    Getting Lance Berkman for Clayton Kershaw
    I got proposed a trade in my Fantasy league and Im thinking of taking it because im currently first in Wins but Im already close to my IP limit so I gotta cut back on my pitching somehow. Its my first time dong fantasy baseball so I didn't even know there was a limit on IP and now im in trouble cause i got over a 100 more IP than anybody else My power numbers are low and I need XBH, HR, and average. Clayton is 6-3 with a 2.62 era and 87 K's this year while Lance is batting .333 with 12 HRs and 39 RBI and 21 extra base knocks.


    Is this a good trade for me or what?

    no it isn't a good trade for you. Lance is only going to go down after a hot start. Get someone at least who has been struggling like a Choo or someone with big upside. Berkman has been doing it with smoke and mirrors

    In my honest opinion I wld hold on to Clayton, maybe trade another one of your pitchers

      No, this is exactly what you shouldn't do in fantasy. You'll be paying for Berkman's hot start. The key to fantasy trades is buying when a players stock is very low.

          What they said ^

          Lance will probably end up on the DL or hit a wall later in the year. Sorta like Vladi did last year. Go after someone younger.

              I dont know I think the kind of production that Lance currently produces will plummet. Stick with Kershaw, he is as close to a sure thing as there is

                  Have only played fantasy BB a couple of times, but the leagues I was in, the IP was a minimum not a maximum.
