I would absolutely DO THAT deal... Greinke won't get many wins, while he is pitching in KC and Jones is a young pup, who will get better as the season goes on and David Price will be a STUD... Accept this deal before he takes it off the board! ;-D

HELP PLZ?

y, I would agree with Nike - Greinke was fantastic last season and will be good this one but not so fantastic as many hopes.
I see especially in keeper-leagues a strong advantage in Price&Jones. Jones is a little bit cold but he is heating up and Price did make a good job so far and he has the potential to be an elite-pitcher.
I would try that deal.
It would be nice to know what you did with our advice - so please write a short reply

I'm going to have to disagree. Greinke is going to be an elite SP for a long time. Both Kubel and Jones are playing like poo, but Jones has more potential. Still, the difference in Greinke and Price definitely outweighs that.

I wouldn't do that deal. Greinke is the best player in that trade by far. You really don't know what the other guys are going to do.

No way you do that trade. Greinke is head and tails over Price, and Jones, is well Adam Jones on the worst team in baseball.

as it stands, the trade isn't as good as you can get for greinke/kubel.

i would still pursue the deal. price for two years > greinke for one year

see if you can add a third part that definitively swings the trade your way.
