Possible blockbuster on the table. 6x6 mixed keeper. Offensive categories: AVG, R, RBI, HR, SB, OBP. Sort of in a vacuum, I realize, but rest of season which group would you prefer to own?
GROUP 1 1B: Votto 3B: Sandoval OF: Bautista, Kemp, Cruz, Raj. Davis
GROUP 2 1B: A.Gonzalez 3B: Bautista OF: Kemp, Cruz, Granderson, Raj. Davis
********* If I trade, I end up with Group 2. If I stay put, I stick with Group 1. I'm in first by a point, so no need to drastically shake things up, but still, if moving to Group 2 is even a tiny upgrade, I might consider it. Leave a link, WHIR. Thanks.
I'd rather have group 2 and it's not even that close IMO - what is the exact deal in question? Out of curiosity, what kind of arms are you giving up here?
If I'm understanding this correctly this essentially comes down to Votto and Sandoval vs Adrian Gonzalez and Curtis Granderson. So this is a pretty tough decision.
I would have to choose Group 2 though since Gonzalez is playing amazing right now and Sandoval is injured, so there is no telling how he is going to play when he comes back. But I dont think you really could go wrong with either of the groups.
Thanks, all. Deal would be my Votto/Sandoval/T. Hanson for his Gonzo/Granderson/Mo Rivera....I'm winning so far with a killer offense and a middle relief/closer strategy. Hanson, stud as he's mostly been, is a little extraneous to that strategy now (I'm well behind in W, K, doing great in WHIP/SV/ERA). Mo would join a staff of Axford, Santos, Walden, League, Melancon, Adams, Salas.
I like group 2. Gotta love what Granderson is doing this year, I kind of see Votto and AGonz having similar value, and Sandoval is a bit of a question mark, plus the Giants' offense is pretty bad especially with Posey out.
