Trade Mo Rivera for Mark Reynolds???

[Dr. Whom]

Not sure if my 3B is good enough and I can use the steals from Reynolds as well as the power. The K's will hurt but I tend to lose this category every week with Votto the K man. I can pickup Fernando Rodney or Jim Johnson from the pool if needed

What say you?

I'd actually hold off, you have Stewart and Cantu who are both capable 3B's. Your RP's are solid and I wouldn't touch that at the moment. Weeks, Ramirez and Victorino should keep you in for SB's.

I may catch a lot of flack for this, but I wouldn't. I was pretty low on Mark Reynolds, and what he's done so far doesn't change my opinion of that. Sure he has HR power, but that average will never be pretty. If he's hitting .240, is it worth the average drain to chase the homers? Cantu/Stewart are more than capable fill-ins and Mo is an elite, cut-above-the-rest closer.

[sigriffey]

I agree with thejusman ... not super high on Reynolds, and you could argue that Stewart could replicate his power anyway with the way he potential trends and progresses this year. As for the SBs, you look solid, and I am sure you can find cheap ones elsewhere. If anything, consider maybe dealing Victorino and one of your so-so closers for Crawford or someone similar to get more SB that way.

[oxhammer]

I wouldn't do it either. As the other responses both said, Cantu/Stewart are fairly solid. They'll both be riding the pine if you made the trade. No use having that kind of talent rotting on your bench. Now, if you can throw one of those guys into the trade, and get someone else back in return, that would be a much better route for you to go.

Thanks for helping me out!

I would hold off as well. Rivera will help you, and there's no doubt here. Cantu is doing a good job for you right now, and Reynolds isn't that much better.

[Dr. Whom]

He countered my Soria for Reynolds with my Mo Rivera/leo Nunez for Mark Reynolds and Andrew Bailey

What say you?

[rjstix11]

Hold off you have Cantu who is killing the ball...Reynolds isnt high on my list...for every hit comes a k with Reynolds. Mo Riv will be of greater use to you

[BaseballYanksfan1]

maybe try to trade Dunn for a RF with some speed and power....and a higher avg than Dunn will give u

[Brizee8]

There's nothing wrong with having Cantu on your roster right now. He's batting cleanup and deserving it. You've got a good thing with him right now, and you don't mess with a good thing. And I think Reynolds was largely over-valued coming into this season.

Here's mine:
