[Super GM]

Looks pretty much even to me. You might wanna trade one of your many pitchers for an extra bat....

[McGill]

I have been offered Barry Bonds for Garret Anderson, Josh Beckett and Ugueth Urbina...should I take it?

[kcnyc9]

Deal sound fair. But i think your better off by trade a guy like klesko, Urbina and another pitcher if need, but no starter from the active roster for maybe (green, chipper, berkman, dunn.. etc). You still have williamson who gonna put similar numbers too Urbina. Good luck

[McGill]

I have accepted the trade. I'll just pick up some other pitcher off the FA pool...lots of good ones.
If it doesn't get vetoed, I'll have a lineup of:

C Posada, Jorge (C-NYY)
1B Palmeiro, Rafael (1B, DH-Tex)
2B Biggio, Craig (2B-Hou)
3B Glaus, Troy (3B-Ana)
SS Hernandez, Jose (SS-Col)
OF Sosa, Sammy (RF-ChC)
OF Bonds, Barry (LF-SF)
OF Roberts, Dave (CF-LA)
Util Martinez, Edgar (DH-Sea)
Bench Klesko, Ryan (1B, RF-SD)

I am also thinking about trading for Pedro together with Adam Dunn...I consider trading away Palmeiro and one of my pitchers...Would it be a good idea?...if so, which pitcher should I offer?...If the other team agrees anyway...

Here's the other guy's lineup...

C Rodriguez, Ivan (C-Fla)
1B Dunn, Adam (LF, 1B, RF-Cin)
2B Alomar, Roberto (2B-NYM)
3B Beltre, Adrian (3B-LA)
SS Jeter, Derek (SS-NYY)
OF Suzuki, Ichiro (RF-Sea)
OF Jones, Andruw (CF-Atl)
OF Wilson, Preston (CF-Col)
Util Lo Duca, Paul (C, 1B-LA)
Bench Cabrera, Orlando (SS-Mon)
Bench Hall, Toby (C-TB)
Bench Payton, Jay (CF, LF-Col)

SP Martinez, Pedro (SP-Bos)
SP Mussina, Mike (SP-NYY)
RP Rhodes, Arthur (RP-Sea)
RP Embree, Alan (RP-Bos)
P Halladay, Roy (SP-Tor)
P Vazquez, Javier (SP-Mon)
P Armas Jr., Tony (SP-Mon)
Bench Duckworth, Brandon (SP-Phi)
Bench Peavy, Jake (SP-SD)

[BankRoll]

I'd start Klesko over Edgar...

[McGill]

Of course...Anyways, it's just the tentative lineup. I'll shuffle them around as the season goes...

[bell]

If I were the guy I would be looking for a closer to be somewhere in the deal (the fact that I wouldn't even trade Pedro is besides the point). Embree is his only closer? And he's not even a sure thing.

[McGill]

I went through with the 3guys for Bonds trade. I then picked up Ted Lilly and Alex Sanchez off the FA pool...This is what my team looks like now...

C Posada, Jorge (C-NYY)
1B Palmeiro, Rafael (1B, DH-Tex)
2B Biggio, Craig (2B-Hou)

OF Bonds, Barry (LF-SF)
OF Klesko, Ryan (1B, RF-SD)

Barry Bonds and Sammy Sosa together?... WOOhooo!!
