trade options

#1 Post by CubFan »

12 team AL only 5x5 H2H keeper league. Using OBP, W+QS and S+H. $100 FAAB (I have $24 left), 4 bench spots. 800 IP needed by playoffs.

Roster
C- Stassi $1
1B/3B- Vlad $39, Candelario $11, Josh Smith $1
2B/SS - Bichette $19, Bogaerts $41, Odor $8
OF - Mullins $5, Kiriloff $14, Gallo $26, Greene $26, Oscar Gonzalez $4
UT - Pena $16
SP - Gausman $27, Ray $8, Sandoval $9, Blackburn $5
RP- J Barlow $1, Duran $1, Adam $1, Castillo $1, Stanek $1
Bench - Kiermaier $2, Haniger $18, Winder $2, Larnach $4

As you can see by my roster my SP is a bit thin with only 4 SPs and Blackburn mostly a matchup guy going forward. I could stand pat and pretty much lose W+QS and Ks most weeks. I should be able to reach 800 IP with my current staff. Landed Greene last week. Couple owners have wanted to trade for him. One owner was willing to trade Gilbert $9 for him. Doing that would leave me needing an OFer. Little if anything left on waivers. Arroyo, Sheets, Phillips, Day Cameron, Upton and Marwin Gonzalez are the best of what's left. Gilbert should solidify my SP issue but could my offense have enough to compete? Lots of underperforms like Odor, Gallo, Kiriloff, Candyman and even Mullins. Make the trade?

Would Bogaerts and Gallo be enough to land Tucker $16 thru 2024? if you were the Tucker owner? I know you need more info on the Tucker team but in a vacuum should that be enough?

Not my thing to say yay or nay to a deal so...

I trust Logan Gilbert to perform a lot more than I trust Riley Greene, at least for this season.

Trades are not done in a vacuum, especially those with keeper implications. There is only one person to ask if it's enough.

Looks like I could have my choice of Pivetta or Gilbert for Greene. You favor one over the other?

Gilbert is safer, Pivetta could have a higher upside.
