I would take it...you have more hitting cats so I would go with Upton

I normally would have said no, but given that there are 8 hitting cats to 5 pitching, I would do it.

meh, with Markakis, Quentin, Wells, Abreu and Adam Jones, McCutchen on your bench you really have no need for another OF. I'd stand pat with Gallardo.

I would probably keep Gallardo as well- I think Upton has a few more years of being very inconsistient while Gallardo I think will be a stud as early as this year. You really can't go wrong with either though, but your lineup would suggest to stick with Gallardo.

Upton is arguably the most talented young player in baseball. No way I am passing on him here for Gallardo.
