Thanks for the thought out response. On the first deal, I'm basically banking on it being somebody who overvalues Teahen(he's either a Royals or Cardinals fan, like everyone in the league except me) and/or having an irrational hatred of Dunn. I'm also hoping for more of a reputation view of Freel/Peralta, remembering Freel's steals and versatility, and remembering Peralta's crappy 2006(fortunately he doesn't have Peralta starting). On the second deal, I've been after Glaus for quite a while because he can add power at SS. My team is littered with guys who are either a plus in AVG or at least won't hurt me(Dunn would be one if I got him), so I think I can afford to give away some AVG to get the extra HR that Glaus will provide. That said, I certainly don't mind going after Manny, but if the Dunn deal goes through then I'd be benching one of Hawpe/Ordonez while having Peralta/Tulowitzki at SS. Not quite the net gain I'd hope for. Maybe if the Dunn deal doesn't happen I'll try a larger deal for Glaus+Manny, I know for sure that guy is a huge Teahen fan.
