Draft and Trade Talk Message Board

cargo/joeybats
I've been offered CarGo, Lincecum and Ricky Romero for Carlos Santana, Jose Bautista and Josh Johnson. I would still have Molina for C and Zimmerman for 3B. My Of would be CarGo, CYoung, AJones and Markakis (with Crawford on DL). If i did the deal, my SP would be Lester, Romero, Lincecum, Gio Gonzalez and Buchholz. I'd look to move ine for a cliser now that Wilson's hurt. I shiuld do the CarGo/JoeyBats deal, you think?

Without reading everything else you said, I don't like the trade that much. Bautista is the best player in the deal and santana is the best at his position.
Taking everything else you said into consideration, this is a great deal for you. You have Zimm, so bautista 3b eligiability isn't as valuable, you take a slight dip in OF with cargo. But lincy and romero are a huge upgrade to your SP. Even if lincy falters, romero should have a great year. Johnson will be hurt by the allstar break anyways so best to get rid of him now. Molina isnt santana, but he's still pretty solid. Overall, your lineup becomes much better. Go for it. -
I would also do it. Lincecum is better than Josh Johnson, you still have Molina as catcher and also have Zimmerman at 3rd. Your outfield will get a lot better which it needs to be. I would do it.

do it

That's a tough one. Lincy scares me this year. It's not a bad trade for you, but I don't think I would. Again, its up to you
-
your getting the best players in the deal long term and yes i think Romero is going to be great this year
-
I think it's a great deal for you: CarGo headed UP, Bautista not, and you get good pitching, too. timmy will figure it out. Hard to let go of Santana, but Molina is headed for a big year this year. Go for it!
