Wow. I don't know about this one. I know that Hanson is going to be a beast. Plus the Braves are better than they have been in the last few years. If I were you, I would try to make a 2 for 1 trade. Upgrade one of your positions and lose Shin Soo Cho in the trade then pick up Hanson. I would move on this quickly because he will be coming up soon.

not sure your rotation needs him, especially since he's in the minors right now. choo has been off to a slow start, which doesn't help. but i look at your roster and i'm not sure i'd want him over any of your outfielders or utility. see if you can move choo in a trade, cuz he will have value to someone in a 12 team league. since this is a keeper, i think hanson will make a better choice for the long haul ;-D

I would trade him. What do you have to lose? Choo is on your bench, your active players don't have much injury history outside of Soriano, and Soriano produces whether injured or not. In a 12 team you can always pick up another decent OF, the potential of Hanson outweighs having depth on the bench in this situation if it were me. If C. Young starts to pick things up, I just don't see a screaming need for Choo, and Hanson could be a difference maker.

I would take a chance on Hanson

If I trade Shin Soo Cho or Chris Young what do you think their value is today in 12 team league?

For the last feedback- If you are talking about OF Chris Young, I would have Choo.

Young is going to be worth more most likely. If it is a keeper he will most definitely be worth more. Neither is playing very well right now, so perception is going to lower their trade value for some owners.

They are both young and provide upside, Young has the greater upside though
