Adrián Béltre
Jhonny Peralta

for

Gordon Beckham

I have Beckham now. Due to a computer glitch I am low on hitters on the bench. I feel Beckham might put up great numbers this year, but like the numbers Peralta/Beltre will put up as well.

Any thoughts?

Certainly depends on the format, OBP vs. AVG, do they have CI/MI spots like RIBC. Are you playing Beckham as your primary 3B?

In an AVG league I think Beltre will have a good season and will produce similar to Beckham. But if you are playing at Beckham at 2B then thats his advantage and I wouldn't trade him.

Beckham is only 3B in Yahoo.

In about 2 weeks he'll be 2B as well.

I would think beckham has significantly more value than either of those players. Even if you have him blocked out of 2b he still is a starter quality player. Those others would leave you pretty weak at a position if you are stuck playing them. I don't know the depth of the league but peralta likely isnt much more than WW material.

Keep Beckham. He has a higher ceiling and some trade value. Nobody takes Beltre or Peralta unless they're forced to. Unless the league is really really deep, Beltre and Peralta probably aren't a whole lot better than players you'll be able to pick up as FA's.
