I have been offered Tim Lincicum straight up for Prince Fielder. I am thinking hard about accepting because I have Paul Konerko on my bench without really a place to play him. I could really use some pitching help. Would you guys be willing to risk having Konerko as your starting first baseman for the rest of the year if you could get Lincecum back?
Thanks.

I would do the trade if you were the one getting Fielder.
That is good value for Fielder but I would wait to see if there's anything wrong with Lincecum.
You have to be playing Konerko and Fielder right now. If not trade one for something good. Do you have a UTIL spot?

I would actually be the guy getting Lincecum. I do have a UTIL spot but I have been playing David Ortiz. It is such a crapshoot week to week on whether I should be playing Ortiz or Konerko. That is why I would love to trade Fielder or Konerko. I have shopped Konerko and there has been little interest. That is why I was thinking about trading Fielder, especially with how well Konerko has been playing.
Obviously the concerns are whether something is seriously wrong with Lincecum, and whether Konerko can keep this up for the whole year.

I'd rather have Fielder this year. Slow start, but he's too good to keep this up. Lincecum's walk rate is scaring me. Even though Lincecum is my favorite pitcher in MLB, I just don't trust him on my Fantasy Team...Somethings not right. If he was his normal freakish self, I'd do that deal in a second.
Help me now?
