Hanley / Longoria trade

Postby rails80 » Tue Jun 01, 2010 2:06 pm

Opened up my email to see this offer:

I send: Evan Longoria, Brian Wilson
I receive: Hanley Ramirez, Colby Lewis, Troy Glaus

My instinct is NO. Any thoughts?

I should also say that I picked up Brignac when Bartlett got hurt. Guys like O-Cab and Alexei are available still...

I would not make that trade. My first instinct was to side with Longoria/Wilson and say do it, but then I re-read and saw that you'd be losing those two. No, I'd stay put on this one.

Help with mine? viewtopic.php?f=26&t=413584

Yikes. Not so cut n dry to me. Hanley and longoria are both savages, to be sure - but I'd rather have hanley at SS. That said, I'm not sure whatever value-gap between them is enough to warrent losing a decent closer. I'd certainly think long and hard on this one -- probably easier the fill 3B with decent production then getting much use out of the brignacs of the world.

TB and OPS probably tip it a little more Longoria's way. I'd stay put here.
In a standard 5x5 I'd probably take Hanley side though.
