Huge $$ trade help needed...Lester/Howard for Adrian ++.

Postby kingmike74 » Fri Apr 16, 2010 8:09 am

5x5 seasonal roto


So I am in a 15 man league and it costs $15 per trade, yep, $15 out of pocket per trade.


I was offered this and not sure but I do know I want Lester very badly.


I give up

Adrian Gonzalez
Alexei Ramirez
Chad Billingsley
Gio Gonzalez
Ricky Romero
Ervin Santana

I get

Ryan Howard
Jon Lester
Jose Lopez
Rafael Furcal

I like the main pieces for you Howard more than A-Gonz and Lester more than Billingsley.

Ramirez is off to a slow start, but he always starts slow, so you are selling low there, but Furcal is a decent replacement in a deep league.

To me, It seems that in a deep league he is gambling that one or maybe even two of those young pitchers are going to pan out into legitimate fantasy SP.

What will your pitching look like after the trade? I think that will determine if you take this trade. Right now I would lean towards taking it.

BTW Does each team have to pay $15.

I concur ... you really get some nice big pieces here, so depending on the state of your rotation upon its completion, I lean "yes."

Yes if you can replace the loss of so much pitching.
