what is the trade value of Jonathan Broxton right now? I would like to move him with Chris Perez in the wings, and Santiago Casilla coming off DL soon. We count holds, so Broxton has some extra value in addition to his normal stats.

@BSA: The trade would be Beckett/Kinsler/Papelbon for Lincecum/Utley/Penny? I think Beckett and Lincecum are comparable and Penny is useless. So Kinsler and Papelbon for Utley? I don't hate it. Utley is that good. But there's no burning reason to make this trade. If you could avoid giving up Pap or swapping in Kershaw instead of Beckett, I'd be more excited. @cruisinkc: If you have 2B and MI depth, I guess. But Hafner out of that lineup makes me like Sizemore a bit less.

The Beckett/Kinsler for Lincee/Utley trade is in barter mode. I offered Kershaw and he came back adding Penny and wanting Papelbon.
My closers are Papelbon, Rauch, Ryan
His starters are Cook CYoung, Penny, volquez, Burnett, Jurrj, gsmith
Our free agent closers are:Wilson (both of them), Capps, Acosta, Torres

What next? I think Penny is junk and Pap is too much.

"there is also Danks,Garza,Scott Olsen,Pettite,Francis,Bergmann,Ed. Jackso,Zito and Duscherer. Any of them beat out Pedro?" @Dr.J: Uh, so what made you include Zito? Were you seriously giving an iota of consideration to picking him up? The only place Zito has any value is in a razztastic league.

@Grey: Cruise - I'm disagreeing with Grey and Porkburn. I like Lackey. Soto is giving you above average HR/RBI but I don't think he's a safe bet for AVG, R, or SB. Lackey will give you 4 stats out of 5. V-Mart could probably give you everything except the HR. See if he'll thrown in V-Mart. If not, offer him back your most expendable player.

@cruisinkc: Lincecum, Hamels, Zambrano, Shields, Billingsley and Kazmir. They're all really close. Billingley and Shields will give you the most value considering what people think of them.

@Grey: Could you rank these pitchers for how they will perform for the rest of the season: Billingsley, Kazmir, Hamels, Lincecum, Shields, and Zambrano. All i'm looking as possible trade targets.
