I think I would do A. Greinke isn't going to pitch like he did last year as he has already shown, and it likely isn't going to get a lot better. I think this is decent value right now for Grienke.

I'd pass on both. Why deal your young guys without expiring contracts? Clearly your team is stacke. I'd try to move one of your true studs for a good replacement keeper.

I might consider deal A. You have a strong enough staff without Greinke and could use Ellsbury. But I feel that you can get more for Greinke, especially since you can retain him.

I would not accept trade B.

I wouldn't do deal A, I like B. I think Andrus is the best player in the deal...

I also like B. Andrus is a very good SS who seems to only get better. You wont really miss Bartlett. I know Beckett has had a terrible start, but he's still going to end up with equivalent or better numbers than Cain, IMO.

Greinke's value is so low right now that I'd hold onto him...he's still throwing well.

I would say you'd be on the short end of both deals, so neither.

Help w/mine?
