I play in a H2H points league. I own Tommy Hanson but another owner told me both Anibal Sanchez and Tim Lincecum could be had for Hanson. Which of the three SP are best?
-Hanson isn't the ace we thought he'd be a couple season ago. He does good-but-not-great most times he takes the mound. A lot of 6 or 7 IP, 3 ER outings.
-Sanchez is similar. More K's but gives up a few more runs overall too.
-Lincecum has been a trainwreck pretty much all season. But can he turn it around?

I do the deal, Sanchez isn't far off of Hanson. & maybe Lincecum bounces back, good start v HOU, granted Houston. But nonetheless, Do it.

Hanson may have a slight edge over Sanchez but I actually think it's a fairly even trade straight up without Lincecum. The big difference between Hanson and Sanchez right now are just the Wins and I think Wins are overrated for a pitcher. Personally, I never base any SP decisions on Wins because the stat is based off of the entire team in a sport that rewards individual stats. A lot of the time, the stat comes down to luck (Nobody can tell me that Cliff Lee hadn't pitched well enough not to have a single Win before the All-Star Break).
The risk of that trade for the reward of Lincecum figuring it out makes it something that I'd pull the trigger on.

I'd easily take Hanson over Sanchez.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!

I should clarify - it's Hanson for either Sanchez or Lincecum, not both. Is trading Hanson for either Sanchez or Lincecum a good deal for me?

Keep Hanson. He'll have a better 2H than Sanchez. Tiny Tim is a huge flip of the coin. I traded for him 5 starts ago. Still not sure if I should regret it or think that he'll bear some semblance of his old Cy Young self.
