Hey WC :

Welcome to the board... so long as you have at least one solid SB guy (or a few middle tier), this is a must trade.  Kenny Rogers has been lights out, but he won't win 20 games.

The most he has had in a season in his career?  18.  20 would be a stretch... even on the hot Tigers (they won't stay this hot all season).

I REALLY like Chris Young this year over the long haul as a solid 3rd pitcher.  You lose a #1 pitcher for a #3, but Young pitches in a pitcher's park and he has pretty decent stuff.

As for Big Papi, you get one of the best fantasy players in all of baseball for a solid SB guy.  Gregg really likes Chone, as do I... Chone will, indeed, get 50+ SBs this year, and he will hit close to .300 (if not over)... don't let the .262 fool ya...

But, for Papi... I might give my left nut. ;)
