Chi Town Sox Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 I am in first place in this league and my team is as follows C - Russell Martin 1B- Jason Giambi 2B - Chase Utley 3b - Troy Glaus SS - hanley ramirez OF - carl crawford OF - delmon young OF - nick markakis util - jim thome SP - halladay lackey hamels cain schilling escobar lowry lincecum oliver perez nathan fuentes chad cordero eric gagne now with all of the giambi stuff going on, id rather get rid of him or pick up a better outfielder, i have been offered nick swisher (1B/OF) for lincecum and gagne. i know i can spare the closer (injury prone and bad team anyways) , but not to sure on lincecum - many say he is an injury waiting to happen. let me know what you all would do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackie hayes Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I think you're worrying too much about Giambi. Swisher isn't a big upgrade, if any. Definitely not worth someone with Lincecum's ceiling. I'd accept the injury risk and stand pat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChWRoCk2 Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Well Giambis on the DL so that solves one problem, put him on the DL, better yet just drop him, his average is probably killing you and his foot looks to be serious. You need a home run bat in your lineup. With Giambi gone now you should think about dealing one of your starters. Swisher is alright, he started off hot last year too and fizzled. Someone you should think about is Konerko, you can get him for cheap since he isnt doing too hot, but he is heating up lately and getting hits. Of course only bad thing is that you have Thome and I know I for one dont like having more than one player on same team generally. Depending on how badly the other guy needs a closer, Gagne for Swish might just be fair straight up, hell you could throw in Cordero and look to pick up a closer in Brad Hennessy of the Giants. Not many people have him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
