Okay so I am in a keeper league up to 13 players. 5x5 with 11 teams. This league has been around for 20 plus years and I inherited a crappy team. There are some strange rules, hence this very large trade. There are no bench spots in this league. 3 DL spots

I've been proposed to receive:

·Crawford, Carl LF BOS
·Pagan, Angel CF SF
·Lincecum, Tim SP SF
·Zimmerman, Ryan 3B WAS
·Reed, Addison RP CHW

and to give up:
·Howard, Ryan 1B PHI
·Kennedy, Ian SP ARI
·Motte, Jason RP STL
·Lee, Carlos LF HOU
·Ellsbury, Jacoby CF BOS

I'm planning on dropping Pagan as soon as Crawford comes back from the DL. I feel like it works in my favor since i get a real third baseman in Zimm, an outfielder that could actually do as well as ellsbury ( Crawford may be a long shot but possible Ells might not produce like last year and Crawford could bouce back) and a top pitcher Lincecum that probably hasnt sht the bed in 2 games...
I give up a pitcher with too much upside (kennedy) and hitter (ells) that probably wont do what he did last year and a closer which is the only thing that really seems to suck but i think i can deal for the short term.
Am i delusional?

my team is below:
C- Avila
C- Doumit
1B- Pena
2nd Atuve
2nd A Hill
SS- asdrubal
SS aybar
3rd- Stewart
OF- Ellsbury
OF- LoMo
OF- Rios
OF- Cespedes
OF-Rasmus
U- Carlos Lee

DL- R. Howard

Pitchers all active are
Beckett
Hudson
Ubaldo
Kennedy
Anibal S.
Lubke
Jansen
Motte

typo, meant Kennedy probably doesn't have too much upside, I feel like I can sell high on him

Sounds decent for you...

I think it helps you.
