A-Rod Trade

by LouPiniellaIsRetiring on Aug 3, 2010 3:42 PM EDT

I"m in a 14 team mixed H2H category keeper league and I need some advice. I should tell you that it's standard 5x5. Currentley I'm in 13th place and I'm dealing a lot of my guys I won't keep for next year.

I really don't have any great players besides A-Rod and here's my question.

I've been offered Starlin Castro, Dominic Brown, and Aramis Ramierez for A-Rod. A-Rod is really the only power threat I have on my team so I'm hesitant to deal him so quickly. I know Castro and Brown are top prospects but is Brown or Castro going to get 15 plus home runs a year like A-Rod. I'm also worried about Brown's playing time for next year. My other concern is Ramierez. Is Ramierez going to return to his 25 plus home run 100RBI season like he usually has. And is the difference between Ramierez and A-Rod made up by Castro and Brown.

So should I make the deal or not?

Keep everyone on the roster?

If so, I do this trade. I think Ramirez will rebound just fine, and Brown and Castro are both solid keepers if you keep everyone. At worst, you could probably move any of them for some other players if you’re not sold on them.
