10 team league, h2h with normal 5x5 stats plus OBP, doubles, QS, k/9. Also is a keeper league where we keep 8 players.
I get Lincecum I give Kinsler/Ethier
My team: C. V-mart 1b: Pujols 2b: Cano SS: Tulowitski MI: Kinsler CI: A-Gonzalez OF: Ethier OF: C. Young OF: Willingham OF: R. Davis Util: Smoak Bench: Pence DL: Ellsbury
T.Lincecum is obviously a top 3 pitcher, if not the top pitcher.
With that being said...I would not make that trade. A.Ethier is ranked 2nd in my Yahoo League right now. I.Kinsler has played well since coming back from injury. I have both on my roster.
It's too much. He would have to add a 2nd player of good value.
Third vote for no. Lincecum is ridiculous, but pitchers only get out there every 5th day, while Ethier are Kinsler are doing it everyday. When it comes to a top bat or a top arm I always lead to a top bat b/c they contribute on a daily basis.
gotta agree w/ the above comments. It would be great to have Lincecum, but you OF is pretty shallow right now. You can afford to get rid of Kinsler w/ Cano on your squad, but losing Ethier would be hard.
As a guy who streams SP, I have a hard time giving up 2 very good players (make that great players if Kinsler can stay healthy) for a SP, even one as good as Lincecum. I'd say NO.
Keep your hitters ... very hard to replace that kind of hitting while you can always find a few good FA pitchers to fill in your gaps (you pitching is pretty strong already) ... May want to look at trading one of you RP for a good SP if you are dominating Saves.
