Both trades leave you with a hole at outfield so we'll consider positionness a wash.

I like the first trade a lot more. I think Morneau will do better in the second half because I don't expect a lot of teams to pitch to AGo. Not a lot of protection. Morneau has a better lineup. Also, I like Burnett as a quality ace moving forward. Lackey hasn't performed too well this year.

Also, I think you lose a lot of power in the second deal whereas in the 1st, Choo isn't a huge drop. He's a good 5 tool guy but doesn't dominate any 1 cat.

help?
