Offering Billingsley/Kouzmanoff for McGehee: Desperate Move?

Postby mm92280 » Wed Apr 28, 2010 9:15 pm

I'm getting pretty concerned over my 3rd base position in my 20 team keeper league, as Kevin Kouzmanoff is just stinking the joint up. I knew he wouldn't be a good option but I needed a decent option in the latter part of the draft and snagged him, thinking he had an outside shot at 25 homers and RBIs. That is certainly looking like wishful thinking now and my offense needs some help. Would it be totally desperate of me to offer Billingsley and Kouzmanoff for Casey McGehee? I had my doubts about McGehee coming into the season but he's looking like a good player who just developed late. What do you guys think?

Here is my team, as it currently stands:

C: J. Clement (C, 1B)
1B: R. Howard (1B)
2B: I. Stewart (2B/3B)
SS: I. Desmond (SS)
3B: K. Kouzmanoff (3B)
LF: S. Shoo Choo (LF, RF)
CF: C. Gonzalez (CF, LF)
RF: J. Hamilton (RF, CF)
Util: A. Jones (DH - hopefully outfield eligibility coming)
Util: J. Guillen (RF)
Bn: D. Stubbs (CF)
Bn: J. Hermida (LF, RF)
Bn: E. Young Jr (2B)

DL: J. Rollins (SS)
DL: M. Cameron (CF)

SP: C. Hamels
SP: C. Billingsley
SP: R. Dempster
P: S. Baker
P: R. Wolf
RP: C. Marmol
RP: M. Thornton
Bn: J. Garland
Bn: K. Lohse


Thanks!

In a 20 team keeper, I have to figure Billingsley has some good value still. Let him put a couple of good starts together and you should be able to get considerably more.

I wouldnt do this deal.

I would give Bills a longer leash ... the whole team is bound to do better soon. McGehee is doing well but I'd want someone more proven for that price.

help me out? viewtopic.php?f=26&t=409943

I have Bills in a 20 team keeper as well. I'd give him a few more starts. He looked good last time out and he gets the Pirates today. He should build a bit more trade value over his next couple starts. Hang tight.

Help on mine?
