You are not capitalizing on A-Rod's true value if you trade him now. No one can properly value him: that is why it is such a poor time to trade him. However, if you were going to trade him anyway, you have to look at a top ten starter. A pitcher like Oswalt or Harden seems to make sense.

I agree w/the previous poster on it being a real bad time to try to get the true value for A-Rod. Furthermore I say u don't even consider moving him. I'm assuming u start 2 utilities, when A-Rod comes back u move Hill to 2b (this guy is a stud in the making) and u throw A-Rod in at utility, ur lineup is good to go. Pitching imo is far too inconsistent to trade a talent like A-Rod for. Keep him and reap the rewards (as I plan to) of getting him in the draft later then ever before. Hope that helps, here's mine, please take a look.
