So the guy who's 6-0 in my 10man H2H league, literally knows everything about baseball, I mean like I dont know how he does it wants me to trade Votto (who is fucking raking) for Roy Oswalt (with the 'Stros who couldn't rake a pile of leaves). He tried to sell me CJ wilson for votto earlier and I said that was equivalent to calling me retarded. So now he's back with Ozzie and I still dont like the trade, but I just wanna make sure I'm not pulling the wool over my eyes on vottos worth. I think he's top 1B. However, is oswalt is traded to a contender, I'd pretty much hit this in a heartbeat. So, thoughts? Here's his roster and mine: What do you think I should be able to get for votto if I should trade with him at all? (Sidenote: do you think its safe to use Moyer against Hou and FLA in his 2 start next week?)

i like that deal....
votto>oswalt by himself though.... and i'd start moyer vs astros and marlins....astros are just the astros and marlins are a younger team which moyer is best against
c-olivo 1b-d lee/smoak 2b-mcgahee 3b-zimmerman ss-Rollins/theriot OF-upton, choo, mccutchen, damon, (sizemore on DL) RP villanueva papelbon feliz SP gallardo, dempster matusz maholm bailey e jackson (brett anderson and webb on DL)
Honestly I wouldn't trade Votto right now at all. He could easily keep stealing bases which is just a plus. That packed with his power and solid AVG make him a top 5 1b IMO. I realize not everyone will agree with that, but he is a stud. Don't trade him unless you are getting a top 5 SP
