My: Frank Frank, Grant Balfour, and Danny Espinosa
FOR
His: Michael Cuddyer, Marco Scutaro, and Ryan Raburn

We've gone back and forth and this is the offer I'm most-inclined to accept - mainly because I'm getting the best player involved. He has zero closers at the moment.

Should I accept and go save-chasing on waivers? My hesitation is that those two closers are my only source of reliable saves currently. There are only possible closers-in-waiting on the waiver wire.

You would get 3 bench players. That trade has value, but it hurts your team

I wouldn't do that. Why chase saves if you don't have to? SAGNOF means that it's ok to not pay for closers, not that it's ok to give them away.

Try Frank Frank for Cuddyer alone, or Frank squared + Espinosa for Cuddyer.
