Trading with the Reyes owner (AL-Only)

[overkill94]

10-team 5x5 (OBP) AL-Only keeper league - the guy who just lost Reyes doesn't have another SS on his team and the pickings are slim for a replacement (Maicer Izturis is the best out there, but he might even get snatched off waivers before this guy can get him). I ended the draft with 3 solid shortstops in Andrus, Aybar, and Drew. Anybody on his team look like a good match as a 1-for-1 with any of my guys or will I have to get more creative?

Man I kinda like your team. Maybe you grab one of his starters. But that guy has to be rebuilding so I'm not sure what he'd be willing to give up. Looks like you'll need to get more creative.

I was wondering if something like Shields and Drew for Verlander would work, but he'd probably want at least Aybar instead. Hosmer's in the last year of his contract, maybe Smoak and Aybar for Hosmer?

I'd rather go for Verlander.
