I'm in a deep 10-team league (40 player rosters), and we have to start a rookie. I've got Sano and Correa in the minors, so I was forced to draft Kang and Michael Taylor to start the year with a rostered rookie (not ideal). There's another guy in my league with no rookie so he's kinda desperate. Is it a no-brainer to trade one of Kang or Taylor for Tillman, Cashner or maybe Hutchison? I think my pitching is fine, but he's looking to deal pitching for a rookie, and we only get 5 waiver pickups each all year.

You rang?
Yup, to me it is a no-brainer to trade Kang for any and all of the above.
Taylor could actually be decent but I expect little to nothing from Kang this year.

I absolutely agree. Kang would probably get sent down to the minors if he didn't have the clause in his contract that he has to consent to any demotions. I'd take a shot on trading him for the pitching.

I would trade Kang for Hutchison in a second.
I'd trade Taylor. Once Span comes back, he's got no spot. Kang will get every chance to stick. By mid-season he will be the starter. Mercer is there for his glove. Riskier choice, but with him being a SS, higher reward.
