I give: Prince Fielder, Mark Buehrle, and Josh Beckett

Should I pull the trigger on this trade or not?

    Here is my overall ranking for the second half:

    Dan Haren: 59

    Nate Mclouth: 48

    Garret Atkins: NR

    Jair Jurrjens: 161

    U give:

    Prince Fielder: 11

    Mark Buerhle: 172

    Josh Beckett: 53

    I would not do the deal. Beckett and haren are about the same becket is better, buerhle and jurjjens are the same jurjjens is better and nate mclouth i think will be the 18th best OF the rest of the way. but u have to give up prince who i think is the #11 overall player in the 2nd half.

    the only way i would do this is if you needed an OF and had a solid 1B backup for prince.

    No I woudldn't. Fielder is having an All-Star year obviously, Buehrle and Beckett are having very solid year's pitching. You are getting the number one fantasy pitcher , and a good pitcher in Jurrjens, but the two hitters you're getting don't add up to the numbers you'll get with Fielder. Atkins is terrible this year and I wouldn't even want him on my team. I think I'd decline the trade.

  • No Fielder is the key here. You are not getting a similar player/prospect in return. Atkins is having a down season as well.

    I wouldn't and I will tell you why,

    Haren for Beckett = fair

    Buerhle for Jurgens = you lose

    Mclouth and Atkins for Fielder = you lose on this one also

    Bad trade for you my friend

    you're gentle with this commerce for the reason which you have the 10th rated 2b to change the 4th rated 2b? Kemp is significant to this commerce. he's a ton! this could upload some punch on your OF and Berkman isn't an magnificent drop from Pujols. i could in all probability take the deal whether i became into uncomfortable with Cano and Polanco.
