2 Big Trades

[sherwood921]

I just made 2 separate deals in my h2h 14 team money league, but I'll combine it so it's easier to follow. I dealt:

 

Adam LaRoche, Zach Duke, Brad Penny, Fransisco Cordero, and Nick Swisher

 

for

 

Carlos Beltran, Chris Duncan, and Jose Valverde.

 

LaRoche was behind Adrian Gonzalez, so that wasn't a loss. Penny was definitely expendable with Peavy, Kazmir, Sabathia, Lincecum, Maine, Gorzelanny. I figure Cordero will taper off, and getting Valverde helps soften that blow a little. Losing Swisher hurts, but hopefully Duncan and Freel can fill that spot. Beltran will push Griffey to the bench along with Pence. Hopefully I can deal one for another closer/LF. I plan on picking up Accardo and maybe Blanton with the 2 extra spots. Thoughts?

It wouldn't have been a loss anyways. He's horrible so far this year.

He'll pick it up, he always stinks out of the gate.
