hey fellas, love the fantasy forum i really hope this takes off...i know we have some bright minds at SBR so i wanted to seek an opinion on this trade offered to me:

he trades: ryan dempster and tommy hanson
i trade: curtis granderson

this could really be a big hit to boost my pitching staff, only problem is i have no outfielders really (berkman and brett gardner on the DL, other guys are marlon byrd, allen craig, angel pagan...not exactly worldbeaters lol)

my top pitcher is cliff lee (also DL) and i also have ricky romero, masterson, zambrano, jaime garcia, lilly and D lowe

what do you guys think? any input is much appreciated

[Nismo]

I don't like the trade. Your OF needs more help than your pitching staff.

your pitching is fine, granderson is a keeper 9hr 17rbi's before tonights game

[ttwarrior1]

grand side wins

[oiler]

i like the trade considering u do seem to have solid pitching and granderson can do it all

[dudekid]

thank you guys for all the input, its 12 man a daily h2h league...and yes you guys are right i think i have to keep granderson, my outfield will be better with big puma and brett gardner back but still granderson is the best one i got...as for pitching i think i am looking too much into ryan dempster's hot start, he wont get a ton of wins and he definitely wont keep pitching like he is now (guy can be a gascan/walk machine) so i think i'll stand pat...thanks for all the advice!

[EmpireMaker]

Dempster isn't that reliable and Granderson is solid looks like your outfield needs moree help then your pitching staff, I say stand pat.

[Robber]

You can't afford to trade grandersOn your of is too weak

[dudekid]

I would pick up Matt Cain if I were you.

is this serious? i think 99% of people who play fantasy baseball would pick up matt cain if that were a possibility

[BigSpoon]

How about cc sabathia? Is he available?

Since his outfield is weak I would suggest scouring the the waiver wire to see if Matt Kemp, Ryan Braun or Josh Hamilton are available instead.

[Jericholic]

No way I make that trade, you're already pretty solid at P.

[Robber]

I think this is solid advice! I would also pick up Jose Reyes off the waivers.

Lol yes don't forget Halladay lincecum and cliff lee


Fun

I agree with what's been said.

You shouldn't do it. You'd have to drop a guy, plus the starting pitching you're getting isn't that good. It would make your OF weak.

[BigSpoon]

You should try and get Matt Wieters. He's a catcher for the Baltimore Orioles.

[yisman]

You didn't comment on any of my suggestions...

yeah I'd go after reyes and wieters. Also see if Derek Jeter is on waivers.

[BigSpoon]

Also see if Derek Jeter is on waivers.

Is he a new rookie player? I've never heard of him before. Will have to look him up on google.

[BigSpoon]

I think he just came out of AAA

Actually, I did some research and he's been the starting shortstop for the Yankees for the last 17 seasons. I'm not that good at this fantasy baseball thing.
