Halladay Rios for Braun? WHIR

[bosoxrock34]

I need help in the OF. This guy wants Halladay and change for Braun or some sort of deal. His power drop off is big if he loses Braun. I could go Halladay and Granderson for Braun and hope I can get something else out of him. Aram and Granderson are killing me but I think both will turn it around. Granderson should be back in 2 weeks.

i'd probably switch it up to a player worse than rios, make fukudome...it's essentially a top batter for top pitcher, you obviosuly need hitting more than pitching so i'd probably do that...

mind checking mine out?

Yeah, I would try and switch Rios for Fukudome. Halladay is a clear top 2 fantasy pitcher, so you shouldn't have to give up a great slugger (I feel Rios will sustain his level of play).

Thanks for the help on mine.

I agree it is worth a shot to go with Fukadome instead of Rios, but I think you should do the deal either way. Braun is a beast and his production is impossible to match. While Halladay is amazing as well, Pitching is pretty deep this year.

Halladay and Fukodome for Braun is fair IMO

[jacktowner]

I agree with the rest on this one - definitely make the trade, but don't give him too much.

I'm gonna play devil's advocate here and tell you to hold onto Halladay. There's got to be a trade out there that you can pull of without giving up the best fantasy pitcher in the game. With Lidge and Madson hurting he's only going to toss more than the 9 CG's he put up last year. Now if complete games aren't a stat in your league than I would diminish Halladay's value slightly. Halladay may win 25 games this year and have 10+ CG's. Add to that a sub 3 ERA and a sub 1.20 WHIP (which are all easily reachable for him in the NL) and I wouldn't want to give him up straight up, nevermind "with change".

That being said you're not going to be going wrong taking Braun for him. And I would toss is Fukudome if you're set on pulling this trigger.

I agree with the last poster, see if you could try to get Braun without giving up Halladay. Try sending Verlander and Rios or Verlander and Granderson. If those don't work, then Halladay and Fukudome is not bad, but I'd see if you can retain Halladay.
