So I have a trade in the works where I give up McCutch for Rickie Weeks and Michael Bourn. It is a Standard Roto league 10 team I only want to pick up another 2B because of the Utley situation and I can put Weeks in for Hill when Utley is back
Active Batters Doumit, Ryan(C) MIN Mauer, Joe(C) MIN Morse, Michael(1B,OF) WAS Utley, Chase(2B) PHI Sandoval, Pablo(3B) SF Gordon, Dee(SS) LAD Hill, Aaron(2B) ARI Moustakas, Mike(3B) KC Ethier, Andre(OF) LAD Gonzalez, Carlos(OF) COL Heyward, Jason(OF) ATL McCutchen, Andrew(OF) PIT Viciedo, Dayan(OF) CHW Martinez, J.D.(OF) HOU
Crawford, Carl(OF) BOS Davis, Ike(1B) NYM
Active Pitchers Bell, Heath(P) MIA Betancourt, Rafael(P) COL Chacin, Jhoulys(P) COL Farnsworth, Kyle(P) TB Hamels, Cole(P) PHI Jimenez, Ubaldo(P) CLE Kershaw, Clayton(P) LAD Motte, Jason(P) STL Zimmermann, Jordan(P) WAS
Decent deal although I think I would rather have McCutchen. You don't need a 2B so I don't think I would trade an OF like McCutchen to get another one. Plus Weeks is an injury risk as well so why have two 2B that might miss a decent amount of games.

Yeah I don't see the benefit to you. Keep Cutch, IMO he is poised for a breakout season. A guy I am definitely targeting early and often in most of my drafts
I think the deal is decent too. I don't care for cutch a whole lot, he put up some weird contrasting numbers from 2010 to 2011. I like targeting players with high AVG. Weeks is a good acquisition, but you don't really need him, any chance you could get someone to replace viciedo in the deal instead of weeks?
Like the other responders, I think this is a pretty fair trade. I can see why you'd want an upgrade/extra 2B. Since you have other options, Weeks' injury concerns aren't as big of a deal.
However, I'd probably keep McCutchen. I think Bourn is highly overvalued this season. He's a one trick pony and steals can be gotten for much cheaper than him.
