I'm thinking about offering Castro + a SP (besides Lester) for Cliff Lee. Castro would be a 6th round keeper next year...I have Alexi Ramirez and Cozart is avail on WW...Pull the trigger?

I think Castro would be more valuable to you than another pitcher, and who knows how long cozart will keep this pace, rooks tend to hit rough patches

i kinda like it. having Lee and Lester would be nasty... and Alexei isnt that bad of a Ss option with Corzat as a backup plan

That's kinda my thinking - I think w/ Sandoval/Kendrick I can take the average hit. But Castro is on pace to steal 100+ bases, haha. I'm really torn on this one...

With it being a keeper league I personally probably wouldn't do this trade... Lee is a great pitcher and everything, but your pitching is already solid, and Castro being so young and already so good at a shaky position, his value as a 6th round keeper may be great by the end of the year.
Like Grey said recently in a blog post, Castro could easily be a top 3 SS at the end of the year. It's amazing how similar his skill set is to that of Derek Jeter...if you compare each of their first two seasons, with the only differences being that Castro strikes out less and Castro being two full years younger.
