Span... Damon is old, injury prone, and heading from the tiny New Yankee Stadium to cavernous Detroit. In the Twins lineup, Span is golden.

I'd go with Span as well. Old, gets hurt, and moving from Boston and NY will hurt his value quite a bit. His age will catch up to him fast. Span will only get better. Good luck!

Span all the way.....he has alot of upside....while Damon will be moving from a park that was built perfectly for his swing to a cavernous park.

Span ... and even if you end up flush with speed, he is better trade bait than Damon.

Agree - I like Damon this year, but Span is still better.

Help if you can?

I like Span. He'll give you a good average, decent steals, and a good number of runs by being at the top of that lineup. Damon is on the downturn and it's really a pretty easy decision.
