Kemp vs. Hanley

[maestro1313]

Need some thoughts on this...
5x5 - 12 team
Currently have OF - Kemp/BJ Upton / Crawford
Reyes at SS - Reyes.. (Have Youker at 1b/3b - J. Batista at 3b/OF so have flexibility)
Util - Francour or Moorse (Basically Hot hand..)

Have an offer...
Guy wants:
Kemp/Kimbrel/D. Lowe...

Gives me Hanley/Buchholz...

Not sure I gain enough to make this worth my while.
Should be OK in saves... even without Kimbrel...
Thoughts?

What do the rest of your pitchers look like? Kimbrel has been pretty solid this year so far on the saves, i'm not a big fan of Lowe but he's a decent pitcher, Kemp is having a great season so far IMHO, where as HanRam hasn't lived up to his draft hype this year. Buchholz has been doing better this month then April, but I'm not completely sold on him yet, but I think he's got the slight edge over Lowe.

Without seeing your other pitchers, IMO its a Matt Kemp/Craig Kimbrel for HanRam trade...at the begining of the year I would say yes thats a win for you, but based on thier numbers through 2 months of the season, I'd probably stay put.

*HanRam also got beaned in the foot last night, according to ESPN he's DTD with a foot contusion.

Hope this helps.

Well... I think Buchholz is a big step on Lowe and I'm still not sure.
So I was on the fence anyway...
Now with Hanley getting hit... think I'll walk away... at least for now.
Thanks

I own Kemp and I wouldn't trade him for Hanley right now. If that helps. I'd pass.

See mine? Thx. viewtopic.php?f=26&t=431681
