Fantasy trade of Manny Ramirez

by tenniscolin on Apr 19, 2010 12:13 PM EDT

I need some help. I want to trade Manny Ramirez in my Fantasy league. I have tons of power, pujols, arod, etc. I don't have very much speed, and I need relief pitching pretty desperately. I need holds and saves bad. What would be a good, fair trade for me to get something back. This is my first year playing fantasy baseball and the guys i'm playing with are very experienced. But...I'm in second place so far.

Thank you for any suggestions

Realistically, since it’s a keeper league, you need to figure out if you’re going to be able to compete for the whole season or not. If you’re going for the title this season, I would hold onto Ramirez. If you wait for the season to play out a little more, you will probably be able to move him to a team near the top for some younger talent if you decide you need the movement.

As for specific players to target, for Ramirez you should be looking for players who provide value in more categories than just steals. And I wouldn’t move him for a closer/reliever package realistically, unless you get a top-tier set.
