I would do it. Santana's only huge edge over Vazquez is in ERA, with a solid WHIP advantage, and minimal K and W advantage. And in H2H ERA is the category you should be least concerned with, as it fluctuates quite a bit week to week.

Pujols has a pretty big advantage over Davis in R, RBI, and BA, and is a better bet in HR as well. SB might even favor Pujols a little.

Honestly I would do it too. Pujols is a major upgrade over Davis(and I love Davis). Johan is great but there is alot of pitching depth this year. I would do it without Vazquez involved but getting him is a bonus. I think he will do very well now that he's back in the national league.

in a redraft i'd definitely make it. i'd probably make it in a keeper as well, but it would be closer.

I would do it as well, Pujols is a big upgrade over Davis, and you have a decent staff already. Do it
