Hunter Pence for Chad Billingsly ?

Postby Chuckd05 » Sat May 01, 2010 3:38 pm

Pence is currently on my Bench in 14 team h2h league.. granderson is my only OF struggling, but i also have brett gardner i just grabbed...

Would this be a good move to up my Pitching

I have felix, dempster, wells, edwin jackson, cj wilson , and leake amoungst others..

i feel i can use the arm


good move ?

Whats your whole roster look like?

I think I would do this deal because I don't think that Billingsley will struggle like this all year and hes a solid buy low guy. Now Pence is also a solid HR/SB guy, but that Houston offense is just horrid this year.

Without seeing a whole roster I say yes to this deal because OF is deep and Bills will surely help that rotation as you can then bounce Jackson to the bench then. My next move would be comboing Edwin with a bat and getting an upgrade at that position.

Great thanks to soto for the sweet sig!...

I'd go with Billingsley, although with Granderson possibly going on the DL, you could use some OF cover. It depends on the rest of your roster, but your staff really could use some help.

thanks guys... apreciate the help..

i took the trade, granderson going on the DL may be a good thing for him any way , because with vasquez getting booed off the field yesterday I am sure he is a little un nerved about getting the same treatment, hopefully he comes back more relaxed and playing better anyway..

hopefully gardner continues to play well because he will be a starter for me now..

were in a deep league with 14 active owners so teams are allpretty even .

its prob too late but my roster is as follows : and is the worst team i have had in our leagues 5 year history , lol

C olivo
1b Fielder
2b Prado
SS A Gonzales
3b Chipper %-6
MI E ayabar
CI Figgins
OF BJ Upton
OF Damon
OF Hamilton
DH Vlad
DH Gardner

Bench - Zouzmanoff, Eric Young , DL Granderson ,

Pitchers Now - Felix, Billingsly, CJ WIlson, Dempster, Wells, and Marmol as my Relief Pitcher

Happ and Bedard are on DL

and bench arms are Mike Leake and minor league Arieta
