how did i do on this trade? WHIR!

Postby ChainDrive » Tue Apr 20, 2010 12:31 am

in the end i traded arod and chris young for mroneau carlos lee and ryan franklin. thats the best i could do and i wouldnt have done it but it actually helps my team cause i move headly to third base and use lopez as my player i sub in for when either my 1b,2b,or 3b have days off. i also burn an outfielder and get a guy who could breakout in lee. was this a good trade for me? and leave a link ill help back!

Arod should have got you more. I love Morneau but you should have held out for a better deal.

It's fair. you probably sold high on Chris Young, plus you get a closer. It's hard to evaluate a 1st round pick trade. But Lee will bounce back, probably in a big way in May. I'd try to add another SP. I like to have 5-7 SP that can win 13+ games

You should have been able to get WAY more for A-Rod. Bad trade :(.
