Definitely, I'd do it. I'm not sure why you're holding onto two 2B - Roberts is solid and consistent. You don't need two of them - Brian Roberts isn't someone you'd ever need to bench.

So, I would have just dropped DeRosa anyway, so you if you can get anything out of him...like Jackson...I'd take it.

Help with mine?

I'd do it. I think Jackson is the real deal. A 14 game winner last year with good K's. Detroit will be a better team this year and I think Jackson should have a good summer.

Absolutely. You're trading a bench player for someone who would immediately be your 3rd or 4th best stater.

I'd do it to. I've seen Jackson pitch a few times this season and he's definitely better. I think he'll be a solid starter all season long.
