Hi guys,
I'm in a 10 team keeper league, and I've been offered Jordan Zimmermann for Aroldis Chapman. I can give the rest of my pitching staff if necessary, but would you do this deal? Why or why not? Thanks.

Lineups and scoring always helps
But at face value? Yes, take Zim. Chapman could be stuck in middle relief all year and only give you 60-70 innings.

I think with the RPs you have, Zim will fit your team a little better. I say roll with him. Zimmerman should give you a solid win total and his team will only continue to get better. Also like others have said, you dont really know what Chapman's role will be going forward

I'd take a solid starter for a middle relief pitcher any day. Take that deal immediately.
