Fantasy Baseball: Who to Trade For

by Phil Melanson

Blake surprising all


We're now two months into the season. At this point in the campaign, you should have a good sense of what your lineup is capable of. Can they win a championship? Are they bottom-feeders? Are they one piece away? These are questions that you need to be asking yourself about your teams...hopefully, you're not asking yourself the second question.

Even if your team is at a championship level, you should look to make improvements all the time. Here are some moves that you might consider at this point in the year: Check out Bovada and start winning NOW!

Trade For:

Mark Teixiera - Texas Rangers, 1B

Many of his owners will have lost patience with him by now as their number two or three guy in the draft is not producing. It's certainly difficult to stick with a guy that has 1 HR and 1 RBI in his last 10 games, but there's a reason why he drove in 144 RBIs last year. Try to take advantage of the situation and get this guy in your lineup.

Carlos Delgado - New York Mets, 1B

Here's another first baseman that's struggling lately. In his last ten games, he's only amassed 2 HR and 5 RBIs and has seen his average drop from .282 to .263. But just like Teixeira, Delgado is due for a return to form. It should be even easier to grab Delgado.

Trade Away:

Felipe Lopez - Cincinnati Reds, SS/2B

Is it possible that he used up all of his stolen bases already in the first two months of the season? In 148 games last year, he had only 15 stolen bases. Lopez eclipsed that by the middle of May this year and now has been stuck at 16 for two weeks now. The end of the run could be over for Lopez and it might be time to move on to someone else for SBs.

Casey Blake - Cleveland Indians, RF/3B

Blake got off to an incredible start with Cleveland this year, but we've seen a dip in numbers in all facets. His average has dropped from .366 to .335 and he's only amassed 2 HR and 7 RBIs in his last ten games...it looks even worse when you consider one of those games included a 2 HR, 4 RBI game effort. Trade him now while he still has value.
