Hi all! I hope everyone has been happy with their team so far. I've gone from incredibly mad to extremely happy. lol

I was proposed a trade yesterday (again with Posada) and I need some advice again. Thanks!
I need to point out here that my pitching staff so far isn't great. I have:

Affeldt (who i still have high expectations for)
Horatio Ramirez (just picked up thru FA)
Claudio Vargas (picked up thru FA)
Contreras
F. Garcia
Ponson
RP:
Hawkins
F. Rodriguez
Nen (DL)

The trade proposed to me was Wolf and Borowski for Posada. I have Javy Lopez as my other catcher. I'm still reluctant to let go of Posada, but I do need a good starter and closer.
The person also owns Acevedo, Moyer, Ortiz, M. Rivera, and B. Wagner. I was thinking of countertrading him and asking for Acevedo instead of Wolf. Any thoughts?

I don't like it. Borowski could lose his job any moment, and I don't think is compelling enough to trade Posada. You could just as easily get by on pitching, by picking up those pitchers who are hot, and riding their hot streaks.
