Look for a team in your league that is incredibly bad in one category. Then, see if that team has one player who, unlike the rest of the team, is very good at that one particular category. Make that team an offer for that player. Afterall, the category superstar is adding no value to his current team (he can't win the category all by himself). The manager should be happy to get someone of slightly lesser overall value in return.
Example: My friend Marc's team has only 1 closer (Mariano Rivera). He has only won the saves category one week all season. I point out to Marc that although Mariano Rivera is a dominant closer, he's adding no value to his team. We decide that Mariano is rated the 80th best fantasy player in baseball and Marc is happy to trade him to me for an outfielder ranked 100th.

I really don't understand. It seems like the other manager would be happier to get a higher overall player, but you'd be happy to get the high category player. Otherwise, what is he getting out of it?
