I personally wouldn't want Buehrle or Volquez on my keeper roster in a mixed league. IMO Victorino's value is greater than all 3 combined. I would not recommend making this move. Perhaps you could trade Molina and Tabata for Danks? That's a move I could get behind.
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.

Based on your lineup, I'm guessing this is a fairly large league? Your pitching staff is definitely weak, but I don't know that you can part with too much hitting without your batters becoming just as big a liability. Did the guy say ho wmany of the bats he'd need back, or any sense of which needed to be included? The guy's you've marked kind of run the gamut... I'd have no problem giving up gardner or molina, but obviously tiexera is a no go. Yadier, gardner and nathan would be the first 3 out the door for me.


help with mine?
