Christ that's the biggest roster I've ever seen in my life, ha. I can barely decipher it.

Anyway, look at the trade this way:

Braun > Beltran
Feliz < Halladay (though very close)
Cruz > Delgado (though again, close. just my opinion)
Blalock < Fuentes (becuase of the saves, and blalock is incredibly replaceable)

I like the trade but it leaves you with only one closer (albeit Fuentes isnt that great), so I might stand pat for that reason. If that doesn't bother you though, you are getting the best player in the deal, and the rest is pretty even, so go for it.

Help?

In a keeper, I'm going with the Braun side. Value-wise at the moment, the Beltran/Halladay wins out a bit, but Braun is one of those keepers I'd deem untouchable today and in the long term, which makes the deal worth it. I also think Felix will break out in full, especially if he gets past the historically bad May splits this year.
