would you trade roy oswalt/arod for jake peavy/Jason Bay?

Why would anyone do that?\n\nOswalt is slightly better then Peavy.\nA-Rod is much better than Jason Bay.\n\nIf you did that, don't worry - the trade would most likely be vetoed.

I am looking at your team. I looked it up on yahoo and this is what I would do. I would drop B. Hall and pick up T. Wiggington. He has 5 dingers and Hall is not that much help at all. I would drop Foulke for the next best closer you can get. Foulke will not get the job back from Papelbon. Maybe you should pick up Putz, he is in free agency. I think you can just let Gagne go. He might be done for his career. I would pick up another pitcher for him. \n\nOver all I think you have a good team. Especially when Chipper comes back.

Fantasy? or are you talking about real baseball. Fantasy. You can't go wrong with either one. In real life, what position do you need fielded. For example,  if I already have soneone like Jose Castillo at 2nd, and Jason Bay at LF (both great players), then I would take AROD to play 3rd for me. If my LF and 2nd Basemen suck, then I'd go for Soraino. It's all bout need. Also, defensively, I think AROD has the edge. Also, Arod would sell more tickets. I think I just convinced myself to take AROD.

Furrey is clearly a favorite of Mike Martz and Kitna, you should start him as Roy will be double covered and Kitna will be looking to him.  Jenkins is still probable and Droughns is a bust this year at best.

Yes a few. First thing you do, put david Wright in for Glaus, don't know why you haven't already. Next, put bay in for Gomes or Ichiro, you're call. Next, you want to trade away Glaus Swisher and Gomes or Ichiro For some pitching and a hitter in return. You're hitting is great but you're pitching needs work, so you should trade right now. You're elivers are getting you no where so get someone good. But the team looks good really

I would see if you could package the # 7 to NO for their # 11 & 15.  Word is they want Patrick O'Bryant bad!

That wouldn't be a bad trade, it has both ups and downs. Teixeira's been settling down after a hot first month. Pierre hasn't really been there so you can get your average up defeintly by trading them away and getting Hafner and Roberts. The only thing is your going to find a pitcher that you can replace Zito with because hes been pitching very well this season. Perhaps a Madduz or Millwood. Peavy has also been lights out as of late.  I'd say go for it, make the trade, and then try to find some pitching. Your offense should defeintly benefit though.

I'd trade T. Hunter and C. Floyd for a premier colser. Maybe J. Isringhausen, B. Jenks, or M. Rivera or maybe even J. Papelbon or F. Rodriguez.\nDon't take the trade. C. Floyd is very good trade bait. While R. Cano isn't that good of trade bait. Look for J. Borowski(Flo-RP), S. Camp(TB-RP) he's goin to take over the closing job in TB cuz T. Walker is on the DL. I'd would alos look into trading J. WEstbrook or T. Armas for T. Hoffman or M. Gonzalez, closers that don't get that much oppurtunities but will give u a save here and there.\nAnd that Japenese guy for the Dodgers. He's good.

Sidney Ponson is a good candidate to be traded because of his low salary and right now he is very appealing to teams like Arizona, Toronto, Atlanta and Chicago. After that it is Adam Wainwright.

if you can get pujos or arod that'd be great but I doubt someone will trade one of them for what you are offering. What you want to get all depends on what you need. Do you have homerun hitters, sb threats, an RBI guy? What kind of stats does your league keep?

you have to think about this logically, player by player. A-rod will have protection from his entire lineup, so he will obviously get pitches to hit, he'll have at least 35 HR with 140 RBI. Josh beckett is much better than zambrano. Becket is way more intense and will get a ton of run support. Jimmy rollins will hit 350 while jeter will probably hit 310.  All in All i think the trade will benefit your opponent, i would keep becket and A-rod. I would NOT do this trade.

