Trade Help!

Ive got Billy Wagner, Arthur Rhodes, Robb Nen and Braden Looper as my closers and I'm in desperate need of stolen bases on my team.. Should I give up Jason Giambi Moisus Alou and Braden Looper for Bobby Abreu, Jeff Bagwell and Juan Pierre? Do you think that I can last with just Rhodes Nen and Wagner and not need another relief pitcher? I know there hard to come by and I was wondering if anybody thinks it would be ok to lose Looper and leave me with just thsoe 3 closers instead? Thanks!!!

Dude, I don't know your league settings, but I'd suggest you didn't waste another second and make this trade happen ASAP. If the other team made the offer you should go to jail for robbery. SSHHH!

Yeah, I would do that trade in a second. You are getting such a good deal there. You should also be fine with just Wagner, Rhodes, and Nen. Rhodes wont lose his closers job and Nen has a good chance to recover from his injuries.

Run away with this deal NOW!

Giambi build this season looks similar to when he came out of High School.

Alou, well he is just an injury waiting to happen.

and Looper is playing for the Mets.

Enough said, you are getting rid of your garbage for some All Stars in return. Let us know if how it worked out.
