Good trade? I get McCann and Scott Baker for Aramis Ramirez and Posada?

Question

I can pick up Troy Glaus off of waivers to replace Ramirez.

Answer 1

Posada is going to lose PT because he can't throw anyone out. I think something like 34 out of 37 basestealers have been successful against his weak throwing arm. McCann is a great hitting catcher. I'd make the deal.

Answer 2

At first glance, I would say yes. You improve at catcher. Posada isnt getting as many at bats due Molina starting. They have been playing him at DH, but just signed Richie Sexton.

Baker can be trade bait later. People see his name and will want him.

Grab Glaus. Remember, most of his stats came when some guy named Pujols was not playing. If the pict around Pujols, they must pitch to Ludwig and or Glaus.

Good trade

Answer 3

Well, you improve greatly at catcher, and Baker is looking good. You don't drop too much from Aramis to Glaus.

I say yes.

Good luck. Have fun.

Answer 4

This is a good as trade as it can get.

Posada may be recently hot but for a long time steady power numbers take Mcann.  Baker is hot right now too and you can sell high once if you dont need him - Ramirez probably can't be replaced completely by Glaus but I'm suprised that he is still avalible.  Glaus is more than decent.

Take the trade and Good luck
