Alright, I know it sounds like an easy deal but.. WHIR!

Hi, I'm in a 12 team H2H ESPN points league with something in the neighborhood of 12x12 cats.

I picked up Starlin Castro about a week before his debut (As a cub's fan, I've had him on my radar for a while). He had his awesome debut, and now a fellow Cubs fan REALLY wants Starlin.
I personally have Orlando Cabrera and Yunel Escobar to mix and match into the SS spot. I have a feeling that Starlin could produce more points than these two, but it honestly cannot be enough to justify turning down this deal. Being a Cub's fan and having a hole at SS, however, makes me sad to trade away this exciting kid.

HOWEVER

Justin Upton OF -for- my Starlin Castro SS.

I have Victorino, Jason Bay, And Carl Crawford already (All 400-450 projected point producers, same as Upton), but still. I could use Upton to spell an even worse Bay, or even use my new found OF depth to swing a trade for something else.

I'm also trying to be greedy by swinging Castro and Chapman for Verlander, but he won't bite at that. Lol

In a second! Youy have to capitalize on his big game and traed him while his trade value is at its highest. And youre right -- no brainer lol

Thanks, I'll try to follow a greedy rule of trading that I'm sure exists - and attempt to get even more.

Any additional opinions? Somebody turn me off of Castro in the context of this trade

Thanks for the help though

Hey thanks for the help. If you haven't already done this deal, do it right now. I guarantee you don't get any better value this season for Starlin Castro than Upton.

DO IT NOW! Nobody will know who Castro is in about a week and Upton will be hitting .280/100/35/100/20.
