I feel like the weakest part of my fantasy game is making trades, so I'm hoping for some help here.

In my 14 team keeper league (we keep 15 plus 3 minor leaguers, so it's essentially a dynasty), I'm in 3rd despite being weak in HR and RBI. I was just offered Skaggs (minors), Beltran, and Rex Brothers for my Bauer (minors). While I love Bauer, I feel as if a slight downgrade to Skaggs is mitigated by getting Beltran... thoughts? Thanks in advance for the help!

Boy, I sure think so. I really like Bauer, but I also really like Bradley and Skaggs almost the same, and I think Beltran is a pretty big deal maker in this case - you still get a few good years out of him in a nice, potent lineup, and you still get a hot D-backs prospect and a tad bit of help in the pen as a result - I'd pull the trigger. Some Bauer lovers will probably say stay put, but I just don't see that big of a difference between the group in ARI, and gun to my head I say Bradley ends up being better than both anyway ;-D
