Here is an excerpt from Book 6. To read the entire book visit The Fantasy Baseball Bible

1) Trading is the single scariest move you can make in fantasy baseball. Trades can rescue a season, win a season, or ruin a season. For the most part you do not need to trade during the fantasy baseball season while still winning. The first lesson in this book should be that. Only trade when you have to trade and don’t trade just because. Trading can be Pandora's Box, and you never know what you will get. If you come to the conclusion that you must trade in order to improve your team, then ask yourself the following questions.
2) Who can I trade without making my team significantly weaker, especially at that position?
3) Do I have back up players to replace the players lost in the trade?
4) Is the player I'm receiving superior to the player I'm trading or replacing?
5) Before you commit to the idea of trading you have to know why you are making the trade. You should go through the pre-trade preparations so when the trade does occur you are ready.
6) After you've completed your pre-trade preparations, you have to enter negotiations. This is the meat of trade strategies. Knowing what to say and not to say is the difference in winning.
7) We will also cover trade research. You have to know as much as possible about the players involved in the deal. You don't want to trade for a guy and find out the next day he was sent to the minors!
