So they just played a game on ESPN called "Keep 'Em Or Trade 'Em." Dan Patrick names a fantasy baseball player, and HR says whether he'd keep or trade that player.
Here's who he'd keep:
Derek Lee
John Garland
Brian Roberts
And the three he'd trade:
Randy Johnson
Jim Thome
Barry Bonds
>> Aside from the fact that this game is wicked retarded (because we don't know who these players are hypothetically being traded for), this is the exact opposite of who you should keep and trade.
One should trade players who are over-performing. And hold on to underachievers with a high likelihood of getting better. You can't get good value for Unit, Hats Off and The Umenema because they haven't done anything and they're huge injury risks. On the other side, you might be able to get a monster for Roberts or Lee becaue they're playing way over their heads right now.
Harold Reynolds...GRRR! I hate you.
