Thoughts on a trade

Ive been offered Ichiro and Roy Oswalt for Harang and Jay Bruce.


Thoughts?

Re: Thoughts on a trade

I would say without a doubt. We all love Jay Bruce, but he is a rookie and in the middle of a fairly weak lineup and you are getting a proven top 50 player who can potentially be a top 30 player in Ichiro. Oswalt looks like he is getting back on track after his last few starts and Harang is still up in the air. But both can be very good pitchers, with Oswalt having the edge.

I would say take it and run, unless it is a keeper league where you control Bruce cheap for 3 years. Ichiro is slowing down and won't be as cost affective the next 2 years unless you are just wanting a rent a player for the stretch run this year.
