Fantasy Baseball Trade!!?!?!?!?

Question

I think I get sooo much out of this one. I am getting Mike Jacobs and Bill Hall for Jack Cuts. Looks like this...

OA trades Jack Cust, Oak RF to Marlins

FM trades Mike Jacobs, Fla 1B to A's

FM trades Bill Hall, Mil CF to A's

Cust is currently on my bench and Bill Hall is a slight upgrade to my current 3B, Scott Rolen (it's a deep, deep league....20 team). I have Joey Votto at first so I dont get much out of Jacobs, but he isnt half bad. Should I do it?

I mean Cust is a home run machine, but he strikes out like a mother.....so yea, opinions?

Answer 1

Hall is in a platoon and only plays against lefties. Rolen plays regularly. How is this an upgrade? Still I would probably do this deal and play Jacobs at 1B and move Votto to the OF.

Oh wait, 2 for 1, who do you have to drop? You do realize that is part of the trade?

Good luck. Have fun.

Answer 2

cust and jacobs cancel each other out so its basically getting hall for free  which isnt saying much but if your league is that deep then its definately worth it
