Nice pitching staff. ;-D

Not a bad deal but I'm not too big on Young really. If you could try to sub out CC and replace him with Lee instead that would be better IMO but if you're just looking to fill in the holes on your team, this trade is not bad.

No way. Stay put with the bases you already have.

I'd like it better with Cliff Lee, but overall this is a solid deal for you.

I have to agree with the masses here, as the upgrade from Ichiro to Crawford isn't nearly as big as the downgrade to Young.

Yes do this. Here's why. Michael Young plays a mean first half every year. Ride him and then trade him at the end of may beginning of June. You will get more bang for your buck.

Young is a throwaway in this deal..it's basically CC and Ichiro for Crawford, which is far from even...

Please help
