Just Traded Dee Gordon for Price

[cardboardbox]

My SP's have been weak and seem to be getting weaker so I went out and got Price for Dee Gordon. I'm kind of worried because Gordon has 40 of my 78 SB. I'm betting on Betts at 2B, hoping he stays up and gets at least 75% PT and around 20 SB the ROS. I also still have Phillips and if I can figure out if/when Betts sits I can platoon them. Betts is RH, hopefully he doesnt end up on the bad side of a platoon.

Assuming there isn't a keeper issue involved, you have to have won that trade. The talent gap between the players is too great for even the peculiarities of fantasy (in this case, the undue weight given to SB's) to make up for it.

non-keeper league.

Its a big if, but if Gordon keeps the 2B job all year and ends up with maybe 70 SB, it will have been a toss up. I was hoping that Betts would hit right away and I could use him at 2B as Gordon's replacement but no such luck. I'm now going to need to acquire some SB.
