I'm having post-trade regrets here, 14 team mixed league. I just pulled this trade off. I had Albies locked up for $15 for the next year years, and Sanchez is $2, and I think he could have a good year and be a decent keeper. Sale and Davis are at unkeepable prices. I now have a gaping hole at 2b, with just Marwin Gonzalez and Kolten Wong there (he has been great, but it can't last, right?). I also just bumped 2-3 really solid bats from my util spot for Davis. I felt I was getting the better end of this deal, but maybe not at the moment for my current line up. I'm hoping I can move a corner or OFer for a 2b upgrade now, but I don't see any options out there.
I would not have dealt a cheap Albies for just Davis, especially given my line up. And I wouldn't have trade Albies and Sanchez for Davis and some mid tier starter. I'm hoping Sale ends up more than that. Did I pull off a good buy low, or did I trade one of my better keepers and a promising cheap arm for a great DH and a washed up former ace?
