I would do the 2nd one, you still would have figgins to replace the loss in SBs and you would get Ibanez who should have a pretty good year in Philly

please help

I like the first trade better but I think it's because you're actually giving less than you are in the second. Having Figgins cover third, let alone Mora, is a buzzkill, but you'd also have less of an outfield jam with the first one. Needless to say, you have more than enough saves even without Papelbon.

That said, I'd try shopping Milledge around, ideally for another SP.
