How do you create leverage when trading in fantasy baseball?

Question

you have a bunch of average players, you want good ones, what do you do?

Answer 1

Offer maybe more than one of your average players for a star.  I generally look at all of the teams in the league and figure out which teams are filled with stars.  After that you need to figure out what you have to offer.  Say you want a power bat, but don't think you have the guys to trade for him, figure out what the manager of that team needs; say he is lacking in steals.  If you offer soeone on your team that is high on steals and throw in another player, you can get your man.  Another way to approach it is to find a team that has a star that is struggling.  You can get slumping stars cheaper, but run the risk of that slump continuing.

Answer 2

trade two or three average players for a superstar
