i would say no. Nolasco is better than Vazquez. i think Vazquez is overrated. forget the ERA he had in 2009, thats not going to happen back in the AL with the Yankees. i wouldnt be surprised if his ERA is 4+. Nolasco was unlucky in 2009 and he will bounce back.
im also not a fan of Dempster, hes overrated too.
i like Bruce better than Snider, and im a Jays fan. Snider wont have a good AVG. he strikes out way to much. he has power potential, but so does Bruce.

Definite no for many of the same reasons mentioned by SFNK.

A third "no," I think that you're giving up the two best players in the deal.

Absolutely not. Nolasco is poised for a bounce back of a season.

Besides the first month of the season Nolasco was dominant last year - his ERA is only reflective of how unlucky he was.
