braun, tulowitzki and chris perez for pujols and broxton

If you're getting Pujols and Broxton then this is a no brainer for me. Pujols is a superstar and Broxton is an extremely talented closer playing for one of the best teams in the league.

Do it.

i wold be getting rid of pujols and broxton...i would be upgrading my ss position bigtime because ryan theriot is my current ss....so tulowitzki is a big pickup for me but do you thinks its worth giving up pujols for braun while upgrading ss and getting a possible closer in the nearby future?

Theriot is having a really nice year so far, def no slouch. Tulow is a huge injury risk and I think the dropoff between Pujols>Braun and Broxton>Perez is just too much. Shortstop is a crazy position there are really only 3 guys who are in the top tier (Reyes, Hanley, Rollins,) the rest are wayyyyyyy below. I think Theriot falls in the low 2nd or 3rd tier which is fine plus he will hit for average and steal bases.

I would do this trade without hesitation...you are gettin the best player in baseball and a top 5 closer in my opinion....Braun is a stud but Im not sold on tulo and perez is a scrub....DO IT

thanks for all your help guys....im gonna try and modify this trade a little bit so im not losing out....the guy who offered this trade to me also has cc sabathia....maybe ill counter offer and include sabathia....do you think it would be worth if I replaced tulo with sabathia?
