Ok, so its nearly impossible to trade in my league, all the other owners think that they need to LaMar you or no dice. My league just completed its second trade (both by my proposals). Wanted to test it out here because I'm skeptical of any trade that gets accepted. I traded Gomes, Reggie Sanders and Josh Johnson for Edwin Encarnacion and Jenks. Now, my situation is that I am bent over a barrell for saves, its a standard 5x5 and anyone who at all has a chance of getting a save is on someones roster. I have Street, Reitsma, and Borowski. So you can see my predicament. I like Gomes, hes going to have his ups and downs, but I'm in a roster crunch for OF with Manny and Holliday leading and doing a good job of platooning the rest. Of course Gomes hits two dingers today to further exacerbate my second guessing, but wondering what folks though. For me Encarnacion was a big factor to make it more palatable to lose Gomes' power.

When does Encarnacion get off the DL?

I'm not a fan of Sanders. I thought Gomes was a steal when I got him towards the end of my draft, and when his Yahoo ranking got real low even though he was struggling I took advantage of it. He's been pretty cold since I traded him...but I'm sure he'll heat up again. I'm also planning on picking up Josh Johnson after his next start, depending on how he does. I think it's a pretty solid deal. If you need saves, Jenks will continue to get them.

Who's your 3B? Losing Sanders is nothing, but Gomes is a beast and Johnson is a pretty solid SP. I guess if Encarnacion is a big upgrade at 3B then it's a good deal for you.

Forgot to say its a 12 team league. Yeah I never played Sanders. If he gets traded to the yanks Ill be kicking myself, but whatcha gonna do. My 3b is chipper, but right now Im platooning Shelton and W. Aybar at CI so I can really use him there until Shelton heats up again. Encarnacion will be ready when he comes off the DL in a week. I figured it was a sell high on Johnson. I think hes fine an all, but will probably be about league average from here on out with supressed wins being on the marlins. Once the league gets a good book on him and sees him the second time around his results will slide. I picked him up off the wire a couple weeks ago, so I really didn't have a lot of attachment to him. Plus I have Patterson coming back and plan on picking up Billingsly.
