    Nathan > Kershaw

    I'm sure there's Pelfrey type pitchers in the free agents

    I like the Nathan side

    Kershaw could blow up, but I think he's still a year away. Pelfrey should have a solid season, but for Nathan, it's worth it...I hope it goes through, I could use another closer (have Broxton and Devine)

    thanks AJ -

    of course you want the best player (Nathan), but is the other person in need of SP where they'd want Pelfrey? AJ's right... Pelfrey is likely FA material.

    If the person accepts this trade, he's either short on SP, loaded at CL or not very smart.

    kqc - he loaded up on all the closers - he's shopping Lidge and Nathan

    and then he still has K-Rod, Soria, and Marmol left on his roster...

    he's still not getting good value on Nathan -- great deal for you if he accepts

    well, i think i'm easily getting the better part of the deal, so it's great for me

    as i said Kershaw has a high ceiling, and I think Pelfrey is underrated - so it's possibly a good trade for him

    forgot to mention he did another trade with for Brad Hawpe and Carlos Pena for Lidge!!!

    I know he has a lot of closers, but thats a really bad deal, I probably could've gotten away with just Pelfrey or just Kershaw - he might be dumb and I gave away too much....

    I think your losing here...don't do it
    There will be 5 closers they get picked up by may 1 that end up with 30+ saves
    you might be able to trade Pelfrey and Kershaw later for a big hitter.
    Or they might have goods years

    well babs, already a done deal

    like i said in the previous post, he made a trade for Lidge for two avg hitters - i probably didn't have to give both those guys away...

    forgot to mention the most frustrating part of this, someone dropped Marmol in my league after one of his blowups and I picked him up, so I don't think I needed Nathan after all...I think Pelfrey's gonna have a big year -
