How much is too much for Hanley?

[Gator627]

This is a keeper league. I want Hanley. I have Rollins but that isnt enough to go straight up.

I offered Rollins Carlos Pena and Jesse Litsch for Hanley and Chris Davis.

I dont think he will do it. I probably wouldnt do it but you never know.

I also have Manny, Cliff Lee, Harden and Holliday.

What should I send to get Hanley? I'm a big Marlins fan already plus he is a 40/40 player.

Harden's value is so low with so much potential that you almost have to hold onto him and hope he is healthy. Cliff Lee and Rollins might get the job done. I don't think Cliff is anything other than an above average fantasy pitcher but guys like him alot right now. Rollins is a stud too though and arguably almost as valuable as Hanley considering the home parks. Don't reach too far for Ramirez. What usually happens is that speed players start to hit for more power eventually and sacrifice steals. It would not surprise me to see Hanley follow this trend in a year or two.

I feel exactly the same as you about Harden. I took over this team and I felt blessed/cursed to have Harden. On one hand, he is probably one of the top 3 best pitchers in Fantasy Baseball....but, he can also spend half the season on the DL.

Ill try Lee and Rollins for Hanley. I really should wait and hope Rollins goes on a tear.

Trade Cliff Lee while he his hot. A fall off after the break is nearly a lock.

Cliff Lee and Rollins for Hanley and X is a good trade as long as the 2nd guy in the Hanley trade is a middle tier starter.

Yes, even though I'm a Cliff Lee fan, at the end of the day he'll be a #2, strong #3 rotation starter, that averages about 14 wins a season.
Lee, with Rollins and a throw in is fair, like Whispez suggested.
