4 for 4 Deal - Opinions Needed!

Postby p32bars » Sun Aug 15, 2010 6:39 pm

I'm in 1st place, been there since late May, I'm starting to see my points slip, at least 10-11 points over last 3 weeks. Losing ground in OPS, Hits, and Runs Scored.

I was offered this deal:

I give up Mark Teixeira (can't be kept), Ben Zobrist (can't be kept), Elvis Andrus (rd 9 keeper), and Corey Hart (rd 17 keeper)

I would receive in return...

Hanley Ramirez (can't be kept) Vlad Guerrero (round 11 keeper) Mike Stanton (can't be kept) Chone Figgins (can't be kept)

I would never consider moving Teix in the 2nd half but I already have Miggy occupying 1B and have been playing Teix at UTL slot. Han-Ram brings me more power from SS. Zobrist and Andrus have really just been SB guys but bringing back Figgins and Han-Ram doesn't kill me there. I think Stanton can continue this surge for the next month and I can play him in my OF or UTL. I think Hart's surge is all but over, maybe he reaches 30 HR.

Do it? Or Stick ?

I say stay, too. Andrus and Hart are solid keepers at those rounds, and the trade isn't much of an upgrade, if any

Help with mine?

So its between keeping Elvis Andrus or Guerrero? Its easy, dont do the trade. If you're slipping in points, all you have to do is to pick up some streaking players from waivers and drop them when they go cold.
