Wow, why not just switch teams? This deal looks pointless. I personally don't even consider giant 8 player trades like this. Guys who offer these trades are just looking to trade because they think it's fun. Collecting baseball cards would be a more advisable hobby for them. Pass, it does nothing for either of you.

I agree. Granted, I have a 6-player trade posted for discussion, but here there is not even a slight advantage to be gained in making this trade. You are giving up a top five pick for a top five pick (Reyes is hugely valuable in h2h), and then:

Lee > Hawpe
McCann > VMart (will bounce back, this year, however)
Votto (going to break out even more this year) > Peralta

I do not see why you would consider something like this.
