a manager in my league has put Grienke on the trading block as his staff also has lincecum and king felix and he is looking for a LF.. I was thinking ab offering Carlos Lee for Grienke...not sure it would be able to get done but if so, is it a good idea and would it hurt my offense too much?
That offer would almost certainly offend him. You can low-ball, but don't offer anything insulting. If you really want Greinke, I would probably offer CarGo and Brett Anderson or Carlos Lee and Piniero or Matusz. That still might not be enough... if I were him, I'd want at least Carlos Lee and Brett Anderson, but you might as well low-ball him at first.

I feel like CarGo and BAndy would be a good spot to agree at, especially with Anderson's solid start today
