some have been down on upton but considering the age and stats, I'd take upton/hart

personally, I have no faith in volquez repeating so I'd go with Soria over him or lopez too.

The Upton side is the deal I would take. As for the last keeper, I like Edinson Volquez. Even if he does not repeat he will be a good SP. If there is depth available in the SP position I would take Soria. I usually do not like taking CL because there are often good CL available cheaply, like a Rafael Soriano type guy, who are still able to produce good #s.

Really ? I thought this was a pretty lopsided trade for the Upton/Hart side. Why would you take Atkins/Lee ?

I don't like the Upton hype, but I would still go the Upton/Hart side of things. Pujols, MCabb and Lee are all power hitters that aren't going to get you alot of SBs, where Upton and Hart will. Now Upton for Lee straight up I'd take. Lee is going to hit over .300 with 100-30-100 power. That would still leave you with Beltran, Sizemore, and Hart in double digit steals, with players like Willie Taveras and Denard Span probably still available in later rounds to fill SBs if you really want them. Soria as your last keeper would be the best pick there too.
