Choo for Buchholz? WHIR

Postby Chief Wahoo » Thu Jun 17, 2010 11:58 pm

12-team H2H (standard 5x5 plus OPS and quality starts). Team looks like this...

C - Kurt Suzuki
1B - Ryan Howard
2B - Brandon Phillips
SS - Hanley Ramirez
3B - David Freese
OF - Justin Upton
OF - Carlos Gonzalez
OF - Nick Markakis
Util - Hunter Pence
Util - Delmon Young
BN - Adam Jones
BN - Gordon Beckham

SP - Tommy Hanson
SP - Matt Garza
RP - Jon Rauch
RP - Kevin Gregg
P - Phil Hughes
P - Clay Buchholz
P - John Danks
BN - Johnny Cueto
BN - Scott Baker
BN - Trevor Cahill
DL - Chad Billingsley

Would like to add another dependable OF since I just dealt Morneau/Byrd for Howard/Danks. I was offered Choo for Buchholz. Do I need the outfield help that badly? Can my pitching staff sustain that loss? Thanks a lot guys. As always, WHIR.

I like the trade. I think Choo has more value than Bucholz and with Baker on your bench I think you will be fine in pitching.

Your OF is fine but this is too good of value to pass on. I'd do this without question. Choo is a solid player that will help in all categories, Bucholz is still putting things together and can be inconsistent. Do the trade.

I like this trade for you. Usually in hitter/pitcher trades I prefer the hitter. This is another case of that. Choo is solid in all 5 categories. I'd grab him and try to deal Delmon Young while he's hot!

I agree with all of the other posters. Your outfield is okay, but this deal is too much of a steal. I'd go for Choo and then maybe try and deal another one of your OF'ers.

Please help with mine. viewtopic.php?f=26&t=415022
