It's raw, you donkey!
So here's another scenario. I'm in a 12-team H2H points league. I'm tired of Josh Hamilton, although I can see him start to kick things up. I put him on the block and a team just said to offer him something, he likes to deal. So I offered up Hamilton, Gio Gonzalez, and Fujikawa for Jay Bruce and Cole Hamels. I already have Jansen, Parnell, and Jim Johnson as my closers. I think Bruce picks it up more than Hamilton and I wanna be there when he does. Good idea on the offer?
I like this trade for you. Hamilton is a train wreck in the making, and Bruce, while streaky, should put up good numbers. I really like Gio but Hamels is a stud. Fujikawa will probably still end up being the Cubs closer, but with Marmol (gasp!) and Gregg, who knows? Plus, you can afford to let him go.
Note on Josh Hamilton: This guy's ego is so big, he makes Reggie Jackson look like Mother Teresa. No small feat.
