). 8 hitting cats(h,r,hr,rbi,sb,avg,obp,slg,xbh) 5 pitching cats (ip,w,sv,k,era) Head to head. Big money league amongst competitive friends

C- Weiters
1B - D. Lee
2B- Cano
3B - Sandoval
SS- Han. Ramirez
OF- J. Upton
OF- J. Werth
OF- N. Cruz
UT- Borbon

Bench - A. Beltre, Alexei Ramirez, R. Davis

SP - Haren, Wainwright, Peavy, Baker, Sanchez, Schrezer
RP - Soria, Bailey, Frasor

The Trade: I give N. Cruz, J. Peavy
I get M. Cabrera, Brett Anderson

I feel like this is a cant miss, especially since I will have Mcab, Han Ram and Upton as keepers.

I know Peavy has potential but he could also miss and hitting has more cats in this league.

What do you guys think? WHIR

MIguel Cabrera alone is worth at least Peavy and Cruz and you get Anderson with it

Yes this is a freakin fantastic deal for you. You can slide M-cab into the UT position and put Borbon in the OF now. This team looks really good on paper.

MLB Im not sure I make that trade if I am you. Verlander is good but Lester is gonna be real good this year. Reimold will put up ok numbers and Rios might get back to his old form. I Would stick with Lester and Rios.

Great deal to get MCAB

as for this other one? I think Verlander def out performs Lester (just don't like him as SP)
I do this deal in a heartbeat I hate Rios and he will never live up to any potential that was thrust upon him.

Verlander over Lester
Riemold (not playing everyday) over Rios (a bum)

Verlander has the talent but seems to rotate every year from great season to disaster season. No consitency in my book. Lester is a dominant pitcher who will come close to matching verlander in Ks from last year. Lester plays on the better team and is likely to get 17+ wins with a low 3 era. I just cant say that Verlander is consistent enough to have a good year this year, I purposly avoided JV due to his risk where as Lester has only gotten better the last couple years.

Reimold has little value where as Rios (if and a BIG if) he rebounds could have a decent season.
