15 team, keeper, roto, 5x5 cats league. Been offered: His ARod, Granderson, Humber, and Hammel for my Pujols, Reynolds, Ellsbury, and Crawford. I am getting killed in this league. Is this a trade that will help me now and in the future? I thought about countering with CJ Wilson and Volquez instead of Humber and Hammel. Any thoughts? My Team: C-Santana 1B-Pujols 2B-Ellis 3B-Reynolds SS-Gordon CI-AGon MI-Lowrie OF-Ellsbury OF-Melky OF-Sweeney OF-Ibanez U-Stubbs U-Brantley BN-Abreu DL-Crawford SP-Haren SP-Beachy SP-Nicasio SP-Lohse RP-Bard RP-LeCure P-Nolasco P-Matusz P-ZImm BN-Norris BN-Wolf DL-Farnsworth BN-Crain DL-Hudson

Thanks for the help. I don't like this deal for you. Just wait out Albert's slump. Sounds like Ellsbury should be back around the all-star break

I would stick with what you have as well. You are not getting enough in return imo, and if you gave up CJ wilson and Volquez instead of Hammel and Humber you would be giving up even more. You should be able to get more value for Ellsbury, Crawford, Reynolds, and Pujols. Thanks for the help with mine.

I think if you're getting killed you might as well do something drastic. You'd be giving away 2 people on the DL who aren't doing anything for you now, and you don't know what exactly they'll be like when they first return. Humber probably isn't worth much, but Hammel is great, and Granderson and ARod will help you in multiple categories. If it's a keeper league than maybe not, but if it's not, you might want to go for it. Thanks for your help with mine.

I would stick with Pujols. You're giving up a lot to get not a lot back...especially when it comes to ARod (he's not the same ARod he used to be).
help? -

Sorry, I missed that it is a keeper league. I wouldn't do it then. Ellsbury, Crawford, and Pujols should be much more valuable over the long run.
