Thread: Trade Advice Needed ASAP

  1. #1

    Trade Advice Needed ASAP

    OK, I recently got an e-mail expressing interest in Figgins. OK, I need help, he's offered a player like Harden or Lowell, but he was pretty vague about it, leading me to believe I could get a little more.

    Here is my roster

    C J. LaRue (Cin - C)
    1B N. Johnson (Was - 1B)
    2B C. Figgins (LAA - 2B,3B,SS,OF)
    3B H. Blalock (Tex - 3B)
    SS M. Tejada (Bal - SS)
    OF J. Drew (LAD - OF)
    OF A. Dunn (Cin - 1B,OF)
    OF J. Bay (Pit - OF)
    Util C. Lee (Mil - OF)
    BN R. Freel (Cin - 2B,3B,OF)
    BN S. Hillenbrand (Tor - 1B,3B)
    DL C. JonesDL (Atl - 3B,OF)

    SP D. Davis (Mil - SP)
    SP D. Lowe (LAD - SP)
    RP E. Guardado (Sea - RP)
    RP M. Batista (Tor - SP,RP)
    P K. Brown (NYY - SP)
    P R. Clemens (Hou - SP)
    P J. Duchscherer (Oak - RP)
    BN J. Schmidt (SF - SP)
    BN L. Hernandez (WAS-SP)

    OK, as you can see, my weakness is in relief pitching, and if he had a decent but not great closer, I'd offer Figgins for Harden and X closer. However, here is his roster

    C R. Hernández (SD - C)
    1B D. Ortiz (Bos - 1B)
    2B B. Boone (Sea - 2B)
    3B M. Mora (Bal - 3B)
    SS O. Vizquel (SF - SS)
    OF M. Cameron (NYM - OF)
    OF S. Sosa (Bal - OF)
    OF B. Giles (SD - OF)
    Util A. Hill (Tor - 3B)
    BN M. Lowell (Fla - 3B)
    BN P. Feliz (SF - 1B,3B,SS,OF)
    BN L. Walker (StL - OF)

    SP R. Wolf
    SP Jo. Santana
    RP Fr. Rodríguez
    RP C. Cordero
    P C. Reitsma
    P J. Affeldt
    P J. Washburn
    BN C. Sabathia
    BN R. Oswalt
    DL M. Hampton
    DL R. Harden

    I'd love to add Harden to an already great rotation (as his other guy, I fear he will continue struggling and I have two very good 3B and another backup one or two). Ideally, after trading Figgins, I'd add Counsell who is on the FA market with some steals and decent stats who plays two of Fig's positions.

    What should I go fo. If I did ask for Harden and Cordero, who should I throw in with Figgins in return?

    Then out of fairness to the others you will be Slagathor.

    What the ****?


    Give him Figgins for Cordero straight up. You dont need SP.

    If they aren't starting tommorow (when I copied the info), what does it matter?

    Thanks for the advice.

    Really, you have a solid rotation; adding Harden won't help much.

    You have damn good rotation, you could get steals in the way of Nook Logan from Detroit or pickup Bill Hall or Felipe Lopez and get a util guy that way.
