Ben Zobrist and Kevin Gregg for Vernon Wells

Postby bujfan2030 » Mon May 31, 2010 8:49 pm

13 team keeper league(7 players), 5x5 roto.

I've been offered Wells for Zobrist and Gregg. I don't trust Wells to maintain that power for the whole year and I'm disinclined to give up a potential keeper for him. I do need the power though. Ideally I'd like to pry Andre Ethier loose from him. Do you see anything I can add to Zobrist to make it a fair trade? Or, what would you give up for Wells or Soriano.

That is an absurd offer- tell the guy you're going to ignore him going forward.

I was offered Jose Guillen and Ryan Ludwick for Miguel Cabrera earlier this year. His argument "too many people look at the names and not the numbers."

I countered back offering Troy Glaus and CJ Wilson for his Roy Halladay. Needless to say, I haven't had an offer from him since.

LULZ. I would only target wells if you can underpay, not the other way around. Guys with soriano and wells (I have both of 'em aactually) are likely to try and sell high -- a combination of a once regarded name and a hot start and they think they can ask for 2004 prices. Pass.

I actually think Wells is coming around this year but that being said Zobrist and Gregg is way too much. I probably wouldn't even to Zobrist straight up as he seems to be heating up.
