Trading for pitching

Postby beefcurtain » Mon Jun 21, 2010 5:43 pm

My middle of the pack team needs some pitching. Head to head league with 6x6 categories (losses and OPS). I've been offered:

Oswalt for Butler
Bucholtz for Butler

Butler plays in my utility spot. If I trade him, I'll likely start Garret Jones, Bret Gardner or Delmon Young in his place.

Should I take either trade? If so, which one?

Leave a link and I'll help in return. Thanks.

If Oswalt gets traded, it's a no-brainer. That's really all it comes down too, Buchholz will get a ton of run support, has the talent, but is still young, whereas Oswalt is a proven ace.

I'd say both of those trades are good if you need pitching.

considering you count losses i'd take the buchholz offer. it could be another month before oswalt is traded and buchholz is no slouch himself. plus if it's a keeper league i'd rather have clay anyways.
