Need a boost - make a trade. I did

When the players on the waiver wire with the most ABs are Ronnie Cedeno, Brad Hawpe, Jose Lopez, Aaron Miles & Willie Harris, you don't figure to win your league through crafty FAAB pickups. My team needed a shake up and an owner offered up a stud off to a very slow start. I had a good player off to an incredible start. So we made a little deal. I now own Hanley and he has Andre. If you trade, never think small. This was a gold plated monster deal. No idea if my floundering team will improve but I believe that things normalize and, in this case, they do not have to totally normalize for me to be happy. Regardless, I bet this will the biggest deal in this league this season.

I'm tied for first in my 10 team mix but when another owner was looking to deal Hanley I pounced. I traded M.Stanton/C.Beltran/I.Desmond/D.Storen/J.Sheilds for Hanley/R.Rayburn/R.Roberts. The fact I was able to hold onto Either/Stubbs/Haren/Hanson makes this deal even sweeter.
