I'd get Lee.

20 Team H2H Dynasty - Regular scoring with OPS and Holds

BN Carlos Pena
BN Eric Byrnes
BN Torii Hunter
BN Miguel Tejada
BN Orlando Cabrera
BN Justin Upton
BN Ty Wigginton
BN Edwin Encarnacion
BN Jason Giambi
BN Tadahito Iguchi
BN Gary Matthews Jr.

SP Joe Blanton
RP Jonathan Papelbon
BN Oliver Perez
BN Zack Greinke
BN Aaron Heilman
BN Octavio Dotel
BN Shaun Marcum
DL Noah Lowry
DL Jason Schmidt


Seems like a no-brainer since my pitching is very sub-par. I should just give up on pitchers this year and hope to come in last.
I'd be able to trade Cabrera and Giambi then for a decent pitcher.

Edit: I didn't draft this team...adopted it 5 years ago and accidentally traded away David Wright and Jake Peavy. Damn commissioner had no trade review present at the time so I was SOL. Haven't cared too much about the team but still stick with it. wallbash.gif

I do care about the team...worded wrong. I didn't care AS much after the trade accident. Then the other owner, fully knowing wouldn't reverse the trade.

I figured it was a good deal as well...
Papelbon helps with Saves, ERA and WHIP

Lee will help with HR, RBI, BA, OPS and Runs

Now I can trade for a good young pitcher with my backups.

Having only one closer in a 20 team league doesn't work when you can try for the Holds category and usually come up with the same rate pitchers with comparable ERA and WHIP.

Papelbon is one category and lends about 65 to 75 innings of help to WHIP and ERA. Lee plays every day (hopefully) and is going to help you across all the categories sans steals. I think you definitely made a good move here.
