My fellow fantasy geeks, I need your opinion.
I have been offered Paul Konerko and CC Sabathia
for
Mark Teixeira
Opinions? Sabathia just got put on the 15 day DL. Are there any Cleveland Hoyas out there? I am not a patient fantsay GM so I am worried about the length that he might be out.

I don't consider myself an actual guru, but I play one on TV.
Trading more talent for more players rarely works. Especially in this situation where you are swapping 1Bs to get a pitcher. Teixeira mashes more than Konerko, and unless you have a truly truly awful pitching staff, Sabathia won't help you that much, even before the injury.
When in doubt, look at the draft results and determine how much the other guy values your and his players, I imagine that while Teixeira was a 1st or second round pick, Konerko was no earlier than 6th and Sabathia no earlier than 10th.
You can find pitchers as good as Sabathia on the waiver wire.
Edit: Who do I think I am? I can't believe I wrote this much fantasy baseball advice. I really am not good at it.

Although I'm pretty sure I'm right in this case.
Also, I love the idea of a fantasy advice thread. Too bad some of the less talented members of my league also post.
Those losers will steal my ideas.
