Help with a trade
I'm a long time reader but never posted much, but I need some advice...
I'm in a 12 team points league, with the following point values: Batting - 1 point each for Total Bases, RBI's, Walks, and Stolen Bases, Half a point (.5) for Runs Scored, minus 1 point each for Strikeouts and Caught Stealing Pitching - Win - 10 points, Loss – minus 5 points Save – 5 points, Blown Save – minus 2 points Quality Start (starter pitches at least 6 innings and gives up 3 or fewer earned runs) – 2 points Shutout – 10 points Earned Run allowed - minus 1 point each Innings Pitched – half a point (.5) for each inning pitched Strikeouts - 1 point for each My team looks like this: C - Paul Lo Duca 1B - Dan Johnson 2B - Josh Barfield 3B - Miguel Cabrera SS - Carlos Guillen OF - Adam Dunn OF - Lance Berkman OF - Nick Swisher DH - Kelly Johnson SP - Jake Peavy SP - John Lackey SP - AJ Burnett SP - Bronson Arroyo RP - Bobby Jenks RP - Dan Wheeler Bench C - Mike Piazza OF - Delmon Young OF - Josh Hamilton SS - Stephen Drew SP - Daniel Cabrera SP - Tim Wakefield SP - Phil Hughes RP - Jason Isringhausen The trade that I'm proposing to the other guy is: Berkman, Dunn, Jenks, Lackey for Carlos Beltran, Cole Hamels, and Joe Nathan He's not biting yet...any suggestions to improve it or that might be more palatable??? |

Re: Help with a trade
Saves aren't that valuable, so do you really need Nathan?
I'd try dealing Berkman, Dunn, and Jenks for Beltran and Hamels.

Re: Help with a trade
Thanks!
I tried that proposal, but they're not really wanting to budge on Hamels, and he's the one I wanted out of that deal...however, they did counter with these two proposals: Mike Gonzalez, Scott Kazmir, and Juan Pierre for Bobby Jenks and Delmon Young or Scott Kazmir, Jason Giambi, Melvin Mora, Jaun Pierre for Miguel Cabrera and Delmon Young I'm not really enamored with either one... |
