MAGS for KEARNS and CLEMENT HELP

[Peja and Bibby]

i get mags and give up clement. i have a deep staff so clement is almost irrelevent. good deal for me right?

Eh, it's not so obvious for me. That new stadium in Cincy is going to allow alot of HRs...all depends on whether you think Clement is going to continue to develop and be a top pitcher or fall back to mediocrity.

If Clement is not really going to be used on your pitching staff, there is no reason not to trade him to strengthen your offense. That means that at least in your perspective you are trading Kearns for Magglio. Kearns is a great player and awesome upside but there are no guarantees as to what kind of stats he'll put up. Maggs is virtually a lock to hit .300-30-100 so I think it's a no-brainer.

The only reason to reject the trade would be in a keeper league where you might want to hang on to Kearns.

No worries.
