Just hoping to get some thoughtful feedback on a situation I have in another league....



I'm in a 13 team 6X6 mixed roto league with the following categories:



Hitting - AVG, OBP, HR, R, RBI, SB

Pitching - ERA, WHIP, K-BB, W, QS & NetSaves



Currently I am leading in pitching and upper-mid pack in hitting. My weakness on offense is 3B, where I start Bill Mueller, and picked up R Branyan off of waivers. I am quickly falling behind in HR & RBIs. My Starting Pitchers are as follows (can start between 5-7 and some decent ones still available in waivers):



Jason Schmidt

Rich Harden

Chris Carpenter

Dontrelle Willis

Doug Davis

Jeff Suppan



I have previously turned down a trade of Harden for Eric Chavez straight up. They are considering a counter of Willis for Chavez. Today I was offered Aramis Ramirez for Harden, and my gut tells me to do this one. I would appreciate any comments you all might have.

update - Chavez suitor has offered Jason Lane or Jose Reyes (remember OBP counts)together with Chavez in a 2 for 1 - I am very solid in SBs already with Crawford, Furcal and others.



Thanks

Thanks alot for your response. Its not a keeper league.



I am not too sure what to expect out of Lane for the rest of the season. You believe the combo of Chavez & Lane will help me more than Ramirez on his own? To get him in my lineup, I'd have to bench Lew Ford or David Dejesus my two lowest producing outfielders (have Bradley, Drew, Luis Gonz & Crawford).

Give him Dontrell and David Dejesus for Aramis Ramirez. I don't think I'd give up Harden for Chavez.

Thanks for the input. I wound up trading Harden for Aramis Ramirez. Here's hoping he heats up soon.
