In a 12-team, AL-only, 5x5, I have a $6 V-Mart (and Iannetta at $10 as my second catcher if need be), so I'm considering Carlos Santana trade options. I have been offered Brandon Morrow ($16) for Carlos Santana ($15). I like Morrow well-enough and he's coming off his best season, but good hitting catchers are hard to find and can Morrow repeat last year's ERA/WHIP (which also came with a reduced K/9, 10.2 to 7.8). Plus, Morrow remains injury prone. Thoughts???

But is V-Mart catcher eligible? In CBS leagues, he's only eligible at DH or Utility since he missed all of last season."Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."

OK, I guess that I think that Santana can bring more in an only league, or you can try to trade V-Mart to him. I just don't trust Morrow to stay healthy...only 124 IP last year, and a high of 179. Just too iffy for my tastes."Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."

Thanks for the input. I decided to pass on Morrow. Too many questions involved for me to give-up potentially the league's top hitting catcher at $15. Morrow was a little lucky last year...his .252 BABIP was unsustainably low and the big drop-off in K/9 (while possibly making him a better pitcher) lessens some of his his fantasy appeal. I'll either find a more "sure thing" or live with a Santana and V-Mart catching combo for $21 combined (which appeals to me a lot).
