Need some baseball trade advice?
In my league, an 8 team head-to-head league with 12 scoring categories (the ESPN standard 10 categories with OPS and QS added), I have been offered the following trade: I send Gio Gonzalez and receive Rafael Furcal.
Currently, my only SS is Jimmy Rollins, who has been fairly abysmal this year (.232 avg, 1 HR, 6 RBI, 8 SB). Furcal is definitely an upgrade here for my team since I am not confident that Rollins is going to right the ship. As for other starters, I have CJ Wilson, Clayton Kershaw, Wandy Rodriguez, Gavin Floyd, Ian Kennedy, and a couple spots that I stream.
My main concern is fairly simple, I think Furcal's numbers are way too high and that he is going to fall the Earth and I will be stuck with Rollins part 2.
Any thoughts?

I like Furcal, he has been a nice addition to my team as a replacement for Erick Aybar.
On the other hand, I really like Gio as well. I traded him right after my draft for Sale and Norris, which i dont really regret, but Gio has been pretty darn good this year.
I see your problem, that you feel Furcal will level off down the stretch, which he may. So my advice to you is to KEEP GONZALEZ. It'll be a lot harder to replace Gio than Furcal should he level off. If you really need a better shortstop, i recommend you look at free agency or trade for one. but Gio for Furcal is too high. If you're doing that trade, you'd best get another piece in that trade.
