so im searching for an ace starting pitcher and possibly another closer to go along with it. im trading ellsbury since i dont see an absoloute need for him. what pitchers could i straight up trade ellsbury for? oh and i could always trade sizemore instead too
C-Miguel Olivo 1B-Justin Morneau 2B-Ian Stewart 3B-Chase Headley SS-José Reyes OF-Jacoby Ellsbury OF-Brad Hawpe OF-Grady Sizemore Util-Carlos Lee Util-B.J. Upton Bnch-Jay Bruce Bnch-Scott Podsednik Bnch-Jose Lopez
Pitchers: Ubaldo Jiménez Ricky Nolasco Carlos Mármol Ryan Franklin Brad Lidge Scott Baker Roy Oswalt Colby Lewis John Danks Justin Duchscherer Shaun Marcum Jaime Garcia
You will not get fair value for him until he returns and shows he is healthy. When that happens i would take anyone from Wainwright, Nolasco, Garza, Kershaw, Hanson that range of guy
This is a very tough question to answer blindly. You should be targeting teams that have a speed deficiency, so you can maximize your return on the trade. If a team already has a speedster, they will likely only lowball you, since Ellsbury offers little else.
