Trading Oh and Thornburg for Napoli and Castillo

[Sour Masher]

I have this offer from a team in need of saves who is willing to speculate on these two in a 14 team league. I don't need the saves and don't start either guy, although Oh could bump Dyson eventually, because of his superior K rate (I also have Jansen and had Wade Davis until I traded him yesterday). On the other hand, Napoli and Castillo are also just depth. Napoli would be good to replace Chris Carter when one is hot and the other cold, but Castillo would be a back up to McCann. But my bench spots are almost all arms currently, so it would be nice to re-balance. Of the 4, only Oh, who is $5, could be a good keeper.

Is this a trade worth doing?

My guess is that you could do better for Oh, and trying to guess who's going to be hot between Napoli and Carter could drive you nuts. I'd look for a better, more consistent bat than Napoli.

This. Oh could be a top 5 closer the rest of the way. Get a good bat for him.

Oh is probably a top 15 RP even if he's not closing. I think I'd rather have one better guy for him.
