I would rather have Davis and his tremendous hitting/power prowess, as much as it hurts to drop Soto, Davis is your man. I would be looking to upgrade and deal two for one if at all possible.

I'd keep Davis and throw him in at 3b.

Davis is being hyped way too much. I'd much rather have Soto who's more proven and at a much shallower position.

Toss up really. I would keep Soto, because i think he has the less risk.

SOTO - I'd rather have the best/2nd best C in the game than a CI. There are too many CI sluggers. Soto is a great player in such a shallow position.

I'd go with Soto myself. Not as much risk. You know he is going to produce. Davis as good as he is is still a little bit of a question mark.

please help

Sure he is being hyped, but for good reason. He has mashed at every level he has played including almost a half a season in the majors last year. Yes he is a bit riskier than soto, but players with his raw power and the ability to hit for a high average do not come around too often. Personally I am willing to take a little risk on a player capable of hitting .300 with 40+ dinger potential.
