Yeah I feel you are giving way too much in this trade, You cannot afford to lose Sabathia it would be detrimental to your pitching staff. Maybe try to ship Feliz.

I would pass. I know I may be in the minority, but I think the difference between pujols and Fielder (in that park) may be equal to the difference between Cano and Zobrist. And CC for Cespedes, no.
i feel your hitting is worse then your pitching. in an AL only league guys like lewis and santana are more valueable then youd think.
also you are getting 2 studs in this deal. idk why everyone is still talking about the park issues hasnt, didnt really hurt him this past weekend. i honestly think prince is going to put up more rbis and hrs then pujols.
If he'll fall for Feliz, then that's a no-brainer for you. But I doubt he goes for it. If he doesn't, stay put. You don't have another pitcher close to CC on your roster, so you'd be giving up your only ace and possibly the best player in baseball. You're getting some attractive names back, but your roster can't afford the move.
After turning down the last offer the other owner has offered me the following deals:
Deal A: Cespedes, Fielder, Cano for Zobrist, Balfour, Pujols(I like this but wouldn't have a closer then) Deal B: Cespedes, Valencia, Fielder for Feliz, Moustakas, Pujols
I REALLY like the first offer. You're getting 3 GREAT players (including the best 2B in the game) for one great player, one good player, and a closer who can likely be replaced. Saves can always be found on the waiver wire. Try Jim Johnson or Hector Santiago. But you're getting really good value in the first one I believe.

Would you guys do either of these?
Take A, then try and trade for Santos, since they might give him up?

I do not like trade A at all. Sure you'd be getting the best playing in Pujols, bot IMO that doesn't make up for losing both Fielder AND Cano. Trade B is alright, because in that case you'd only be losing Fielder.

I agree. I'd take it and worry about replacing your closer afterwards.
