I think that's a trade you do. You'll lose some Ks but the tradeoff of getting a slightly lesser pitcher and a great outfielder is hard to pass up.

Hit me back?

By all means take that trade. Hitting over pitching (I'd take Kemp straight for Doc) and Cain is no slouch. Congrats!

I agree with everyone else. Make the deal. You can't lose getting solid Cain in for Halladay, and then with the Kemp bonus, which is HUGE.

Excellent trade for you. As someone already stated, Halladay for Kemp alone would be a great deal for you. Nice move.

Kemp has been hitting very well and is exceeding expectations. Cain is a very good pitcher, probably a #2 pitcher in the Giant's rotation. I think that you should do this trade.

I'm going to have to say probably not, depending. As you say, it is a 4 team league. My question is how many OF you start.

If you are starting Michael Bourn, by all means, make the deal.

If the worst OF you are starting is Shin-Soo Choo or Bobby Abreu, I say pass.

Help with mine:
