I'd rather roll the dice on Beckham, personally. I keep hearing Prado described as Placio Polanco, which sounds about right. A nice player, but probably not going to win you the league. In Yahoo, Beckham has 2B/3B eligibility, which further diminishes any advantage Prado might have with his position eligibility.
Any advice on my question is appreciated.

I'd rather have Beckham, definitely. He offers a ton more power potential.

Beckham has more upside overall, but if it's a short term fill in, I'd let Prado's avg and lineup make magic happen for now. If you're looking long term, Beckham will likely be more well rounded.
