Trade Help needed please

by #42_4EVER on May 11, 2011 7:59 PM EDT

i give up Tulo, Gallardo and I get Stephen Drew and Matt Kemp. Also i can make this a 3 for 3 deal and give Delmon Young for Max Scherzer

its a 6 by 6 with ops and loses being the 2 extra stats

my of currently is pence, rios, tabata, swisher and coghlan and i can play 4 of them at a time but have been benching swish and tabata since they are slumping

what do you guys think of this trade?

Nope

Tulo is the best player at a shallow position. Yes, Kemp is a stud, but OFs are a dime a dozen. Stephen Drew has yet to show he can be healthy and productive and live up to expectations. This trade is a downgrade for your team.

No dude

Tulo is slumping right now but will hit 40 homers this year mark my words.

Tulo

with 40 HRs? Not so sure about that.

I actually think it is a fair deal, if you can don’t need the starting pitcher. Kemp is having a solid season, making 2010 look like a down year for him. Drew has been solid this season and will steal some bags as well.

Not a bad deal, but I am a Kemp fan.

not a bad deal

but I wouldn’t give up Tulo. You’d be selling low on him, unless you think he’s going to get injured again AND this isn’t a keeper league. I am a huge fan of Drew though – he’s the most underrated SS in the game (and he should be underrated, because he just can’t stay healthy and shares a last name with his brother). When he’s healthy though, he’s really really good.

I live in Colorado

and have the ability to watch him play every day. I am a Red Sox fan so this is not a homer post but every time Tulo swings the bat it could go out of the ball park. He has crazy power. He has already hit 9 this year and 4 of those have been opposite field. To hit half of your home runs opposite field is rediculous power and it shows that he can drive the pitches low and outside out of the ball park. He will hit 40… mark my words.

Kemp will start his decline shortly as well.

Tulo

I was about to say that I could hit a homer or two at Coors field also, so saying he hit Oppo Boppo a few times isn’t saying much. Then I looked at his splits. This year (SSS), he’s better away from Coors (.758 OPS home vs .961 OPS away), and last year he wasn’t as bad of a split as many others (1.034 OPS home vs .862 OPS away). I have no idea what I’m talking about…

you're trying to say

Tulo will hit 40 bombs this year =)

Kemp

will start his decline? you mean like the decline Tulo is experiencing?

well, yeah, he won’t hit over .338 all year., but he will approach 30-30 this season.

he plays on a worse team

Tulo is slumping and still has 9 home runs. He will hit 40 this year.

Not sure how

playing on a worse team affects a player. Tulo won’t hit 40.

3 for 3 deal might be worth it

getting Scherzer too by throwing in Young makes it worth it. Wouldn’t do the 2 for 2 though

by PrincetonCubs on May 12, 2011 6:39 PM EDT reply actions

yea the owner

originally asked the 2 for 2
but i felt that getting scherzer for young could help since it looks like young lost what he did last year. i may wait to see how he does coming off the injury
