I'm in a 12 man lge that has alot of folks upset over a recent trade.

Team A got Sizemore, Gordon, Milledge, & Blanton

for Howard, A. Soriano, Adam Laroche, & C. Patterson.

Team A is in last place in BA.

Team B is currently in 1st place overall.

Is this an unfair deal?

Team B got way more. If Team A was in first place you might be okay with it, but B is dramatically improving his already good team.

Seems relatively fair to me.

Is it a keeper or non?

Value is in the eye of the beholder. It seems fair to me. Soriano is hurt alot, and Gordon and Milledge could both be on the verge of stardom.

It is not a keeper league.

I believe Team A felt getting Blanton was necessary b/c his starting pitching staff consisted of:

Lincecum/Burnett/E. Santana/Dempster/Blackburn

I would hope that Howard and Soriano (et al) would get me a better than Sizemore and Blanton (et al). I think B got the best of that one by a comfy margin.
