i would do it - wright is awesome, vlad will be great with abreu in front of him, and victorino hits in stackd lineup with utley back. the others are great too but not having arod for 3 months puts it in the other groups favor.

You're giving up 3 of the 4 best players, so I would just stay pat.

I wouldn't do the first trade. All the guys you are giving up have the potential to be top 20 players. Yes Wright is nice but the other two guys can't make up the difference in this deal.

Getting Upton would help make some of the difference but Marshall doesn't do it. I would stay pat.

I like Wright, but this is a little heavy on his side...

Wright > ARod

Vlad < Berk

Vic < Craw

I would drop crawford and victorino off and go smaller... maybe through in jurrjens

Help me?

Wright is better than Berkman.
Guerrero full season could be better than ARod in however many games he plays.
Crawford is better than Victorino, but its not by much.
IMO the best group is Wright/Guerrero/Victorino.
ARod is a question mark this season. nothing seems to be going right for him, im not sure he can return and just put up the numbers hes been putting up previously. i think ARod is going to be under more pressure than the newly acquired Teixeira.


help?
