Well you guys talked me off the ledge - McCutchen is staying put. But in a last ditch offer leading up to our trade deadline, a guy has offered me Holliday and Bruce for Stanton. I don't have a very good chance of catching the leaders, but I do have an outside shot. My hitting keepers today would likely be Pedroia, Stanton, McCutchen, Longoria. So the trade would mean keeping one of McCann, Holliday or Bruce instead of Stanton. Worth the gamble?

Hitting cats are Avg, SLG%, RBIs, R, HRs, SB. We keep 4 hitters and 2 pitchers. We don't use waivers. We start 2 at each IF spot, 5 OFs, 1 rookie hitter, and 3 DH (any hitters). Stanton would be replaced by Holliday, and Bruce would probably go in for BJ Upton or Bonifacio, depending on cat needs. My speed is good, but most other offensive cats could use a boost - just trying to decide if the keeper downgrade is worth it.

I like that deal, you're giving up Stanton and getting two quality keepers.
