Need AL trade help ASAP

Who do you like better for 2012:

A) Jennings 11 / Reynolds 17 / McCarthy 10
B) Conger 7 OR Olivo 4 / Hosmer 10 / Reddick 10 / Britton 10

If (A), would adding one of Masterson 1, Sale 10, Brantley 8, Gordon 8 or Laporta 2 sway the deal?

I am working on a dump trade and he threw me a curve and asked for Jennings. I know Hosmer and Britton may be the only freezes but I mentioned the other 2 just in case.

I'd rank those guys roughly:

Jennings 11
~~~~
Gordon 8
Hosmer 10
Masterson 1
~~~~~
Reddick 10
Brantley 8
~~~~
Laporta 2
Conger 7
Britton 10
Sale 10

Do you have a lot of other keepers worth having? I might rather try to get a package for Jennings in the off-season if you need to do it, but if you can get Gordon, Hosmer, Reddick then maybe I'd think about it.

[virgonomic]

I have some good and some ok potential keepers so far:

Carp 10
Hardy 10
Reynolds 17
Jennings 11
Melky 2
Cain 7
Buehrle 2
Pineda 8
Drabek 4
Bard 5
McGee 7
Capps 8

I'm not sure how much he gains getting Napoli/Reynolds/EE/Jennings and giving up Gordon/Hosmer/Reddick. He is in 4th and playing to stay there, so he won't give up the farm.

ETA: He's holding to Conger/Hosmer/Reddick/Britton. Is that enough?

[joncarlos]

Honestly I'd hang onto Jennings. I know that's asking a lot of him but he has the wheels to make it work.

[virgonomic]

Sounds good. Thanks for your help, jc.

Which pair for 2011?

Conger 7 / Hosmer 10
or
Kipnis 10 / CDavis 10

[joncarlos]

I'd take Hosmer over Kipnis and don't think either of the others will be a keeper

Thanks. A team I'm chasing just landed Cuddyer/Wells/Romero/Ubaldo/Soria so I'll give him Napoli/Reynolds/McCarthy for Conger/Hosmer.

Was offered Laporta 8 / Reddick 10 for a lame duck EE and Carp 10.

Who's the better bet in 2012, Carp or Reddick?

I'd take Reddick

I had a feeling you would. Trade accepted. Thanks.
