Aramis Ramírez for Alex Rios Trade?

[tailgate13]

I am in a keeper league with the following parameters (and rosters listed below)

looking for some advice on how to proceed with a trade offer?

I offered 3B Aramis Ramírez for OF Bobby Abreu he countered with OF Alex Rios.

Rios has upside but I wonder if he will evolve enough to make this trade worth wild?

tough decision. I like Rios potential alot, however also like Ramirez in this deal......at the end of the day i would pull the trigger and take Rios only becuase of his upside.

No, no, no. Rios is a turd. ARam is a monster when healthy.

I agree totally... Rios is pretty much worthless compared to Aram.
