should I trade Preston Wilson and Brett Myers for Pedro Martinez and Edgar Martinez?

I'd say no and here's why...Wilson is having a great year and Myers has been very impressive. Pedro being Pedro he is never totally healthy and while Edgar is enjoying a great year the trade isn't enough for me.

I would never do this trade, but it was just offered to me, a guy in my league posted a message saying he would trade pedro or schmidt for some hitting, I offered him Klesko, Sabathia and Ryan Franklin for Pedro and that was his counter, I'm thinking of countering with Wilson, Myers, Sabathia and Franklin for both Schmidt and Pedro, what do you think about that? maybe I should ask for Edgar too, but I don't like having a guy who is only a DH
the main reason I'm trying to trade more pitchers than I get back is because I'm over my innings limit and trying to get the best starts possible from here on out, I'm like 5th in this very competitive winners league and I can gain a lot of ground in the wins category if I make my remaining starts count

As good as Martinez and Schmidt are I would try to get someone else too. I agree with you about Edgar, being a DH can really pigeon hole you. I really like guys who play multiple positions.

If you can withstand losing Klesko and you have other quality hitters I'd say go for it. If wins can bring you up from 5th do it.
