    I'm stumped

    So I got a trade offer that should be a no brainer for me:
    I give up Mark Teixara
    I get Scott Kazmir and Hanley Ramirez

    Considering how Kazmir is one of the best SP's in the league this year and Teixara is having a disapointing year, I should take this. But my problem is that I'm really struggling in my league with HR's and RBI so I need Teixara for the 2nd half. My only 1B backup is K. Youkilis and he won't provide many HR's or RBI.

    My pitching staff is strong:
    C.Zambrano
    J.Lackey
    J.Bonderman
    A.J. Burnett
    A.Petite
    and Ben Sheets on the D.L.

    Any thoughts?

    I wouldn't do it because you have a strong pitching staff and need HRs. Tex started the second half w/a 3 HR, 7 RBI game...looks like he's ready to rake.

    I wouldn't do it either, I'd bank on Tex having a BIG 2nd half plus your pitching staff looks great
    More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that's not only better, but also more directly involves me.
