Axford for Gordon?

Postby 43stunt » Thu Apr 28, 2011 11:45 am

Should I trade closer John Axford for Alex Gordon? I'm thinking about punting saves, wouldn't be giving up many points anyways.

12 team mixed 5x5 Roto Cats: R, HR, RBI, OPS, SB, W, K, SV, ERA, WHIP (no negative points)
4 Keepers
C - B Posey 1B - P Konerko 2B - D Espinosa SS - M Izturis 3B - A Rodriguez OF - M Holliday OF - N Cruz OF - T Hunter OF - S Fuld Util - B Butler Util - J Sands BN - M Byrd BN - J Uribe DL - S Rolen
SP - J Weaver SP - R Romero RP - J Axford RP - K Gregg P - M Thornton P - C Sale P - C Billingsley P - A Bastardo BN - B Myers BN - M Cain BN - D Holland BN - S Baker DL - B Matusz

I'd do it. You don't even have to punt saves - just watch for opportunistic pickups (like Rauch, Fuentes, Madson, Santos, Oliver, etc. from this past month).
