Fantasy Sports - May 2007

Alright fantasy folks, heres my question.

Scott Kazmir and John Maine
for
James Shields and Tim Lincecum

I have the James Shields and Lincecum part of the deal, but I was wondering if this was a fair trade or not. Give me your opinions.

Also, what about a James Shields and Lincecum for Dan Haren trade?

I’m planning on shopping around in my league to upgrade my hitting and I have narrowed down my target list to 5 guys. Basically, I’m looking for the best hitter I can get from this group in a 5X5 non-keeper league. I just want to get some thoughts on how you project these guys for the rest of the season and I would like it if each of you would rank them in order for me. Don’t worry about their position eligibility, I’m purely planning on using the player in my utility spot and letting them swat.

Here are the guys:

Teixeira
Berkman
Carlos Lee
Ryan Howard
Morneau



I know they tend to be of similar value, which is what makes this so difficult but I appreciate the rankings and opinions for these guys.

This is a 10 man league with 2 spots to each position so dont say anything about having him. He is my starter along with Guillen. I have some choices on the FA list here they are: Brendan Harris, Yuniesky Betancourt, Damion Easley, Maicer Izturis, Jason Bartlett, Omar Vizquel, Tony F. Peña, or should i keep him?

A trade was proposed to me and I am having a dilemma about whether to accept it.

I get Giambi (nyy).

They get Thomas (tor)

Their stats are similar, except that Giambi has a highter batting average. But Giambi also has the steroids problem.

Should I accept or reject?

Just out of curiosity, would it be a good idea to trade Barry Bonds and Barry Zito for Cliff lee, Brandon Webb, and David Wright?

Statistically I am way ahead on Home Runs, Bonds walks a ton, and I'm dead-last in strikeouts.

I have Chipper and Upton to play 3rd already, but have Beltran, Tori Hunter, and Sizemore in the OF.

My starting pitching isn't so great, Zito, Verlander, Meche, Blanton, Glavine, Javier Vasquez, and Freddy Garcia. I have Rich Harden on the DL, hopefully coming back soon.

I see Cliff Lee as a direct replacement for Zito, and Webb is a pretty good pitcher. Wright hasn't hit his stride yet, but Bonds draws a ton of walks plus an insane OBP. The downside of Bonds is he takes more days off and he's injury-prone.

Any advice?

I offered someone Edgar Renteria, Jason Marquis, and Gary Matthews Jr. for Jose Reyes and Salomon Torres.

Good trade or not? I think I did a good job in trading Marquis while he's overperforming, because his split stats show he doesn't do well late. Renteria was doing well, but I needed SB and AVG over HR and RBI. Matthews Jr. has been on a hot streak, but I don't expect it to last, and Torres is a good closer, and gets saves which I need.

The top team (10 teams) in my league offered me this trade. I'd be giving up Sizemore and could use some power. Do you think Fielder is the real deal and will Mauer return to form? I already have Crawford and Hanley for SB's. My Starting catchers are Pudge and Doumit. I have Adrian Gonzalez at 1st but can put Fielder at Util? What do you guys think of this deal. I know two for one is seldom a good idea but this seems to make sense. Thoughts?

I didnt get a good OF during the draft other than Torri Hunter and DL have hurt me. I am thinking of getting Ken Griffey JR for Josh Hamilton (I got Josh during Nick Markasis slump). Hunter Pence is also available. I also have Robinson Cano who has been replaced by Dan Uggla as my full time 2B and moved Sammy Sosa as my Util player with Torri Hunter and Shane Victorino as my other OF. This is a mix league and no keepers. Chris Young, Troy Glaus, Johnny Peralta, and Geoff Jinkons are also available off waivers on May 19. I have Jones playing 3B with Eric Chavez as backup, Mauer as and V. Martinez as Catcher, Adrian Gonzalez 1B. Thanks

First offered Vernon Wells for Derek Lee, knowing the guy had Pujols. Then he countered offered Vernon Wells, Chase Utley, and Billy Wagner for Derek Lee, Robinson Cano, and Aaron Heilman. Which was a HELL NO! Now I'm counter offering his offer with Jermaine Dye and Billy Wagner for Derek Lee... Tell me what you think???? I have Nathan, Reyes, and Wheeler left @ RP

I have an interesting trade offer. I was offered Chase Utley for Grady Sizemore. My current 2B is Brian Roberts and I have Bobby Abreu on my bench. Abreu has obviously been struggling, but Sizemore isn't exactly setting the world on fire. I want to pull the trigger on Utley for Sizemore but something is holding me back???

2007-05-15 01:41:04 · 6 answers · asked by Tigers in 07 1

I get: Bobby Abreu (NYY -OF) & Adrián González (SD - 1B)

I give: Tom Gorzelanny (Pit - SP) & Gary Matthews Jr. (LAA - OF)

- I am doubting that Abreu will do good and Adrián González wil remain hot the whole year.

- However, if I do this trade, I could trade away Giambi

- Is Gorzelanny to good to trade away

-There are better OF free agents than Matthews (Sosa)


MY TEAM:

C: Bengie Molina
1B: Jason Giambi
2B:Ian Kinsler
3B: Chone Figgins

OF:Adam Dunn

This guy in my league keeps trying to get Justin morneau from me. he does offer a good player in derek lee.

before i traded him carl crawford for alfonso soriano.

then he offered me beltran for crawford which i denied. but now I want beltran but don't want to give up crawford.

I posted a bulletin saying i want to get rid of mariano rivera because he is struggling right now.

So the current trade offer is Derek Lee and Chad Cordero for Justin Morneau and Mariano Rivera.

I made a counter offer and added Beltran for Josh Hamilton.. but he is not going to go for that.

My other oldfielders are Geoff Jenkins, Magglio Ordonez, and Nick Swisher.. Plus the ones you've seen already Hamilton and Crawford..

Oh yeah and should I drop Jason Giambi or is he going to work through this foot injury and keep up his hot bat.
