Beltran & BJ Ryan - I give away

Tejada & Santana - I get

I have Michael Young at SS, so no loss there. However, right now, my relievers are Rivera and Ryan, so it's nice to be solid there. My starting pitchers are Buerhle, Armas, Blanton, Willis, and Sheets. Noah Lowry, Brett Tomko, and Scott Kazmir (DL) are on my bench.

Do I make that trade? Eddie Guardado or Jorge Julio are my options to replace Ryan.

We talking Ervin Santana or Johan here?

You do need help at SP, but it sounds like you will only have one legit RP left if you trade Ryan. I would say make the trade though, a SP has a greater impact than a reliever generally, especially Johan who gets you 15 K's a week minimum.

Yeah, Johan, sorry. Thanks for the input.

It's tough to say with so little information. Type of league, your points in categories, number of teams, your place, etc etc etc would be more helpful in determining. But, without any of that... I would say no. Beltran is SUPER-hot, and I think he will continue to be, and Ryan is a top 3 closer. Yes, Santana is great... but you have Michael Young and Beltran is going to put out far better numbers than Tejada. Not worth it in my opinion.

Oh right, I should have added that I'm 8 of 10 in the league, and the guy proposing the trade with me is 3rd.
