anyone?

This is a tough call, BUT I think I would bite the bullet and make this deal. King Felix has never gone a season "HEALTHY" and remember he still plays for the sad sack Mariners. Alex Rios had an OK season last year, minus the homers, I think he busts out this year with a 30/30 season, at the minimum 25/30 should eclipse Pence's numbers with eaz..... PLUS you can spare the Pitcher. Solid Rotation and gives you an amazing OF.

I GO BATTERS EVERY TIME, over the PITCHER.

good point. overall though, does the improvement the trade does to my of outweigh the hit my rotation takes?

[C2ThaLo88]

I would think so. A hitter like Rios should outweigh a pitcher like Felix. Haren is basically an ace anyways, and Liriano as well. Harang could easily bounce back this year, so I think you're in better shape than you think.
