Trading Utley for Pitching WHIR

Postby hmfc1874 » Wed Apr 28, 2010 6:17 pm

8-team Roto

I have Utley, and need pitching (mostly starters, but another decent closer would be nice too). I would also need a serviceable 2B to fill that slot if I traded Utley. I am a noob at this, and I'm not sure what I can reasonably ask for here.

His 2B eligibles are:
Brandon Phillips
Casey McGehee
Ian Stewart

Starters:
Roy Halladay
Zack Greinke
Josh Beckett
Jon Lester
Max Scherzer
Tommy Hanson
Jonathon Sanchez

Closers: Wagner, Wilson, Rodney

Top 5 second basemen that I could pick up as free agents are: Beckham, Kendrick, Izturis, Guzman and Schumaker.

Happy to try and help in return.

Utley is, well, he's freakin' Utley. I'd want Phillips and Greinke atleast.

I agree you should aim for Halladay, but if you really need starters Phillips+Greinke would be alright

I'd ask for McGehee and Halladay, and maybe throw in one of your lesser starting pitchers just to fill the void. That way he upgrades at Second base while you upgrade at starting pitching.

Help with mine? http://www.fantasybaseballcafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=409796

How about something like Utley/Buchholz for Halladay/Phillips?

Thanks to all for the help.
