In my 20 team h2h dynasty league I just got offered ethier for colby lewis. Do I do this or will me pitching suffer by doing this trade?

Hmm...this is a tough call because of the players you have on your team. Id have to say that I would do this trade if I were you on the basis that you are getting a better value. Lewis has looked really good this year but Im not sure if it will hold up for a full season. Ethier on the other hand should be a sure bet for 30/100 so I would definately jump at the chance to get him.

I think it would also give you a chance to trade upton or fukudome for some infield help or pitching if you really need it. But in a 20 team league you should be ok especially with the performance of Gio so far this year. You do lose some pitching but the trade would make your team deeper and give you more flexibility with lineup management and trades.

Ethier is a pretty nice upgrade to your OF I would probably do it.
League Setup:
13 Team Points League
6 Hitters 3 Pitchers (Positions don't matter)
1B = 1, 2B = 2, 3B = 3, HR = 4, RBI = 1
Win = 12, Save = 5

I really think you need to pull the trigger on this deal. Although Lewis has been fantastic, Ethier will fit in very nicely for you. I say you need to do it. Good luck!

Would you mind helping me out here?
