How much does Cliff Lee cost and who would be replacing Wright from your bench? :-)

Lee costs 27 and I am not sure who I would replace Wright with yet. I might have to get a young unproven player or someone like Mark Teahen off of WW. The other guy has Ryan Roberts but for some reason won't include him in the deal.

I would do it, you would net 18 dollars and get rid of Wright before gets hurt worse then he already is.

Teahen? %-6

If you could find a better replacement, I'd approve this deal, but deadweight like Mark, you just can't. ;-7

That is tough..

I like the cost of Lee vs that of Wright and Dickey. Adding Lee would certainly put you over the top in SP (Lee, Lince, Garza is a great 1-2-3 in an NL only), but 3B is going to be very hard to fill in an NL only league.

How many teams are there?

If you are in a 12 team league, you'd probably still have average hitting without Wright.

Speculation here- Wright is a prime trade candidate this year as the Mets are rebuilding. If he goes to the AL then he loses all value, so trading him may not be a bad idea.

But I'd still want someone better than WW fodder manning 3B... So probably decline at this point.

wright is there to stay, if he was traded it would have been last year and they would have signed reyes. wright is the mets franchise player.

I wouldn't do it just because of the hole losing Wright would create.

Doesn't sound like a trade I would like to do. I imagine it would be really hard to replace a 3b in that league.
90% of my posts are from complaining about my team :)
