Here are my reasons for doing this deal:
1. Hardy never plays on my team, he is behind Reyes.
2. Cordero is expendable because he is at peak value and I have a 23 save lead over the team that is 2nd in saves and I'll still have FRod, Accardo, and soon Al Reyes.
3. Roberts hurts my steals, but I have a 20 steal lead of 2nd place and Reyes will get another 30-40 in the 2nd half.
4. I have finally given up on Abreu. I drafted him high in quite a few leagues and he has let me down big time. Even giving him up my OF will be Bonds, V. Wells, Markakis, and Hawpe.
5. I get Utley, Reyes, and ARod for as long as I want them for the future.
This will be my post trade team:
C - Estrada
1B - Kent
2B - Utley
SS - Reyes
3B - ARod
OF - Bonds
OF - V. Wells
OF - Markakis
UTIL - Thome
BN - Hawpe
BN - A. Gonzalez
SP - Zambrano
SP - Sheets
SP - Shields
SP - R. Hill
SP - Gorzelanny
RP - F. Rodriguez
RP - Accardo
RP - A. Reyes
RP - Marmol
RP - Rauch
Holds are a stat. Plus I get to pick 2 more players up off waivers since I'm trading 4 for 2.
