I would not do this trade. Roberts is not going to be as good this year. Dunn gets way to many K's and your team already has a lot of K's. Utley is a Stud. Try trading with someone else.

Yeah, I think you can get more for someone of Utley's production/position/lineup. If you're looking for an upgrade at 1st, you can do better than Dunn w/Utley. I'd go after a team with a cheaper 2B in the vein of Uggla, so that you could get more value out of the other bat you pick up. Something like Votto/Uggla or A-Gon/Uggla and the like.

The value part isn't bad, but I don't see how it really benefits your team. I think your team is strong enough as it is on offense.

I would hold off and see how your team develops. Usually you would do 2 for 1 when you need to add quantity, but I dont see that as a problem right now.

No, it wouldnt be worth benching one of your other players to play Dunn.....

Maybe if Roberts is doing well in a month or two and has no injury setbacks.....try for Roberts and an ace....

help with mine?

No no no. Utley is a top 5. Roberts is injuredish (and we draft him for running...so scary) and Dunn has a bad avg.
