Trade Jay Bruce and recieve Derrek Lee and Justin Verlander?

Question

you think they will accept it? should i throw in mcgowan to make it better?i think i would win getting lee and verlander -maybe i could even put in the injured pena or possibly yunel escobar

Answer 1

you will need more than just Bruce unless the person you are trading to is very high on Bruce or stupid. Mcgowan might make a better deal but lee is and Verlander are proven players and Bruce is a good player on a hot streak and as a rookie outfielder will cool off.

Answer 2

Jay Bruce is at his peak value.   If you get Lee and Verlander for Jay Bruce, you MUST ACCEPT the trade.

Answer 3

Bruce is young and still relatively unknown.  He may become great, or just as easily bomb, despite his good start.  Lee is a known commodity, and Verlander, once he figures out his throwing motion problem, and the Tigers actually score some runs for him, is one of the best in the AL.  I say trade him for this pair.
