[quote:dc74fb1391]You traded Haren to Danger for either Billingsley or Kershaw, with it ultimately being Billingsley.
Danger used Haren for a season (both the $200 million and the $60 million) then sent him back to you?
So you traded a season's worth of Haren for Chad Billingsley, with both now on your roster and Danger not having either one going forward?
Was that the deal? [/quote:dc74fb1391]
The Danger used Haren for the $200 million season, then sent him back to me. Then he chose to send the lesser of the two Dodgers, Billingsley, to me after the $60 million season to complete the trade.
It probably looks like a pretty lopsided trade now, but at the time it made sense, as there were big questions about both Dodger pitchers at the start of2010. I think the Danger is going to be ok though, has anyone looked at his SP? What a meat grinder that's going to be!
[quote:dc74fb1391]One good thing about this league is that even if you have a horrid $200M team, you may win the $60M. [/quote:dc74fb1391]
This has apparently been my strategy for the last couple of seasons... :(
