TRADES: Did they help or hurt?

TRADES: Did they help or hurt?

Postby amitdoc2b » Thu Jul 13, 2006 11:54 am

I went into a bit of a trade frenzy yesterday and made 2 diff trades:

Trade #1
I received Melvin Mora and gave away Hank Blalock
[originally I was platooning Feliz and Blalock]

Trade #2
I received Konerko, Timlin, M. Gonzalez and gave away Kent, Duchscherer, L. Carter
[I had two second basement in Kent/Utley although Kent can play 1st base & was tearing it up..but I feel like i added some power in Konerko and strengthened my bullpen]

Overall
Received: Mora, Konerko, Timlin, M. Gonzalez
Gave up: Blalock, Kent, Ducscherer, L. Carter

I play at Dodger Stadium. Let me know what you think of these trades.

Here's my team: http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratomatic/2006/team/team_other.html?user_id=6859

Edit: I also made $700,000 to give me some flexibility.

My uninformed opinion?

Not a terrible trade: I see Mora as a slight upgrade. Konerko is a bit better defensively. Your bullpen is the thing I worry about. You only have four relievers and fatigue may well factor in. I'm not sold on your closers, either.

Your OBP is very low. Dodger Stadium kills singles and is only average on HRs. You need more people on base when you do hit those dingers. Looks like you're getting murdered on the road (pitching and hitting are worse), you may want to take a look at why that is.
