What about this trade?
Question:Thanks all who responded to my last post.
I GET:
Carl Crawford (TB - LF)
Eric Byrnes (Ari - LF,CF,RF)
Troy Glaus (Tor - 3B,SS)
I GIVE UP:
Freddy Sánchez (Pit - 2B,3B,SS)
Matt Holliday (Col - LF)
Chone Figgins (LAA - 2B,3B,LF,CF)
My current weak spots are SS and 2B. I have Bonds, Duncan, Sosa, Holliday, and A. Jones in my outfield now.
I have F. Sanchez and C. Figgins in my infield now.
I dont think Sanchez is going to put up close to last year's numbers and I could really use an upgrade at SS...

Ok.i have a question about yahoo nascar fantasy. can you pick diff ppl each week or what.?
This is a blockbuster trade. But I believe you are giving up too much. I'll break it down.Eric Brynes is a very inconsistent player. In real life is a hustler on every play and at bat. But hustle doesn't count in fantasy. Currently he is on a VERY big slump and that D-Back lineup isn't one that can help a player get out of a slump.
Troy Glaus just came of the DL and that is not always good news. He is very injury prone and has a mild career BA. so all in all another inconsistent player.
Carl Crawford: Only birght spot in the deal.
Now you are giving up way too much. Holliday is on pace for a .340 avg. 35-40 HR's and 125+ RBI's season. While Sanchez who is the reigning Batting champ is slowly coming around. And Chone hasn't even played an inning yet this season and I know you know how good he can be on a fantasy team.
Hope this helps and do what YOU want go with the gut!
Should I trade John Lackey for Carlos Lee?
I say yes, pull the trigger since it's apparent Crawford is better than Holliday, and Byrnes is worth more for your buck than Sanchez this season.My only question is, what will you do for 2B if you make the trade?
Then i can come back in here & complete my answer, but i'd think you could make this switch comfortably.
Ortiz for a. dunn, p. fielder, and c. figgins. I give away ortiz. Is this fair?
I would try to be getting rid of Andruw Jones instead of Holliday. Holliday is one of the best OFs in MLB.Like the other guy said ... what are you going to do with 2nd? You are giving away 2 2nd basemen and you say it is already a weak spot. You are making it weaker by giving up one of the best FANTASY players in Figgins. I agree that Sanchez is a bust and I think you should trade him.
Try it like this ...
Crawford / Glaus for Sanchez / A Jones
