does pujols for butler, beltre and cain sound fair?

[leonsbrother]

I think you orchestrate a good trade for yourself, but I am sure if it sounds fair to the person you want to propose the trade with. Even at his prime, I would be hesitant to trade those 3 for Pujols, let alone now.

Help mine, please? viewtopic.php?f=26&t=428118

the other person is what i'm worried about. he offered the trade, but i don't want to leave a bad taste in any owner's mouth with it.

butler and beltre alone didn't really spur me either though. i might just ask him for a draft pick instead of cain.

what if i offered him pujols for cain, butler and bailey?

i'm also thinking of offering pujols for cain and morneau. (same owner)


thoughts?

*edit: i would send back RA Dickey and Willie Bloomquist as part of the deal, mostly to make room on my team.

[leonsbrother]

You are a good man. If someone offered me that type of deal, I would take it.

This is how I would do it first: give him Pujols, and dump Willie and RA to make him feel better (even though neither worth much).

Then Cain, Beltre and Bailey sounds fair to me, and does Berkman still has 1B eligibility? But I would normally want some leverage on my side.

I would be a little bit hesitant on Morneau (that's why I passed on him this year).

I think this is fair for both teams.....you can include Dickey and Bloomquist if you're going to drop them anyway.
Help with mine?
