CC for Morneau « Thread Started on Nov 22, 2007, 4:23pm »
What do you think about this trade CC+OCabrera for JMorneau?
20 team 12 player keeper league. Here are the players for consideration to keep (not in order):
2B KJohnson 3B EEncarnacion SS OCabrera OF CYoung, Vlad G, JDamon, GSheffield
SP CC, BMyers, IanSnell, PHughes, TLilly, RHill RP MarianoRivera
My concern is losing a for sure ace and a very solid SS. I'm also a little nervous about the lineup that Morneau will be hitting in esp. losing THunter.

I'd recommend doing a deal like this for a better player than Morneau, maybe a Howard, Wright, Utley, Fielder, Cabrera, ortiz, etc. Morneau is a bit risky because we don't know what kind of player he really is. We know he can hit 30+HR but he has shown almost no consistency over the last few seasons.
In a 20 team league, if you are going to trade two players of this caliber, you need to ask for a more serious player, and/or ask for a second useable player in return...preferably someone who is an upgrade over Kelly Johnson, who looks like your weakest keeper other than Ted Lilly.
