OK... just drafted a new Forbes team. My division contains two Fenway '67s, and a Memorial '70.

I have Rickey, Tris, Morgan and Jackie to lead the OBP parade.
I drafted both Clemente (my first choice) and Felipe (in case I did not get Roberto).
I want to anchor the staff with Clemens and this trade is on the table:
I give up Clemente, McEnaney, Gehringer (who I don't need at all) and Mike Scott FOR Clemens, Reggie Jackson, Doerr (who I would then dump for pitching) and Drabowsky.
I would rather keep McEnaney, but I am intrigued by Reggie with the power parks in my division.

OK... so the question is - do I keep Clemente for his OBP or do I make the trade? And if I make the trade, do I keep Alou or Reggie in RF?

myself, I would not give up Clemente - and I would keep Scott

Alos, you would then have Reggie and Morgan which would make you weaker vs LHs.

I'd definitely keep Gehringer over Morgan. Maybe you could trade Morgan for Clemens.

Thanks for the input.
I was really waffling on it. I was preferable to keeping Clemente and McEnaney anyway, just needed a little push to stay that way.

I'm a huge Morgan, but I'd have to agree with rsslavens.

If you already have Gehringer...a Morgan for Clemens trade would be perfect for this team.
