Currently in last place. Does this trade seem fair? Do you think it has any short term or long term value for me.

There is no way that gets accepted, but it's worth a try I guess

[RyeWhiskey]

That trade will be rejected because it's ridiculous, but maybe it's a feeler trade and you'll be more serious later?

[Singles]

I agree that this trade shouldn't be accepted. Maybe add another player to the deal.

[bujfan2030]

Do you like the trade any better if I throw in Nolasco.

Yes, but it still won't be accepted.
Kinsler > Phillips (though it's closer since Phillips is in a groove)
Felix >> Nolasco.

I know Kinsler was rated higher to start the season, But over the last month kinsler is #200, and Phillips is 30th. For the season Phillips is 76th.

[Bonger]

Fair enough, but is your concern the past month, or the next 3 months. Kinsler has first rounder upside...this is as good as Phillips gets..

It isn't like we have crystal balls. All I can do is confirm that Kinsler is the more talented of the pair and that I will take talent over last months performance.

I have Phillips...I've been trying to deal Phillips+ for Kinsler in my keeper league for 2 years now....I still have Phillips....
