Keeper League Question

Fantasy question for the community:

Keeper league. I'd deal Nick Swisher and Chris Perez for Michael Taylor, Randy Wells, Marc Rzepczynski. It's a custom 7x7 scoring league that uses OBP and OPS rather than BA, so Swisher's value gets a big bump. Saves are severely devalued though as we use S+HD, so bullpen arms with a lot of holds can be picked up off waivers easily ... I would be dropping Perez to make room, so he is a throw in. Is this enough of a return for a high OBP bat like Swisher? Wells and Rzepcynski have both surprised, can they keep it up going forward? Thanks for your thoughts!

Id do it

I dont believe in Rzepcynski, but I like Wells and love Taylor.

I like Swisher… but he’s been up and down and is basically a 1 category guy - albeit in one of the best offense in the league and a hitter friendly park. Swisher is basically an average/above average guy… nothing special. Taylor could be something special.

re: do it!

not a big believer in Chris perez, Swisher’s ok…but I think Taylor might be the “real deal” no matter where he plays, and Randy Wells isn’t so bad himself.
