What would you ask for BJ Upton?

This guy is asking for BJ Upton.
He mainly wants to trade a pitcher which I could use since i have the highest ERA and WHIP in the league.

He has:
Garza
Josh Johnson
Soria
Francisco
Hanrahan
Axford
Chapman
Venters
Jurrjens
Jaime Garcia
Verlander
Buckholz
Joahn Santana (DL)

The only I would consider is Josh Johnson, or Verlander.

Would that be a fair trade?

I wonder if i can extract more value. He has Pujols, and I was thinking of packaging Josh Johnsons and Pujols for BJ Upton and 1 of the multiple 1B I have: Berkman, Morneau, Lind, or Victor Martinez.

what do you think?

Is this a roto league? If not that even saps what minimal value BJ Upton has these days anyways. I'll assume its a 5x5 since he is carrying high KO set up men.

I would ask back for Garza or a combo of Venters & Francisco/Hanrahan/Axford.

Depth of the league matters also....how many teams and what not.

This is a realistic opinion.

That talk about Upton for Johnson or Upton and Whomever for Pujols and Johnson is just crazy talk.

Who the fuk is BJ Upton? How does he even enter a discussion for top flight fantasy talent.

Agreed...I've never been high on Upton and I don't think alot of people out there consider him even a top 10 OF in fantasy

Upton was viable in 06 when he was carrying 2b eligibility. People bought into the hype on 07 and were massively disappointed but after his playoff momentum in 07 they reinvested again in 08 and were disappointed again. 3 years later I dont think people expect much out of this guy anymore besides a decent amount of steals.
