Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

Dynasty Trade Help

Long time reader, first time poster.

I have had my eyes on pitcher Jake Odorizzi of the Brewers and I can get him if I trade his owner both outfielder Kellen Kulbacki (Padres) and pitcher Jason Knapp (Phillies).

Now other than his draft position, I do not know a ton about Odorizzi or how he has done this year.  

Can anyone enlighten me more on his potential and his progress this year?

Should I make this deal?

I'd do it, but....

I like Odorizzi better than Knapp, but they may have similar value. With Kulbacki in the mix, that may mean that it is giving up too much for Odorizzi. Personally, I’d do the trade because I think Odorizzi has a higher upside than Knapp, plus I feel Kulbacki will be a 4th OF type.

I don’t believe Odorizzi has pitched this year yet. He should begin the season with the Helena Brewers, a rookie ball team, and there season begins on June 23rd.

Kulbacki

He might be on the Padres pro roster as either a starter or platooner. Giles will be gone, and either Kulbacki or Venerable will take hold. I am leaning towards Kulbacki
