10 team h2h Keeper league: i just managed to trade Ackley + Broxton to get Kipnis from an owner who was desperate for saves and has Cano as his starting 2b.
Then another owner immediately offers me Kinsler for Beachy + Kipnis... so basically Beachy/Brox/Ackley for Kinsler... do i need to snappity snap accept this one and feel great about getting a top 3 2b without giving up any elite talent??
not sure if it even matters since im currently in 2nd overall and am basically a lock for playoff spot, but: Kipnis can be kept in the 18th rd next year. Beachy in the 8th. Kinsler becomes a 1st rounder, but league rules stipulate i would have to cut him next yr if I want to keep my current 1st rounder, MCab.
intersting SP available on the wire are Bass, Volquez, Miley, EJax
Batters C: Jesus Montero (C) 1B: Eric Hosmer (1B) 2B: Jason Kipnis (2B) 3B: Miguel Cabrera (1B,3B) SS: Hanley Ramirez (3B,SS) OF: Justin Upton (OF), Curtis Granderson (OF), Jose Bautista (3B,OF), Allen Craig (1B,2B,OF) Util: Brett Lawrie (3B) BN: Cody Ross (OF), Kirk Nieuwenhuis (OF) DL: Brett Gardner (OF), Jacoby Ellsbury (OF)
Pitchers SP: Yovani Gallardo (SP), Cliff Lee (SP), Gavin Floyd (SP) BN: Jon Lester (SP), Brandon Morrow (SP), Brandon Beachy (SP), Matt Moore (SP,RP), Tommy Hanson (SP) RP: Craig Kimbrel (RP), Addison Reed (RP) P: Kenley Jansen (RP), Sean Marshall (RP) DL: Sergio Santos (RP)
I still have the offer open. I mentioned it in the OP but I can keep Kipnis in the 18th rd and Beachy in the 8th if i choose to keep either. Kinsler will become a 1st rounder and I would 100% cut/trade him this off season unless MCab suffers some career ending injury. Im allowed to keep up to 8 players, only 5 of which may be from rounds 1-10.
Leaning towards not making this move now because Kipnis seems like an 85% version of Kinsler, and Beachy is worth at least a half of a Kinsler himself
