A Three Team Trade

I am considering a three team deal in a standard 5x5 league. The deal is as follows:

I trade Alex Rios and Phil Hughes for Jason Bay.
I then trade Jason Bay for David Wright and Hunter Pence. (I may have to downgrade at one of my lesser closer spots to get Pence thrown in. Otherwise it will be Bay for Wright straight up.)

My question is, do I do the total swap, do I just trade for Bay, or do I do nothing at all. I think I'm going to do the total swap. Any help would be much appreciated.

Here is my team as it stands now:

C Martin
1B Texeira
2B Figgins
SS Furcal
3B Teahen
OF Vlad
OF Rios
OF Duncan
UT Ad.Gonzalez

SP Peavy
SP F.Hernandez
SP Kazmir
SP Hill
SP Harden
SP Hughes
SP Lincecum
RP Hoffman
RP Jenks
RP Wheeler
RP Soria
RP Owens

My new team would have the same pitching staff (minus Hughes, which hurts very little, but would shape up like this

C Martin
1B Texeira
2B Figgins
SS Furcal
3B Wright
OF Vlad
OF Duncan
OF Pence/Teahen
UT Ad. Gonzalez

Thoughts?

If you can get Bay for those two, do it as quickly as possible.

Re: A Three Team Trade

Trading Hughes and Rios for Bay or Wright would be a good trade for you. Good job.

Re: A Three Team Trade

I ended up having to tweak the trade a bit. In the end, I dealt Russ Martin, Alex Rios, Scott Kazmir and Joakim Soria for Brian McCann and David Wright. Now, my team stacks up as follows:

C McCann
1B Texeira
2B Figgins
SS Furcal
3B Wright
OF Vlad
OF Duncan
OF Hamilton/Teahen
UT Ad.Gonzalez

SP Peavy
SP F.Hernandez
SP R.Hill
SP Harden
SP Lincecum
SP Hughes
RP Hoffman
RP Jenks
RP Wheeler
RP Owens

Now, I get to pick someone up. I'm thinking Noah Lowry, anybody have any opinions on him?
