My league knows my infatuation with Braun and he was picked 11th overall just because I had 12th and the owner thought he could milk me for him.

THIS IS A 3 MAN KEEPER

12 Team League

6 x 6 with OPS and head 2 head....

I dealt...

Kinsler, Aramis Ramirez and Vernon Wells

For

Brian Roberts, Braun, and Damon.

I was week in the speed and avg department and heavy in the power department. I don't think Vernon Wells bounces back. Here's my new squad....curious to get thoughts...I feel this looks like a 10 team league roster but I'm probly way too in love with my players.

C McCann

1B Fielder

2B Roberts

3B Braun

SS Hardy

OF Sizemore

OF Adam Dunn

OF Damon

OF Patterson

U Thome

U Giambi

Bench Justin Upton

Snell

Parra

Cain

I don't think you overpaid...looks about even to me, and you get the player you want (and arguably the best player in the deal).

 
I think it's a great deal for you. It looks like you have a pretty stacked team overall. Damon and Roberts should definitely help you out a lot in steals, and you have more than enough power to make up for losing Wells. Most importantly though, you now have 3 young studs in Fielder, Braun, and Sizemore that you can keep as the cornerstone of your team, all of whom I believe will have 1st round value for years to come.

 
It really depnds on what Wells does this year. I think you got the better of it, as I'm not a believer in Wells. Even if has a good year, the deal is pretty even at that point in time, and you are set at keepers for a while. You can't really say that you'd keep any of the players you traded.

 
I like Roberts better than Kinsler... Kinsler always gets hurt.

Wells may be slightly better than Damon at this point but OF at that level are a dime a dozen so who cares.

Nice Deal!
