would much much rather the pujols side
albert puts up better overall numbers in the end compared to soriano (who probably misses some time this season, but the avg will settle in the .280 range, and the extra 15-20 SBs dont make up for the avg drop, and then there is the power difference)
people love pedroia as a fantasy player...i dont (and im a red sox fan)...until last season he hadnt hit 15 HRs in a season since something like high school, so i wouldnt expect him to push much past that again...overall he and grandy put up similar numbers, with an avg edge to pedroia
the real kicker in the deal is the pitching...greinke is for real this season and should finish as a top 10 SP (and could easily be top 5 if the royals score enough to get him the Ws)...fuentes is a good not great closer, and there are far more of those types than greinkes
