    NL only trade help please.

    12 team NL only 5x5 ultra keeper. $260 budget.

    I am in second and needing some offensive help. I have a $21b Pollack. I offered Pollock and couple of throw ins for Ian Happ 15A, Javier Baez 9b, and Joc Pederson 15 for two more years and done. He came back and said take Baez out and he will do the deal.

    Pollack will be back soon. I can wait, but I am not sure how good he will be coming back.

    Would you pull the trigger for Happ and Pederson. Pederson takes over for my Schwarber who is now in the minors.

      Schwarber should make his way back with enough time to give you 2 months of play, Pollack about 3 months so the question is--are those 5 months better for your team than the 6 months of Happ and Pederson? If he'd add Baez, I might do the deal as it gives tyou a ton of flexibility as Baez quals so many positions, otherwise I think I'd hold onto Pollack and wait for Kyle to get it fixed and return.

          Pederson's been hot since he came off the DL, Happ's looked good, and Pollock just had some complications and all of his injuries are the kind that will slow him down. I'd do it. If Happ is anything close to this good and is 2B/OF next year, he's probably still not quite as good a keeper as Pollock but he's decent.
          In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

              If I am reading this right he needs to do my original deal. Or are you suggesting that Happ and Baez would do the trick?

              Schwarbs can take my UT spot when he figures it out.

                  Joc Pederson has shown over 3+ years that he can't hit for average, and doesn't run anymore. In an NL only he's simply OK...nothing more.

                  I'd tell him to take Pederson out of the deal and put Baez back in, or no deal.

                      Happs and Baez, I'm with Horns on Pederson, though if you can get all 3--do it.
