Fantasy Baseball trade advice?

I have Manny and it's killing me that he's out 50 games. I was offered a trade in my fantasy baseball league and am just curious what most people think, since I know football much more than baseball.

Someone wants to send me Prince Fielder, BJ Upton and Felix Hernandez for Albert Pujols and Magglio Ordonez. I hate trading Pujols, but I need pitching and Fielder is a solid 1B, plus there's Upton's bat.

Here's my team by position:

C Benji Molina

1 Albert Pujols

2 Ian Kinsler

3 Kevin Youkilis

SS Derek Jeter

OF Carlos Lee

OF Shane Victorino

OF Vernan Wells

Util Nelson Cruz

Bench Manny Ramirez

Bench Maggio Ordonez

SP Scot Kazmir

SP Yovany Gallardo

RP Carlos Marmol

RP Jason Frasor

P Joba Chamberlain

P Aaron Harang

P Wandy Rodriguez

Bench A.J. Burnett

Bench Bret Myers

Bench B.J. Ryan

DL Diaske Matsuzaka

Any advice? Thanks!!!

    Don't do it. You have speed, so you don't need Upton (who is slumping now anyways). Hernandez is having a good start, but its the beginning of the year. You can definetly get more for Pujols. Like Texiera and a quality pitcher.

    man i wouldnt even trade ordonez for those 3 guys...upton is slumping huge right now and hernandez is not a top flight pitcher you could get for pujols, i actually like your pitching staff whats so wrong with them?? besides a couple of closers... to put things into perspective i traded pujols this year for quentin and markakis, thats the type of players you should be getting for him. try dangling your other OF to see whats out there..... maybe fileder and thats guys ace like halladay or haren for pujols.. good luck

    just remember everybody values pujols real high in leagues so you can be greedy and ask for alot more..

    yeah you can get big for pujols keep him and maybe in time you will get a better trade but pujols will have a great year if he stay healthy so good luck with you decision.

    That's still not enough for Albert. If they throw in a good closer then go for it. You are very weak in Saves.
