Thoughts on this trade offer...

Standard 5X5, head-to-head, 10 man league...we play 3 OF's and 1 Utility.

My team.

IF - Miguel Cabrera, Pedroia, Hanley, Reynolds and Suzuki.
OF - Choo, Lind, Swisher
Bench - Derrek Lee, Butler, Pence, Morgan, Boesch
DL - Granderson

SP's - Marcum, Latos, Grienke, Ubaldo, Danks, Liriano, Wandy, Piniero.
RP-s - Contreras, Capps, Nunez and Wood.

I got offered Brett Gardner for Matt Capps. This offer hurts me as far as saves go, but Gardner is really the missing piece in my offense. SB's and runs are what I need. Should I do it and gamble that I can find another closer down the road?

Are there any other closers that you can pick up as a free agent?

Only stop gap guys like Corpas. F. Francisco is out there but I'm not even sure he wins the job back this season.

Small roster, small league. find the SB's on the waiver wire. BTW isn't Wandy hurting your pitching? His numbers stink and it's not like he's going to get any cheap wins with that offense.
