M. Holliday for N. Markakis

[basesloaded]

4 yr keeper... do i trade Holiday who is in his last year for Markakis who is in his 3rd

[bigsilkysmooth]

As a Markakis owner I would take this deal. Everything you read about Holiday's numbers being hurt by going to Oakland seem to be true. I know its early but Holiday's numbers away from Coors Field give you an idea of what he is going to do this year. He is still big time talent but a guy like Markakis is just as valuable in my book, especially in a 4 yr keeper.

2 years of Mark or 1 of Holliday?

Giddy up.

thanks guys... now he wants me to toss in J Hermida who is in his 1st yr of 4

Nah. Sit back and wait him out.

I'd take Markakis, but don't forget that Holliday is a candidate to get traded if Oakland struggles this year.

Id definitely take Markakis. He will rock this year in the Os lineup. He hit a ton of doubles last year and that often heralds an increased HR total the next year in a budding slugger. 2 Years >>1 year. Hope this helps.

The years left on their contract make it for me. Gotta be Markakis. If you had another year of Holliday outside of OAK, I would easily go for him, but you're paying for his Oakland service and that makes it an easy choice.

Please take a look at mine:

You guys are missing part of his post. The other guy is also NOW asking for Hermidia to be included. thats why I said Yes to a one for one but to sit back and wait the other guy out.
