    This would not be a bad trade; Carlos Guillen is a great hitter and good stolen base threat. But remember that he does get injured more often than most shortstops. Corey Hart is someone that you will need to replace; Felix Pie is not enough to do that. As you will have an open roster spot make sure you pick up another outfielder. You are smart to hang on to Hafner as he should turn it around yet.

    If you still need pitching, pick one of your starters that you are not keeping (Snell?) and use that slot for "streaming". That is where you continually pickup a starting pitcher for the next day---this only works when you have unlimited roster moves. This strategy helps in the counting statistics (wins and strikeouts) but can harm the percentage statistics (ERA & WHIP). It may be worth the change in strategy. Good Luck!

    I don't like that trade. You say you are low on HR's. You are losing out on more homers by trading 3 offensive players for only one offensive player. Guillen is a tremendous talent, but I don't think he is going to slug for than 25 homers this season. Hart looks like a rising star. I would hold onto him. I would try other deals. If you want to get Hamels, you might want to through in Pie and one other player.

    you assert that's a factors league yet then you say you want Wins and WHIP. i anticipate you meant that's a roto league. i does not try this commerce. Jeter, Phillips, and Webb are authentic tier gamers. Pence is transforming into a real tier participant. Abreu is probable all washed up yet nonetheless we are able to recollect the previous days. Santana is the terrific pitcher interior the league noticeably interior the 2d a million/2. Victorino is likewise an extremely stable youthful participant (like Pence transforming into a real tier participant). Lowell is fading. Guillen and Hill are in simple terms familiar. Dempster is harm and that i could cost him below Accardo in any case. in case you want Santana that badly choose for a smaller commerce. you definitely need to work out what the different group desires. you're able to seem at giving up Jeter, Abreu and Accardo for Santana. in the event that they reject that replace jeter with phillips and see what happens. this could artwork out lots extra powerful for you because of the fact then you ought to %. up 2 gamers off the waivers. the terrific style of trades to do are multiple gamers for between the terrific gamers interior the league.

    Jump on that deal, you are giving up players that you can still get on the waiver wire. Hurry before the other guy realizes he is getting killed.
