My Zimmerman for his Wigginton and Jonathan Sanchez?

[sigriffey]

I have a great team that is in first by a narrow margin. The problem is, they are porcelain dolls of late ... Utley AND Kinsler are hurt. Need a band aid and wouldn't mind more SP.

Zimmerman has to go back into the draft. So do I do this?

Give: Ryan Zimmerman
Get: Jonathan Sanchez and Ty Wigginton

12 Team H2H League with 6 keepers (a * means the 3-year keeper contract expires after this year)

9 x 9 categories (R, 1B, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, AVG -- IP, CG, W, L, ER, ERA, K, SV, WHIP

MY NEW TEAM:

C Brian McCann*
1B Adam Dunn*
2B Reid Brignac
3B Alex Rodriguez*
SS Derek Jeter
OF Carl Crawford
OF Matt Holliday*
OF Andrew McCutchen
UT Evan Longoria
UT Curtis Granderson
UT Ryan Zimmerman*
B Mike Stanton
DL Chase Utley*
DL Jacoby Ellsbury
DL Ian Kinsler*

SP Roy Halladay*
SP CC Sabathia*
SP Ubaldo Jimenez
SP Johan Santana*
SP Clay Buchholz
SP Brett Anderson
SP Ted Lilly
SP Johnny Cueto
SP Max Scherzer
SP Jorge De La Rosa

This would certainly be a no-go for me if you were able to keep Zimmerman, but with his contract ending for you, I think this is good value for your team heading down the stretch. Wigginton is a jack of all trades and can be plugged in across the infield, and Sanchez is a quality pitcher that you can add to an already great rotation. I like this for you, and think it betters your chances to win this year.

My hesitation: The team I would be trading with is only 3.5 games behind me in the same division and has great pitching but needs some power. So the risk is that I help him fill in his gaps and bolster him. Thoughts?

Thanks for the context, and yes, that certainly does change things.. If he has great pitching, would you be able to squeeze more out of him than Sanchez? If not, I would shop Zimmerman some more - there is bound to be a guy in need of a quality 3B. See what kind of arm you can get from other teams, and reassess. If the value from across the league isn't matching, then I would reconsider this deal. You are in a good spot at the moment, and unless you are in love with this deal, I see no harm in staying put. You have a good set of pitchers, and your bats are certainly strong enough to withstand the Utley time out. I still contend that this trade would help you this year - but knowing this context, it may just help the other team more, resulting in a net loss.

this isn't bad but I do the other trade for Felix. Wigginton is getting shopped and who knows what he will do, you can hold tight with Brignac for now. Sanchez isn't worth giving up Zimm for.

Help?

Wiggy's jack of all trades is awesome, but like already posted who knows where he ends up, and he could be a platoon guy or added depth (bench) for some trades.

J.Sanchez has solid numbers (good K's) Giants look to be good for a run, but still the deciding factor here is Zimmerman going to your competition. I would pass on that,

If you could score an "ACE" like King Felix, then I would go for that,
