I have been offered Eloy Jimenez $25 for the the next four years for my Bregman $25 for the this year and next and prospect Nick Gonzalez in my deep-for-14 team mixed league (we have 30 man majors, 20 man minors). I am in win now mode, but my team is doing well enough to survive without Bregman. I also have Jose Ramirez, Eugenio Suarez, and Jose Miranda still at 3b. I have long coveted Eloy, and the extra years of him are potentially very valuable--if he can ever get right and healthy. We have high inflation in this league, so the price tags for both players are good, assuming health and production in line with projections.
But my worry is--will he ever get healthy and live up to the hype? If this offer had been made before his recent injury, I'd have done it without hesitation. And I can survive without the bat for the next 6 weeks. So, the only thing that has changed that gives me pause is the fact that he seems to always be getting hurt. So, now I have cold feet. What do you all think of Eloy and the trade offer? Long term, I could use the OFer more than the 3bman and IF healthy, the extra years are easily worth Nick Gonzales. But that seems like a big if at this point.
