Fixed your keeper values.most guys on this board would tell you to keep the bat.BUT, I would make this trade in a heartbeat.Lackey is a stud.

Even if Lackey is a stud the rest of the way (hardly a given), how many points do you figure to pick up in the pitching cats?

Though Berkman has cooled off some, he's still a top 10 player. For a pitcher to broach that level they need to put up monster numbers. Plus he's a relatively cheap keeper option and you're not getting a keeper in return.

im winning most hitting cats. but with wang and zambrano getting hurt...i really need a front-line starter. i can gain point in era, whip, and k's. im really targeting j santana, but the other owner is a little reluctant

You may want to try to sell high on JD Drew instead maybe for a lessor front liner if possible