Hell yeah dude!!!! I noe u're thinkin that givin up Hafner and Damon is a little too much, but u get ALBERT PUJOLS!!! AND B. HALL!!!!!! DUDE, U R SOOOOO LUCKY!!! U EVEN ASKING????U'LL PUT N. SWISSER(OAK-1B,OF) IN THE OF AND PUT PUJOLS AT 1B AND PUT P. FIELDER AS THE UTIL CUZ HE TEARIN IT UP RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!\nim suprised he gave u a. pujols AND b. hall.\nbtw, dont listen to jondogg cuz he a big fatass lier, no1 would offer hafner, crede(the best 3rd baseman in the AL), and R. Sexson just for A. Otsuka.and even if some1 did, he's even stupider not 2 exept that trade. now tell me, woudl u listen to a stupid person???\nI greatly appreciate for picking me best answer several times. Don't drop B. Hall unless u have a good closer or OF on the market. Put B. Hall, K. Youkilis, and E. Santana on the trading block. Probably no1 will bite but, it wont hurt u.Maybe put W. Rodriguez on the block 2. And put C. Schilling in there immediatly!!! and also put E. Santana on there for V. Padilla and M. Mussina in there for D. Cabrera. Actually drop him.\nPick up C. Granderson(Det-OF) if he isn't taken already.\nHere are guys u want to drop:\nD. Cabrera(Bal-SP)\nV. Padilla(Tex-SP)\nD. Bush(Mil-SP)\nW. Rodriguez(Hou-SP)\nGuys that you can trade:\nT. Hunter(Min-OF)\nA. Kearns(Cin-OF)\nE. Santana(LAA-SP)\nK. Youkilis(Bos-1B,3B)\n\nYour needs:\nAtleast 1 more closer, a productive OF\nPossible trades:\nT. Hunter and E. Santana for J. Dye(CWS-OF)\nA. Kearns and K. Youkilis for A. Otsuka(Tex-RP)\nLook out for closers on the waivers. I had closer problems on both of my fantasy baseball teams.\nOn 1 team I only had B. Wagner and then I picked up A. Otsuka(Tex-RP) and M. Gonzalez(Pit-RP).On my other team I only had D. Turnbow(Mil-RP), then someone dropped B. Wickman(Cle-RP). And after that I picked up J. Borowski(Flo-RP). Good luck pal. \n\nps i think your team will do fine, a team can't be absolutely 100% perfect.Atleast u have B. Wagner.

He probably won't take it even as bad as Zambrano has been you are totally taking him on that deal.  Martinez is much better than Lopez.  Colon is injured.  You get a 40 save closer on top of that.  Hafner is not much worse than Ortiz if at all.  I would do the trade if I were you doubt he would though

There are such things as untouchables in fantasy baseball... A few years ago, it was Bonds... But right now, I'd say the two untouchables are A-Rod and Pujols... There is just no way you can justify trading these guys... They are the foundation of your team... \n\nNow, trading A-Rod for Podsednik and Carpenter is not a good deal... Last year, A-Rod put up 124 R, 48 HR, and 130 RBIs... Now those are GREAT numbers for a 3B... At the same time, Podsednik put up 80 R, 0 HR, 25 RBIs but did have 59 SB to A-Rods 3... This all came from an OF spot... And Carpenter just put up a 21 and 5 W-L record with a 2.83 ERA and 213 K's... Now to analyze how they might do this year... A-Rod's line-up has only added a leadoff hitter, which New York lacked all last year... So, A-Rod is hitting in a better line-up this year than last... That only makes his chances of having as good of or better year than last year better... Podsednik will get you steals and that is about it... That is his only value... You could probably get him by trading a second-tier player but not an untouchable! Carpenter is a little trickier... He had an amazing year last year and is following that up with a pretty good year so far...BUT, Carpenter has only had one good year and one truly great year... and pitchers can tend to be fickle...although I would personally love to have him on my team, I could not justify trading A-Rod away for him... I look at it this way... A-Rod is worth two average players worth of production... Carpenter is worth maybe a pitcher and a halfs worth of production (although you'll probably miss out on the sparkling ERA)... \n\nAfter saying all that, I would not make this trade unless you really feel the need for SB's and your pitching is headed by Jon Leiber...

Dont go for guys like Brandon Phillips or earlier in the year Jason Smith because they r not guys who will put up great numbers for long.I'd put Clemens on the bench.that's what i did because i have him. u have 2 many guys on the bench!!!!Chris Burke should not be the Util player. Put someone like Alou or atleast Rios at Util. Espiacially take advantage of Rios being hot right now!!!!! DO NOT BENCH HIM!!!!!!!\nC Javy Lopez-I know, u want 2 trade him because he's not producing right now, but I have him for a reason, he'll start hitting.(He better!)\n1B-Paul Konerko-Good. Exept for David Ortiz, Jim Thome, and Albert Pujols, he the best.\n2B-Brandon Phillips-Get a Jose Vidro or Josh Barfield, even those guys r goin 2 b better.\nSS-Orlando Cabrera-Your choice, I'd trade him in a package deal with someone like Jason Marquis $ Joe Crede and get a guy like Kevin Mench.\n3B-Joe Crede-Trade\nKent and Overbay keep\nJermaine Dye and Chad Tracy might want 2 hit the bench. Alu and Rios workin.\nUtil-Burke-Drop\nYour Bench is VERY good.(for a bench)\nOnce Lee and Griffey start playin, ull be hard 2 beat.\nEspiacially with that good pitching!

Trade deadline is off but I would have trade Theodore against something else than a goalie. Or I would've wait after the summer so we can have more than just David Aebisher. To answer your queston precisely I think A forward would've been great. Brad Richard against Theodore would have been great
