I was wondering if you think I should make this trade. It is a 5x5 10 team H2H league. If it were a Rotisserie league I would be no worse than 3rd in every category except HR and RBI with a total of 79.5 points. I am doing poorly in HR and RBI every week. So here's my team:

C: Jason Varitek
1B: Derrek Lee
2B: Brian Roberts
3B: Ryan Braun
SS: Jose Reyes
OF: Grady Sizemore
OF: Bobby Abreu
OF: Hideki Matsui
1B/3B: Prince Fielder
Util: Hunter Pence
Util: Nick Markakis
Bench: Mark Teahen
DL: Mike Piazza

P: Jose Valverde
P: Brad Lidge
SP: Jake Peavy
SP: CC Sabathia
SP: Roger Clemens
RP: Brian Fuentes
RP: Chris Ray
Bench: Felix Hernandez, Rich Hill, James Shields, Kelvim Escobar, Matt Cain
DL: Rich Harden

Guys on WW: Delmon Young, JD Drew, Josh Hamilton, Chris Duncan, Craig Monroe, Conor Jackson, Tim Lincecum, Chris Capuano, Daniel Cabrera, Mike Mussina, Boof Bonser, Dave Bush, Bartolo Colon, Jorge Sosa, Chuck James.

I was thinking of doing the trade and then picking up Lincecum. Then when Harden came back and started a game or two I would put him in place of Lincecum. So What do you think?

i think you're offering too much.  why not try Escobar/Hill for him?  Felix alone may be enough to land Thome.

I was mainly going by the new Top 150 fantasy rankings by ESPN's analysts. They have Thome ranked 74 while Felix is surprisingly 139 and Escobar 144. But I'll try just Felix for Thome.

Hold on, don't trade Felix for Thome. Thome isn't even going to start for you with your roster, while Felix is one of the best pitchers. If you wan't help at HR and RBI, upgrade at 3b. Try trading Sizemore+Felix for A-Rod, or at least make a buy-low deal on Aramis Ramirez.

Why wouldn't Thome start on my team? Would you rather have Pence and Markakis over Thome?
