    Default Rebuilding trade trouble...

    OK folks, with all the down seaons and low batting averages, I'm not quite sure how to rate the following offer:

    I trade Anthony Rendon, Christian Yelich and Brandon Belt. In exchange, I receive Yasiel Puig, Maikel Franco, Joey Votto and Gerardo Parra/Albert Almorra

    At first glance I'm thinking no, since I'd rather keep my youth. However, there is a power void in my lineup, and Puig and Franco might both turn out to be 30 HR guys and they are...


    I'm in a 9-team 5x5 NL-Only Roto Dynasty League. I get to keep all IR players and claims if I so choose. Here is my team:
    Hitters
    C Barnhart (IR claimed for Schwarber), Ramos
    1B Fielder (AL players are being phased out, he is a leftover)
    2B LeMahieu
    3B Rendón
    SS Asd. Cabrera
    CI Belt
    MI Kang
    OF Braun, Duvall (IR claim for Pollock), Kemp, Suzuki (IR claim for D. Santana), Yelich
    UT Crawford (I know! everyone else on my bench is not playing either)
    Reserves T. Murphy, D. Gordon, R.McMahon, J.P. Crawford, A. Meadows, B. Paulsen

    Pitchers
    Starters Arrieta, Hammel, G. González, Leake, Nelson, Liriano, Conley, Davies (IR for T. Ross), Guerra (IR for Siegrist), Blair (reserve), Cashner, Lynn (reserve)
    Relievers Rondón, Hoover (reserve), Kimbrel (reserve)

    Keep 23 players at the start of each season.

    Agree it's tough to part with Rendon and Yelich when they're doing well, but that is a tempting offer.
    If you could get a slightly sweater piece than Parra added on, then I would do it. Even if you don't actually, I would probably still take Parra and do it. That's a great buy low for you.

    I would take this trade then try swapping out Votto right after.

    Votto has actually been doing well recently. After the deadline though he ms going to lose even more support out of his lineup though, so if you want returns this year, swap him, but his value is lower now.

    Offseason may be a better time to deal Votto.

    Oh yeah, I didn't mean trade Votto right away because he wasn't doing well... I meant because he is getting older and if you are rebuilding you might as well try swapping him out too.

    Completely fair, I'm just clarifying.
