12 Team league with 5x5 scoring....As you can imagine, I am dominating the hitting categories and suffering in all pitching categories but saves. I need to get an ace that can help me in all pitching categories, and I have a natural trade partner that is suffering offensively. Normally I do not like trading offense for pitching, but I have been getting burned by some of these mediocre starters. Thoughts on this deal that I am thinking about proposing:

I get Brandon Webb and JD Drew
I give Magglio and Micah Owings

Is this fair for both sides?
 
Only thing i'm concerned about is webb's win % won't be like this the entire year....i mean, the guy's not going to win 30 games, so i'm wondering if i should target someone else

Thanks guys....got another possibility in my other league (I am in 2, both same format)....I need speed, runs and pitching and he needs power and saves. Thinking about proposing this:

I give Mccann, CJ Wilson and Weeks
I get Mauer, Upton and maybe a 3rd player (mid level pitcher)

My 2b spot is filled by Brandon Phillips, so Weeks just rots on my bench. Upton has OF eligibility, so he gives me a lot of flexibility there. I am in the lead in HR's & RBI's so I can afford to lose Mccann's HR's for Mauer's BA and runs (think they could be comparable in RBI's at year end). I could ask for a 3rd player, but it would seem to tilt the trade in my favor then as Upton is the best player in the deal. Thoughts?
 
i wish people would send me trades that were fair. i get offers for Arod about twice a week, and no one is willing to give up a 4th rounder or better. everyone just wants to dump depth for studs. i'm about to start being an asshole in reply.

here's the latest... Arod + Shields for Cliff Lee+Ankiel+Atkins
 
dunno. wait on the experts to chime in but i don't think i'd give up Mcann. HRs are RBIs too. and i'd be real surprised if Mcann doesnt hit 290+

your avg looks pretty good to me already
