Exclamation Attention guru's MCP, etc.!!! NEED HELP ASAP!!
Need some advice......

I have Tulowiski and have been shopping him around in my 12 team H2H league.....I replaced Tulo with Alexi Ramierez when Tulo went down and as most of you know Alexi has been lights out.......Would you guys shop Tulo and roll with Alexi? Should I just hold on to Tulo and let Alexi go? I have been offered Grienke straight up for Tulo and another guy offered Felix for Tulo and Lindstrom.....If I do the two for one deal I am good but Greinke straight up forces me to make a roster move......I would have to drop a starting pitcher or one of my 4 closers (which I don't want to do......I like locking down the saves obviously). My starters are Carpenter, Oswalt, Garza, Hamels, Hanson, Cueto, Volquez, and Hunter. Closers are Nunez, Lindstrom, Lidge, and Gregg. What would you do??

Felix for Tulo and Lindstrom sounds like a good deal to me, either way you are getting a SP from a shitty team, might as well go with the King and alleviate a log jam in the process

agree with you on Felix over Greinke but like you said, both guys play for shitty ass teams......i offered the same guy Tulo and Lindstrom for Weaver instead of Felix and am waiting for a response....thanks for the input chris

Always take the extra SP and use the matchups is what I would do.

LMAO yes I did pick up Porcello what can I say deep down I'm a fan

But yes I always trade away extra offense for more pitching. This sounds like a roto league though, yes? If so I would definitely take Felix.

So we all agree that Alexi will put up the numbers close enough OR better than Tulo the rest of the way?

Not enough to pass on gaining an arm like Felix IMO. I dont care if Alexi tanks...you just pick up another SS from FA and keep chugging.

deals with the guy with Felix and Weaver went south.......

ended up dealing with the Greinke guy and acquired Greinke and Cahill for Tulo, Volquez, and Gregg......I am good with that......will roll with Alexi at SS and still have three closers with Lidge, Lindstrom, and Nunez.......starters are now Carpenter, Greinke, Cahill, Garza, Hanson, Hamels, Oswalt, Cueto, and Hunter

good deal for me?

I got a wierd feeling about Grienke and Cahill but I still wouldve done the deal to get more pitching. GL

Tulowiski has just been sitting on my bench most the year and I am happy with Alexi.....not gonna have 4 closers now but 3 will win me saves most weeks......

Bottom line is Greinke is an ace and Cahill has been suberb......I love my starting pitching now....pretty stacked for a good 12 team league
