I wouldn't do it. I think Adrian does slightly better than Manny from a purely statistical perspective. I think he hits 4-5-6 more HRs. I think Felix and Oswalt is almost a wash. I'm not too high on Oswalt this year. Still a very good pitcher, but his days as a #1 fantasy stud might be over. And Bell is already THE closer for the Padres while you'd have to be waiting that Soriano takes over the job in ATL and then stays healthy.

opinion please:

I wouldn't either. I think Felix is above Oswalt. Bell is going to have a great year. And Manny may have more avg, but it's not worth losing the pitching.

I would not make this move. Manny is a better hitter, but Adrian is no slouch, and he will put up stellar numbers. In this point in Oswalt's career I would say King Felix could be as good or better than he is, and Heath Bell is 10x more valuable than Rafael Soriano.
