Ethier for Strasburg?

[saur kraut & footbal]

I'm in a 10-team Roto league, and am in first place by 8 points - leading in every hitting category (except Ks) and am struggling in the Win and Whip columns for pitching.

at OF I'm sitting pretty w/ CarGo, Hamilton, Ethier, Coghlin, J. Bautista, and about to get Beltran off the DL, so I don't mind giving up Ethier (he's been shit since coming off the DL anyways).

I know Stras is the 2nd coming, but he's still just a rookie. Is this a good trade for me?

Well, is your league a keeper league? If so then I'd say definitely go for it. Strasburg has lived up to the hype and will be a great keeper given he was either drafted late or was picked up off the waiver wire. I don't think you should be as confident about your third outfielder(s) (if you give away ethier) Bautista or Coghlan, but it seems like you are receiving enough support from your other offensive positions to make up for losing Eithier. Strasburg will definitely get you the strikeouts
