Keeper league trade question
I'm in a keeper league, and I was recently proposed the trade Carlos Santana and Alex Gordon for Mike Stanton and Matt Joyce. In our league Stanton would be a free keeper this year (under 23 years old) while Santana isn't. Next year Stanton won't be a free keeper. If I do the trade, Stanton would replace Gordon as a starting OFer on my team, along with Matt Holliday and Andre Ethier. Joyce would go on the bench, and I would have to pick up a free agent catcher. Probably John Buck. Should I accept the trade?

deal
I think I wouid keep Santana and Gordon….even though I like Stanton alot. Santana has potential to be a .300 hitter with 20 HR power at catcher….not too many of those guys out there.

Also agree
I happen to have both Joyce and Santana in a keeper league and everybody and their mom inquires about Santana. He should be a top 5 player at a shallow position which is very nice. I do love Stanton, but I think your taking a bigger hit at C by giving away Santana for now and the future.
i disagree with all three of you. I do agree that Santana is or will be top 5 catcher but who really cares. While Santana is batting 300(questionable), 20hr’s(?) my man Stanton is going to be jacking 40 hr’s and 120 rbi’s for the next 7-10 years. I wish I could acquire Stanton in my league. It doesn’t really matter about getting Joyce or giving up Gordon and Santana this is an opportunity to get one of the great your power hitters in the game. no brainer. you don’t need a great catcher to win fantasy leagues. Now that being said if you could get more than Joyce than go for it. Do you have prospect rosters? get him to throw in a great minor league prospect. Don’t push your luck though.
i can tell you like stanton. i do to.
but OF’s are a dime a dozen. and there arent to many good catchers out their.
if he’s not gonna give more than joyce. its not worth it.
you cant look at the stats that santanna will put up compared to stanton. but the stats he’ll put up compared to other catchers
