How much is B. Wood worth?
I don't usually like to ask for fantasy advice on this site, but this one has got me stumped.
I'm pondering a deal for B. Wood.
I'd give up Miguel Tejeda and Ben Hendrickson (Mil) for B. Wood, K. Wood and D. Veal.
This is a deep (28 teams) keeper league. I won't get into the money aspects of the deal but on talent alone I can't seem to pull the trigger on this one.
Is B. Wood really worth this much?

AROD=195 lbs? NO WAY
I strongly recommend no one make assertations about a player's mass based on TBC's listed weight. It's not current factual data like the batting stats.

Hopefully, it works. It will show you a big shortstop.

talk to me when he has 2 seasons at 500+ SP
And I don't count 19 AB at Salt Lake.
His Cal numbers are just too far out of line with his 2003/2004 numbers to take them without a huge grain of salt. Especially for someone with mediocre plate control. Other than the Cal League, he has a career 754 OPS, with league seasons ranging from 726 to 842 (in 19 AB). Hardly awe inspiring, even for a middle infielder.

Unsold on Wood
I have heard mixed reviews of his defense, including rumors of his move to 3rd.
As I mentioned in another thread, Pecota has him having less than half the VORP next year of either Kendrick or Pedroia (if they were all to play in the majors). I usually take Pecota with a large grain of salt for anyone who has yet to play significant time above A ball. In this case, though, last year just looks too out of place with the rest of his record to take it that seriously.

I think you are smart enough when a rookie has a huge season to sell high. Well your fellow owner is trying this with you.
Most guys that trade stars for rookies are guys waiting for that perfect team. While sitting at the bottom of the standings.

Arizona HS player of the year?
Drew Henson was National Player of the Year.
Obviously, Wood has had the better MiLB career, but you'd be nuts to give up a perennial MVP candidate who's a lock for the HOF for potential. Tejada's only 29, he's not 39.
Are you sure this kid with no MLB at-bats is going to be better than Tejada? Really?

his upside
keep miggy. he's even better in roto than in real baseball, where he's already an elite player, because his RBIs help you and his mediocre OBP doesn't matter.

In those settings, I usually have enough time to ask a guy a question. What would you suggest I ask Wood?

Ask him
Especially the next time Baker wants to go out and pitch the 7th inning of a 6 run ballgame after already throwing 100 pitches.

Wow. Great feedback
Tejeda is my only real talent on this team too.
I just hate to have a premium talent sitting there when I know my team isn't going anywhere.

No chance
Unless you're trying to rebuild, this isn't a move that's going to help you. And if you ARE rebuilding, you should ask for more top-tier prospects and leave Kerry Wood out of the deal.

I think you're right
I originally asked for A. Sisco and Pawlek but he's since backed off those. He won't give up Hill and after that he doesn't have any top tier talent.

No concerns about Miggy's 2nd half?
If you are rebuilding and don't expect to compete I'd try to find something other then K Wood. It is a big gamble but if Miggy is your top talent then you need to take chances.

Jim
You have the guaranteed star. Actually there is only one stud SS now since Garciaparra has dropped and ARod is at 3rd.
I think you need to get at least two stud prospects of a group like:
Delmon Young / BJ Upton / Felix / Verlander / Billingsley / Wood / etc.
Although it might be tough to get Felix and a top prospect with him.
