Time to Trade Jimenez?

Postby redskincow » Thu Jun 03, 2010 11:04 am

I'm in a weekly 12 team H2H league. We have three keepers each year. Stats are 6x6 (standard 5x5 plus OPS and Holds)

Two questions:

1. Who are my three keepers?

2. What would you want in return for Jimenez or Zimmerman to improve the team?


I'm thinking about improving at 1B or SP. E.g. trading Jimenez and another SP for two solid SPs. (Jimenez & Peavy FOR AJ Burnett & Josh Johnson)

My lineup:
C - R Martin
1B - Mark Reynolds
2B Chase Utley
3B - Zimmerman
SS - E Andrus
OF - Granderson
OF - V Wells
OF - Swisher
UTIL - David Wright
BE - F Guittierez
BE - Stanton

SP - Jimenez
SP - Hanson
SP - Peavy
RP - R Soriano
RP - C Marmol
RP - Rausch
RP - Masset
RP - C Villanueva
RP - Luke Gregerson
BE - J Cueto
BE - Mike Leake

Thanks a lot,

Rob

p.s. I'm happy to help anyone else.

I think it might be. The difference in his ERA and xFIP is pretty big. Check it out here: http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?pl ... position=P

He is obviously a stud, but I think there is a decent chance that he ends the season as a top 5 or 7 pitcher as opposed to the clear #1. I think you can get great value. Make sure you get a first round pick though, obviously.

Help here if you can: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=413767

I see Utley, Zimmerman and Jimenez as your keepers. But, I've never played keepers before. I think 2B is getting pretty deep these days, so I would trade Chase before Zimmy or Jimenez. IMO. Jimenez is just getting started, he's legit and undervalued because he's such a new breakout. I was listening to sports radio yesterday and they were naming off all the pitchers who had perfect games this year and they couldn't think of his name. Seriously?! He's got nasty stuff and I think I'd hold onto him unless you can get Top 10 value for him. Peace out and good luck. Help me?
