10 Team Roto League
Currently 9th overall, only strong category is Saves

Hitting Categories: OBP, Runs, RBI, Slugging
Pitching Categories: Wins, Saves, ERA, Whip

Offer on the table:
I Give: Allen Craig, James McDonald, Jonathon Papelbon, Josh Willingham
I Get: Buster Posey, Dustin Pedroia, Tulo, King Felix

My Roster:
C - Carlos Santana, JP Arencibia
1B - Chris Davis
2B - Ben Zobrist
SS - Ian Desmond
3B - Miguel Cabrera
MI - Sean Rodriguez
CI - Allen Craig
OF - Gregor Blanco, Mitch Moreland, Gerardo Parra, Martin Prado, Josh Willingham
U - Jeff Francoeur

Bench - Emilio Bonafacio, Eric Hosmer, Yonder Alonso

Pitching Staff - Santiago Castilla, Cole Hamels, Dan Haren, Josh Johnson, James McDonald, Jonathon Papelbon, Jose Valerde, Ryan Vogelsong, Vance Worley

Bench - Tim Lincecum, John Axford, AJ Burnett

I know it seems like a no brainer, but this is where I pause.
My OF is thin as it is, and there isn't much on the waiver wire to improve it (Rajai Davis, Howard Kendrick, Ben Revere, Juan Pierre, Colby Rasmus among the better choices available that are OF eligible)
Also, with Tulo's recent setback, he's likely out until at least the All Star Break

His Roster: (Currently 2nd in the standings)

C - Buster Posey, Mike Napoli
1B - Corey Hart
2B - Dustin Pedroia
SS - Trevor Plouffe
3B - David Wright
MI - Gordon Beckham
CI - Aramis Ramirez
OF - Alejandro De Aza, Ryan Doumit, Giancarlo Stanton, Mike Trout, Dayan Viciedo
U - Neil Walker

Bench - Brian Roberts, Dee Gordon, Tulo, Nelson Cruz, Will Middlebrooks

Pitching Staff - Alfredo Aceves, Brandon Beachy, Aroldis Chapman, Tyler Clippard, King Felix, Lance Lynn, Addison Reed, Jason Motte, Chris Sale

Bench - Carlos Zambrano

Do you make this move, and if not what would you counter with?

If you pause, you are dumb. This trade is veto-worthy. You can find average OFers on the FA wire.
