I traded Gregory Polanco and Houston Street for David Price in a ten team H2H categories league. Already had 4 better closers than Street (Robertson, Rosenthal, Perkins, and Cishek). Also have 4 OFs of Choo, Bruce, C. Gomez, and B. Moss. I made the right move right?

Hard to say without more context, such as where you needed the help, but the guess is that you needed a SP upgrade, so you appear to have done fine.
