MLB Trade Offer For Me..

[TMAC951]

I am a member of a fantasy MLB league on cbs and I got a offer from someone and I was wanting everyones opinions.. I dont think its a good one but what do you guys think???

He is offering Lyle Overbay and C.C. Sabathia for Dontrelle Willis.


Im thinking rejecting it but wanted to know what you fellas thought about it

[SustainDan]

Overbay should be solid with his new team and sabathia should be pretty decent but....Dtrain is the ace for the marlins who IMO will do better than expected with young players and young pitchers

[TMAC951]

Those are my thoughts.. im thinking about rejecting it lol

[meaiken]

I would reject it also, u might not get wins by dtrain, but u will get good K's, WHIP and ERA

Who would Overbay be replacing in your lineup?

Who would Overbay be replacing in your lineup?

We did an automated draft and my 1st baseman at the moment is Carlos Delgado.. Only one he wants from me is Willis.. so if i took it CC would replace him and i would have 2 1st basemans.. Im really thinking rejecting it lol

I would take it in a heartbeat if you in any way need Overbay and his bat to start or as a good backup. I think Overbay will have a nice year and i don't think Dontrelle will. I really don't. He didn't have a good classic and he will get very limited run support. I think he takes a step backwards and C.C. has a better year S-U because of stealing some runs with the Indians lineup. If you can use Overbay, i would do it!

Would u use Overbay as a backup to Delgado or would you insert overbay into the starting lineup?

If you can't use him I am not sure how much the trade will help you out.


If you need him for your lineup I have to agree with everything Wayne had to say.

[wayne1218]

You can't use him any other place in your lineup like DH or Utility player? If you can set your lineup daily and not weekly, i would take Overbay for sure and put him in on Delgado's off days!

My utility players are Jermaine Dye and Chris Shelton of the Detroit Tigers.. I could use him like you said.. Damn it wayne i was about to say no and your slowly talking me into taking him lol..

If those are your utility guys than this is a slam dunk trade for you! Hit accept before he changes his mind. I really think Overbay will put up good numbers and you could use him in either spot. An Injury too Dye or Delgado is VERY possible too. Just look at the last couple years. I also think the pitchers equal out. I really do.

Aight dude you talked me into it.. I really hate giving up the D-Train but CC has been solid.. I hope im thanking you when its all said and done and not cussing your ass out for talking me into taking this

All you are doing in that trade is upgrading your utility spot and plugging in a solid backup 1B if Delgado goes down. I really think Dontrelle is in for a rough year which means (IMO) i feel like you upgraded a pitcher as well.
