Ichiro for Zambrano?

Question

Who gets the better deal here.

I Get Zambrano, He gets Ichiro

This is my team right now (only 6 teams):

C- r martin

1b- derrek lee

2b- ian kinsler

3b- ryan braun

ss- hanley ramirez

of- ichiro, quentin, crawford

util- adrian gonzalez, ludwick

bn- a. huff, conor jackson, jd drew

dl- chipper jones

sp- santana, webb, dempster, duchscherer

rp- rivera, soria, gregg

bn- sabathia, billingsley

dl- kerry wood

I was going to do this because I have tons of good OF and even though I have a great pitching staff, I'm 5-11-1 in the ERA category and 7-10 in the WHIP category. Zambrano's ERA is 2.80 and his WHIP is 1.22

Answer 1

Tough call.How are you on stolen bases?You trade Ichiro you drop in that category.You have Santana who is always awesome the second half.You have Sabathia who is rocking and with a winning team now.I see you moving up in the pitching points without the trade.Zombrano slumps every year and he hasnt yet this year.There is no way Zombrano keeps the ERA and WHIP that low.He is a power pitcher.

Answer 2

Take Zambrano.

Your Bench is great, Huff has been playing very well lately, you can play him.  Your Steals will come from HanRam, Crawford(Slumping but will warm-up soon), and Kinsler.

Since its head-to-head, you can play as many pitchers as you want, so Zambrano will aid you even more.  He has been under control this month with a WHIP under 1.00.

Good Luck!

Answer 3

Bad deal. I would never give up ichiro because he is always solid and never on the dl. Carlos can be hot at times, yet other times he can rack up some era!! Do not do the trade because u need to keep onto your of player because he plays everyday and helps u get pts each day. having a pitcher pitch every 5th day, isn't going to help u win your league.

Answer 4

I'd keep Ichiro. He's gonna produce everyday while Zambrano gets points every 5 days.
