The last place team in the leage is looking to trade Chris Shelton, Michael Young and Andy Pettitte for Pujols, Carlos Guillen and Brian Bannister. I hate losing Pujols, but man, this looks like a good deal.

I don't think I would do it just because Pujols.

Will Shelton stay that hot all year? Might be worth the gamble, but I'm not sure I would pull that trigger.

Tough call. I would say do it. Shelton is off to a good start and while he could cool off like Brian Roberts last year, his success isn't all that surprising. And Young and Pettitte are both very good players that will be a benefit anywhere on your team.

As for Pujols, what happens if they start pitching around him, a la Bonds? The Cardinals offense took a big step backward this year and I for one wouldn't want any part of Pujols. Still, Pujols is the best hitter in the game right now.

there is no way I do this trade. Pujols can carry a fantasy team for a week.

No way I do that deal. I consider Pujols to be untouchable, and Shelton will likely cool way down from where he is now. Young and Pettitte are certainly great players to have, but no way would I do that deal.

Because Barry struggled when they pitched around him?

I wouldn't do it. Your trading a superstar and not getting one in return. Simple as that.

Don't do it. Pujols is the best batter in FBB. Like others, I feel strongly that Shelton will cool off. Young is good and so is Pettite, however, Pettite has not been as solid so far. There's no question you shouldn't accept this trade.

I wouldn't even consider it. You are giving away the best player in the deal. Not only is he the best player but nobody else involved in the trade is even on the same planet as him. This would be a huge mistake.
