Dunn & Ibanez for Ichiro WHIR

[DKuon]

I get:
Ichiro, OF
Yunel Escobar, SS

They get:
Adam Dunn, 1b, OF
Raul Ibanez, OF

I've been desperately trying to get my batting average up, but that would mean that I would lose out in the HR that Dunn brings. Ibanez is a shell of former self from last year fabulous year and I've been trying to shop him around. Getting Ichiro would give me more of a reason to get rid of Rajai Davis who hasn't been really hitting as much. I'm surprised that Ichiro's SB has dropped in recent years since last year he only had 26 SB. Yunel Escobar has been dreadful before his injury, but maybe he'll turn it around the second half of the year. Should I do this deal? Or should I counter this to get more out of Dunn and Ibanez?

Ibanez was cut in my league in April & no one has touched him...I like this deal for you esp. if you need an AVG boost.

btw - i wouldnt cut Rajai, hes hitting good again & stealing every game...leads MLB in steals...try and deal him


help?

Thanks for helping with mine. This is a decent deal for you. I've never been a huge Ichiro fan, but he would help your AVG. And I wouldn't worry about the SBs. I'm watching the game tonight and he's got 3 SBs and it's only in the 5th (and it was against Mauer!).
