Answer 1

whay are you talking about?

Answer 2

good deal..

Answer 3

I cant believe people are telling you to do this deal. Once you get rid of Cabrera and Gonzalez, your only deep threat is Nady. Thats scary, considering he is bound to slow down a bit. You do need SB's, which Reyes would give you, but thats because you give up runs, homeruns, and rbi's. Kerry Wood is not needed on your team because you have Fuentes and Papelbon. Stick with Cabrera, he is a fantastic hitter and will turn it up in the second half.

Without knowing your team, I wouldve said this is an alright trade. But your team does not need this trade. Dont do it.

Answer 4

no,

Cabrera can be played at 1st/3rd (at least in my league, which plays players at multiple positions) and will eventually start to swing

Gonzalez is doing well

Yunel is flexible 2nd/3rd/SS

obviously, you seem to have a very big problem. not just one but three gigantic problems.

1.) who will going to play 1B or 3B in your team now after giving up Yunel and Cabrera?  Yunel provides position flexibility and stability to your team and giving him up will create a huge problem.

2.) obviously, you have a stockpile of outfielders in your team, so what's the use of adding another OF, who is also very inconsistent as well.

3.) Kerry Wood will be a great addition to your team. but since you are giving up Cabrera and Gonzales, why dont you ask for Lidge instead and not just settle for Wood?

if you really want to get Reyes, then you can give up Cabrera but if he really wants to add Yunel in the mix then ask for Mark DeRosa (who is also a multi-positional player like Yunel) and not Cuddyer. Forget about Wood, you are doing well with Papelbon and Fuentes as your closers. but if he is still insist on getting Adrian, then ask for Lidge.

for me, I wouldn't make any trade anymore because you have a strong team to begin with. but if he wants to get Yunel Escobar, Adrian Gonzales and Michael Cabrera, then ask for Mark DeRosa, Jose Reyes and Brad Lidge. and that my friend, will be a fair trade.

so obviously those who posted that this trade is a fair one, doesn't really know what will hit them afterwards. all because they are blinded by Jose Reyes.

Answer 7

I would probably do that trade.

Answer 8

hecks yea do it!!!!! jose reyes is so sickk

Answer 9

do it do it now before he knows what hes done

Answer 10

Good deal and awesome team compared to his

Answer 11

it looks even until i see who will play 1st Lowell and if so then who will play 3rd? plus you have already have a top closer in pap. Wood can get injured, and Cudyer hasn't done anything. So the only major impact is the hot Reyes right now.
