Is this a no brainer?

Postby cws5887 » Sun Aug 01, 2010 9:44 am

I was offered Mark Texiera for Greinke. Do I pull a muscle hitting accept?

It is not a no-brainer, depending on needs, but I'd take Tex over Greinke in a straight draft for the rest of the year. If you have somewhere to put him, go for it.

Yes, Carpenter in, Pagan out.

Although still the starter, Pagan will take more of a dip in playing time as Beltran is back fully. Francouer will play sometimes.

From looking at my roster, I can affort to lose Greinke and would benefit greatly from Texiera?

Good call, Tex will help more, I loved Prado in another of my leagues, but his injury slows you own, I would then drop Pagan for a 3B. I hope berkman thrives in NY, I am trying to move Greinke who will cost me $28 to keep for Brett Anderson for $7
