I lost 2/3 of my OF to injury and need to do something to upgrade the OF. The other owner also has Suzuki and VMart, so I was also thinking about trying to get Suzuki too.
my thoughts on offers, in order of preference: I give: Hanley Ramirez and a SP (a:Hudson, b: J Garcia, c: Pavano) I get: Tulowitzki and an OF (a: N Swisher, b: G Jones, c:H Pence, d:C Headley)
C Miguel Montero 1B Carlos Pena 2B Rickie Weeks 3B Evan Longoria SS Hanley Ramirez OF Matt Holliday OF Andres Torres OF Luke Scott UTIL Drew Stubbs DL Magglio Ordonez
SP Cole Hamels SP Tim Hudson SP Jaime Garcia SP Carl Pavano SP Wandy Rodriguez (stream) SP Fausto Carmona (stream) RP Mike Gonzalez RP Matt Lindstrom RP Juan Gutierrez

Hanley is at a tier by himself, and tulo is coming back off a hand injury, I think you need a legit OF to make this trade work, and trading torres right now doesnt help you
I agree that Hanley is in a world of his own, but Tulo has the upside to be a monster producer especially in his park. .290/100/35/100/15 are not out of the question for Tulo given a full season. I like Pence more than Torres with the park factor as a variable. Pence is solid and could breakout something big sometime soon.
