Sorry, sent from phone. Also have Stubbs on my bench... Not that he really matters so far this year.

Thanks guys!

With no one to sub in at 2B or MI?

Pass.

He has offered to include Espinosa (since he was going to cut him). Neil Walker is available on WW.

I've been trying to come up with a reason to say you should make this trade, but I think I'd pass.

I think it's a fair deal, for the most part, and it should hurt to land someone like Prince. This is the sort of trade that highlights why it's so tough to trade for a true stud though. Any less and you aren't paying enough, but this deal probably makes your team worse.

I actually do like Espinosa. His inclusion almost makes me say go for it, but it's so hard to find power/speed MI's that won't kill your average. It's a tough pill to give up 2 of them, along with a very good, underappreciated OF (even if you don't completely need him).

Pretty fair deal and I wouldn't think you're crazy to take it. I probably couldn't do it though.

I wouldn't do it as it kills you in the MI.

I ended up doing this trade and trading for Kipnis to fill in at MI and picked up Neil Walker for my bench.
