Should I do this?

I get:

Carlos Lee
Adrian Gonzalez

He gets:

Kevin Youkilis
Josh Johnson

I am desperate for power numbers, BTW. Not so desperate for starting pitching.

    I wouldn't expect Adrian Gonzalez to replicate his first half stats in the second half.

    If Johnson is expendable then it looks like a good deal.

    If you need pitching though this would not work out very well for you.

    I don't love the deal. I wouldn't do it

    I feel like you're taking on too much money. Do you have a tight payroll? During this economy, I'll assume you do. Look at it this way:

    Carlos Lee 09:$18.5M, 10:$18.5M, 11:$18.5M, 12:$18.5M
    Adrian Gonzalez 09:$3M, 10:$4.75M, 11:$5.5M club option (no buyout)

    vs.

    Youkilis 09:$6M, 10:$9.125M, 11:$12M, 12:$12M, 13:$13M club option ($1M buyout)
    Josh Johnson 09: $1.4M


    I'm not sure you can afford it.

    Do(Don't) make the trade. It would be awful(awesome) for your team.

    What OF will Lee replace? Who will replace Johnson? What's the format/depth?

    Not knowing those details, I would rather have AGonz & Lee, but I have a deep aversion to SP. Johnson is very good, but in shallow leagues, he needs only get a tiny bit worse & he's waiver wire replaceable.

    That being said, my most recent trade was Ian Stewart for Kuroda (16 team fantasy scoring weekly lineups with 4sp/team, heavy emphasis on SP).
