Trading Longoria?

I've driven one of my few friends crazy talking about this topic or has he calls it: my "Three month obsessive odyssey to trading Evan Longoria." But now, a new possible trade target has emerged: Ian Kinsler. Is it better to lock up a top 2nd baseman than a top outfielder?

Usually, I ignore position scarcity and that strategy has served me well over my 8 years of playing fantasy baseball. It's amazing, scary and sad to think I've been playing that long. Sad because there were so many years before I started that went to waste.

I checked with the ESPN Answer Guys and they were in favor of a Kinsler swap and I guess I can see their point. We have 10 teams, but only start 3 OF, so it's pretty shallow in that regard. We don't have a CI spot, but we do use a MI spot. When that was decided 3 years ago, I asked why. The response was that the commissioner "didn't want people just drafting first baseman." Good call there. And with the logic to back it up.

I've looked at a few mock drafts and there are definitely a ton of OF's available in later rounds, while 2b options like KellyJohnson and Placido Polanco are the highlights of their position. So maybe Kinsler is the way to go.

Am I overvaluing Longoria? 3B seems like a top heavy position this year. Arod-Wright-Longoria - Ramirez-Jones-Youkilis. There's a drop after that to guys like Atkins, Blalock and Huff. Oh well. Keepers are due March 1st, so I have almost 4 more weeks to make a decision.

God, this time of year is so boring. I mean, honestly, who can watch Basketball. And anybody who goes to see The Pink Panther 2 should seriously consider killing themselves.
