I don't think you should trade Mcgehee, especially not for niemann. I own Mcgehee in my 10 team 5x5 league. He's had a really solid start to the season. Everything I've heard or read about him has been positive and a lot of analysts think his numbers are for real. Why do you need Niemann anyways?? It looks like you have a pretty solid pitching staff already. Plus you have Bedard, Young and even Webb on the DL. I say if you are looking to get another pitcher for now try and trade Wiggington away. He is on a pace that he can't possibly sustain. Yea he's hot, but based on his career numbers he will fall back down to earth sooner rather than later. If you can find someone weak at MI willing to offer you a teir 2 or 3 pitcher for wiggington go for that.

As for improvements. I think you have a pretty solid team all around. If there was one place i'd look to upgrade at it would be in your OF.

Hope I helped.

I agree McGehee has more value than Niemann. If you are dead set on dealing McGehee, you can do better than Niemann for him. I'm with the other poster. I'd stand pat and look for a better deal. Thanks for the help with mine.

Thanks for the help on mine. Agreed.

No don't trade this. There are plenty of good SP's coming around this year, and you just need to pay attention to the waiver wire to get them. I am talking about the CJ Wilson, Colby Lewis, Garcia types.

i'd stay put...too many SP similar to niemann, not worth losing Mcgehee

Just as an echo, scour the waiver-wire. There are plenty of comps to Niemann available probably and Mcgehee is looking like a player this year! I am pissed I got out bid for him!

Hold onto McGeehee...I think you can deal him for far better, but would attempt to do it before he slows down. Thanks for your help.

I've got them both. I targeted Niemann in the late rounds of the draft thinking of last year. And so far it's been as good or better. McGehee has been a great fantasy story this year. I would try and have both these guys if you can.
