I'm not a big fan of the deal but steals is a need for me and some good potential players.

I would pass on this deal. If you need steals maybe pickup a guy like Brett Gardner?

My first year doing a money league so there is some hesitation, fantasy vet and I usually do well. Just getting a second opinion, my initial reaction was to reject but always curious to get other responses.

I honestly think you're getting fleeced. I understand the argument that if Ellsbury steals 70 he's a hot fantasy stud, but I still see him as one dimensional. You're giving up a 1st rounder (Utley) and not getting anywhere near comparable talent back.

To throw it back to you, what are you thinking on this deal? Why does it seem right for you??
