Any reason why I should do this trade?

I wouldn't do that deal.

You are giving up 3 excellent players for 2 decent prospects (Evans & Scott) one solid reliever (Alexander) and 2, charitably, #5 starters.

I can't see any benefit to you, am I missing something ?

I don't see any benefit to my team either but thought I ask since this trade offer came from a very knowledgable owner. Thanks.

Well it's really not terrible with the nice prospects but not good enough to accept....

Yes, the hitting prospects aren't bad. But I already have some pretty good ones and there is a glut of good hitting prospects in the league. Good pitchers and good young pitchers are pretty scarce. Lee and Shiver are some of the best young pitchers in the league.

Yeah it always just depends on the league, who was the knowladgeable owner by the way...?

For the record, the league is a little light on pitching, so they ARE #5 level starters. In fact, they were serving a starter or long reliever role on my team last year, and it still won 111 games.

Just trying to get a second opinion, rnzy. I really just wanted to verify that I wasn't crazy (almost) always rejecting your offers. :saint:

The best offers usually get done with negotiations from both sides. No offense taken. :)
