Looking for an outfielder

I was hoping I could replace Arcia with Victorino next week, but apparently Vic has been shut down with back pain. So, I'm looking to trade for an outfielder. I have some infield depth and some starting pitching depth. Let me know if you think we might match up.

Mike Trout is on the table...maybe

If I'm unable to win this league during my 4 years of owning super-cheap Mike Trout, well, I don't know what I'll do to myself, but my mother will cry!

Toward the end of preventing me from harming myself, I just want to put it out there early that I'm willing to sell Mike Trout in a dump trade to maximize my chances of winning this year. It's still too early for anybody to pack it in, and I'm not going to contact anybody individually for just yet as it seems a bit insulting to do so. But, if you're in the cellar and are thinking about what keepers you want to lock up for 2015, be thinking about Mike Trout.

As a reminder, Trout is $19 and 2015 is the last year on his contract. You'll have to be willing to pretty much tear your roster apart for me to part ways with him. The salary cap/floor might just make it impossible. I haven't looked for any specific deals yet, so I don't know. As usual with dump trades, the earlier you pack it in the more likely I am to sell.
