I'm shipping Pujols, McCutchen, and Heyward for Kershaw, Choo, and Freddie Freeman.

Some background: I am in need of pitching, and IMO there's no difference between Pujols and Freeman especially this year with the nasty slump that Albert is in. A downside is that I'm definitely taking a downgrade in the OF department, though I acquired Heyward for next to nothing so I don't consider it a bad loss.

Here's my current roster, 12 team H2H w/ categories:

C Jesus Montero
1B Albert Pujols
2B Brandon Phillips
3B Edwin Encarnacion
SS Jose Reyes
OF Jay Bruce
OF Andrew McCutchen
OF Jason Heyward
Util Adam Dunn

Bench:
Bryce Harper
Robert Andino
Desmond Jennings
Rickie Weeks

Pitching:
Starters:
Shaun Marcum
Adam Wainwright
MadBum
Gio Gonzalez
Carlos Zambrano
Daniel Hudson (DL)

RP:
Sean Marshall
Chris Perez
Rafael Soriano

Let me know what ya'll think.

Unless you can trade one of those guys straight up for Kershaw, leave it alone. Your team is good. If anything, wait until Pujols heats up a bit and deal him for Kershaw. Wainwright will emerge as an ace and MadBum, Gio and Marcum are a nice 2,3,4.

And what you acquired Heyward for is irrelevant when it comes to trading him.
