I think I would rather the hitter. Other SP wil come along...so I would go for Cantu. However, is ther a second guy you can include to get both?

Capps for Galarraga isn't really good IMO. Capps is really an underrated closer. Yeah, he doesn't get the opportunities other guys get. But he gives you rock solid ratios and has a stranglehold on the closer job. Now Cantu would be pretty good, and would fill the weakest spot in your lineup.

Neither. Capps is better than most. K's not fantastic, but ERA and WHIP are solid.
