I need SB badly, but also power/rbi/r lost ellsbury and longoria both top draft picks. DL spot occupied by farnsworth for another month at least, have to move someone. trade Longoria for Bonifacio? Or should i try for mccutcheon (unfair?) or Kelly Johnson (less speed) or Bourne (unfair?) WHIR 5x5 OBP 11 Tm Roto ----------------

Be careful not to sacrifice too much just to get SBs. I ignore SBs completely and focus on runs, rbi, hr and avg. Same with pitching. I have a few closers, but I never reach for saves. I won my league with that strategy last year. You may need to make a move, but make sure you're actually improving your team, not just reaching for SBs.
help with mine?

I say no. You are selling way low for Longo and even if it isnt a keeper league he will be back. And not that I wouldnt want to deal him, but I am not a huge Bonifacio fan. There are though 3 things I like about him... his position flexibility, his name and his speed. He will steal you a ton of bases but you would be lucky with 5 HRs 25 RBI .275 AVG and 70 Runs. I would try and deal Longo for a better speed/hitting prospect.

Even when Longo is hurt he's worth more than Bonifacio. Shoot higher, not Cutch or Bourn higher. But higher nonetheless.

no way. Selling way too low for longoria. You will do much better in SB once ellsbury gets back
