I have a shite ton of pitching. This was an automated draft league and I ranked all pitchers 1-30. Here's my starting pitchers:

Verlander
King Felix
Cain
Stras
Gallardo
Sabathia
Beckett
Feliz

As you can tell without me typing it out, my offense is pretty terrible. I have been talking trade with another team and I'm thinking of offering this:

Gallardo/Sabathia/Moustakas for McCutchen/Longoria


It's 5x5, BA/HR/RBI/R/SB...W/S/ERA/WHIP/Ks

14 starting hitters/9 starting pitchers.


His offense is pretty loaded (Kemp, Kinsler, Napoli, McCutch, Longoria to name a few) but his best pitchers right now are probably Trevor Cahill and Bruce Chen. Is this a fair trade for both parties?

He won't accept that unless his pitching is terrible.

Sorry. I thought he offered that. I would take the Longo side in a heartbeat.

Well, that pretty much answers my question. I'll at least start with that and see if I get a counter offer. Thanks for the input.

Trade Verlander and Sabathia. They are two big names that people are going to drool over acquiring. And you'd still have probably the top staff with Felix, Stras, Gallardo and Cain.

Including Verlander will definitely get you the best return.

I started small. I went CC Sabathia and Moustakas for Longoria to start. I'm sure we'll be countering back and forth.
