I have excess OF and am trying to upgrade my pitching.

Always seem to have 1 or 2 on the bench.
It's your standard lineup + 1 UT where sometimes I have Allen Craig at (Fielder at 1B).

Now the OF is: McCutchen, Adam Jones, Puig, J Upton, Carlos Gomez... and Craig.

Currently in 2nd and have already had offers rejected straight up 1 OF (Upton, Jones or Craig) for a pitcher from a lower-ranked team in the league. Who do you trade, and what kind of return should I expect?

Also, team is in 2nd, and it's a points league.

With the massive pub Puig is getting, I'd try to sell high on him first.

All your other guys shouldn't have any issues getting a tier 1 pitcher.

Definitely don't trade Craig.

Trade any of the others.

Sell high on Upton, Gomez, or Puig

Craig, McCutcheon, and Jones are solid across the board and are starting to play. Remember you're playing from this day forward

you don't think he continues the pace? I love his rbi potential and he's got the green light all season.

What's his pace? Like 40/40 or some shite

I don't think. Last I checked his balls in play was ridiculous. Reminds me of Marte but I don't expect Gomez to fall off like that. He's still good but i think I'd sell for something nice

It's redonk, his avg. will dip. I think the counting stats will be there though. no homer.

it's at 15.1%. Last year was 14.3%

Zips is projecting only a slight dip in counting stats. 40 point dip in avg.
