Is Nate McLouth and Cliff Lee for Albert Pujols a complete ripoff trade proposal?

Question

trying to get pujols, taking advantage of the fact that he's on the DL right now...

Answer 1

I would keep the two that you got......

Answer 2

Let me preface my response by saying that I have been doing yahoo sports for years now.  I have four profiles.  Three of them are in the 80's and one in the 70's.  I am very good at fantasy baseball and have one a lot of leagues (public and private).  I am not bragging either.  I am just letting you know that I am a very good judge of talent and am very active with my teams (make necessary trades etc.).

I like where your head is at in terms of trying to get Pujols while the stock is low.  Cliff Lee is coming back down to earth over the last month or so.  Nate McClouth will be solid all year.  

In my opinion:

If you have 2 starters comparable to Lee and a few starters after that who are a tier down but still give you good outings more times than not AND you have at least two solid OF's other than McClouth I would probably pull the trigger.  

I am not sure who you currently have as a 1B or UTIL.  If you have a UTIL player that can go OF I would definitely consider pulling the trigger.  I am assuming you do not have another 1B you can play- or if you do then obviously one goes UTIl and the other goes 1B.

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

This is a good question, i have Albert, and cliff lee on my team, and cliff has helped me out alot, and well albert has also. He will be out around 3-4 weeks. In my opinion if you have good hiters that, and a solid picthing staff go for it, we don't know how albert will do once he is back, but it's a good risk you should take. Take it, just make sure that the guy you have on 1b now is helping out, maybe not like albert but at least he is pushing it for the time. At the start of the season i had a feeling albert would get hurt, so i got Lonely from dogers, hope this helps
