I'm very happy with what Cuddyer has provided for my team thus far, however, I don't see him keeping this up -- which I believe is a common opinion amongst pretty much the entire fantasy universe. I'd like to explore the trade market for him and see if I can get something of value. My problem is that I just don't know where to start, like who do you think is a nice middle ground between his current value and his value should his peripherals catch up with him?
I've included my team analysis just for shits and giggles. Also its a keeper league and Cuddyer could be kept in the 15th round next year (not sure a 33 year old holds much keeper appeal though).

We're projecting him to hit 40 points below his current average the rest of the way, that seems like pretty good middle ground to me. Set a baseline for what you think he will do and don't accept anything less. In other words, don't trade him just to do it, because I don't think there are many questions that he'll be "of value" the rest of the way himself.

As Buser said, don't just give him away, or trade him just because...he can hit. Last year pre break in 82 games he was sitting at 44/12/50/8. Injuries deralied him second half, and that's going to be the main issue with him. But, my guess is many didn't know he put up that type of line in the first 82 games last year. He should taper off some in the second half, but if healthy he will provide nice value and stats.
