This trade does work for you in that you get a solid Ubaldo Jimenez into your lineup. Michael Morse is a solid player who gives you some positional flexibility, however I think the current .306 average is a product of an inflated line drive rate. You look at his walk and strikeout rates and it tells me the .306 average is somewhat of a fluke.
While I think two closers is enough to compete in saves considering every other team just has three, you lose two guys in which you don't have to worry about with their walk rates being so volatile this year.
I'm not a big fan of loading up on starters, unless you're starters are bonafide, and when I say bonafide, I mean have been producing on a year in year out basis. So the young pitchers that I normally like would not qualify (Hellickson, Vogelsong, Carrasco, Scherzer). What I would do is start offering teams a package of Scherzer and Carrasco for a possible veteran starter. If you want to ensure yourself on winning the crown, this is the blueprint I would follow. Start offering those 2-1 trades, and then load up on high k, low whip middle relievers like Clippard, Romo, Pestano, Chapman, Mike Adams. You get two or three of these guys, and every week they'll give you the equivalent of a starter's numbers.
Just as an example, in my 18 team dynasty league I'm in, I am currently in 1st, and traded my Anthony Rizzo, Brett Anderson, Seth Smith and Jacob Turner to a rebuilding team for his Carlos Beltran, Aroldis Chapman, and Tyler Clippard. Our leagues count holds, and while I have quite a few starters, I only plug four of my six starters in. My starters - Cole Hamels, Justin Verlander, Dan Haren, Wandy Rodriguez. I also have Homer Bailty & Francisco Liriano on the bench. My closers are Chris Perez who isn't striking many batters out and Mariano. Also loaded on high K relievers that get holds in Matt Reynolds, Louis Coleman and Lance Lynn. Those three last week gave me 9 1/3 innings pitched, zero runs surrendered, 9.7 K/9, 1.9 BB/9, 5 K/BB, and two holds. See where I'm getting at?
Lastly, welcome to the board!!
