Fantasy Baseball Trade, Thoughts?

I am trading Brian Giles for Howie Kendrick.

I need back up for Konerko at 1B and Barfield at 2B and next best on waiver is Conor Jackson.

I already have a solid OF - Carlos Lee, Hideki Matsui, Juan Pierre, Rocco Baldelli, Moises Alou and Ryan Freel (who also qual as 2B).

    nice trade Howie Kendrick and Josh Barfield you got possibly the biggest sleepers in the MLB Barfield coming from a brilliant year in San Diego, Kendrick is a top sleeper in my book i seen him twice on TV and it seems he lacks in plate discipline and the ability to recognize. In a good point he makes good contact and developing in power. before i get into Brain Giles, you have great OF you got power, a devoted hitter, and speed. Alright Giles i haven't really like so to me it was a good trade, but other people would agree with me because last season he had his lowest average in his career(.263) and he is 36 meaning i t will most likely continue to lower to me Giles has been decreasing since 2004 and will continue.

    sounds love this is a keeper league by potential of what he's attempting to get off your hands. Posey will outperform Mauer this year yet he won't provide you kemp and Teixeira with out you giving him Posey along with his 1B eligibility. Kemp gets a reasonable area over Crawford in simple terms through fact no person knows how reliable Crawford's 2d year in Boston would be now that he's used to it. the two are 5-cat adult men and Kemp replaced right into a homer removed from the 40/40 club so he's an athletic freak. Chalk one up for you. Adam Lind has so a lot extra power potential than Freeman does, comparable with Teixeira. The Blue Jays offense is going to be ridiculous this year and Lind is gonna be suitable on the middle of it batting in the back of Bautista maximum in all hazard. one extra for you. Posey gets you extra effectual standard numbers than Teixeira will and in the event that they stay healthful the two Lind and Kemp are adult men in the neighbourhood of 40 domicile runs come playoff time. you do no longer inevitably desire his stats yet he's in there so as which you will provide up Buster. Now it fairly is Choo and Ethier i might positioned as a push, neither are elite gamers. Ethier had an spectacular string of video games the place he prepare a hitting streak that left a lot of jaws on the floor yet his numbers exterior of that streak have been in simple terms decent. standard i might say this is a robust commerce, you're getting a potential NL MVP and a pair of in line with hazard even 3 silver slugger applicants if Teixeira and Lind can shop their averages above the .270 mark which for hitters like those adult men is kinda hard, yet isn't impossible. What you're giving up is a few intense-high quality youthful expertise and a breakout candidate on the elite-OF place with Crawford.
