Postby sigriffey » Mon Aug 02, 2010 12:43 pm

This is obviously a difficult question to answer because these players are largely unproven in the grand scheme of things. Neil walker has been playing very well recently, but I think he is the worst player listed. Brett Wallace has a lot of promise, but I'm inclined to say you should go for Bumgarner. At moments he has shown a lot of potential.

I'd do this deal every day of the week......especially since you need to clear roster space. Bumgarner since his arrival has been LIGHTS OUT

With all that elite talent being released you have to do this deal.
Those 6 keeps are solid, though I never like keeping speed only options unless it was a thread bare position.
Evan Longoria
Carl Crawford
Andrew McCutchen
Jacoby Ellsbury
Ubaldo
MadBum

probably be your 6 keepers. Damn I've never seen so much top tier talent on one team, I can imagine, I hope you enjoyed the run.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!
