16 team Dynasty Points League
Well, not the entire Braves but close enough. As a Braves fan I want to make sure I'm not mis-equating the players from the Braves here.
I've been offered the following:
Craig Kimbrel (216)
Kris Medlen (57)
Andrelton Simmons (145.5)
for
Verlander (253.25)
David DeJesus (138)
1st Round Minor League pick.
The numbers in parenthesis are what the players have scored to date in this league this season and their 3 year average.
Medlen's numbers are low because of tough luck losses. If he had just 4 more wins and 4 fewer losses it'd be a 60 point swing by itself. I feel like he'll get a better and his numbers should balance out a bit. I don't think he's as good as he was in the second half of last year, but I do think he's better than this.
I'm currently running out Pete Kozma at SS, so that would be an upgrade and Kimbrel is obviously an elite reliever.
My rotation if I did this deal would become:
Greinke
Cain
Shields
CJ Wilson
Medlen
Arroyo
Which I think is still pretty good in a points league that values SPs so highly. Nonetheless, trading Verlander in a format where when he is at his best he is king is tough.
Thoughts?
