I wouldn't do this trade if I were you. With Mcab and Arod, you'll be set at 1B and 3B for years to come. Berkman seems to have inconsistent seasons, last year being "on," and this year being "off." Hamilton is a high risk keeper because of his injuries, although we all know what he can do. I think you can actually keep Mcab, Arod, Halladay, and your choice of Sandoval/Hamels/Gallardo. That's still a very strong keeper list, more so I think than Pujols, Berkman, Hamilton, and Halladay.

Can you post what your keepers would be before and after the trade? Is this a roto league or one of those H2H category ones? Will Berkman slot into one of your Utility spots when he returns? Without knowing that info I'll do my best

I'm not a fan of Hamilton and I think Berkman is starting to get older (nursing an injury right now) and i would imagine you will not be using a keeper spot on him. Considering that you are giving up Arod and M Cab (both keepers, right?) for one keeper in Pujols.

I think this trade gives you a slight edge for this year but I think it's a bad trade for you in the long run. I would pass on this trade
