Trade Sizemore for McCutchen?

[phorts]

I just sent Sizemore in a trade over for McCutchen. Am I dumb or would he be dumb to accept? WHIR as always please leave a link

If I needed the power Id take Sizemore but in a keeper or if I was in need of speed Id take McCutchen.

Not a deal I'm crazy about, selling Sizemore pretty low here.

The problem is McCutchen has no protection.

I am all over these Sizemore trades and yesterday I got some stats to back it up. I think your trade was PERFECT! I am a die hard Indians fan but Sizemore has scared me for a while now. Look what espn was talking about yesterday!

""Sizemore's K rate has soared to a career-high 27.1 percent, and his walk rate has dropped to 7.6 percent, his lowest number since 2005. Inside Edge also reveals that a key strength of his, plate discipline, has eroded this season: He has chased 'noncompetitive' pitches (defined as pitches not near the strike zone) 23 percent of the time, noticeably north of the 18 percent major league average, and well above his 14, 14 and 13 numbers of the past three seasons. He also has put only 28 percent of off-speed swings into play, his worst number since 2007, and batted just .136 on off-speed pitches. … Sizemore might not bat higher than .250 if he can't correct his issues."
--Tristan H. Cockcroft, Hit Parade "

In my opinion you got out from under a guy who is going to SUBSTANTIALLY underperform this year! Good trade.

Sizemore is playing in Cold Clevland, When it wamrs up so will he. Texiera always starts bad also. 2 years ago Sizemore was the talk of the town, he got hurt last year and everyone jumped from the bandwagon. I think mid may this player will become his old self again and out produce McCutchen from that point to the end of the year. he has 30 30 potential and will see alot of fastballs with Choo tearing up the ball!

My vote is Sizemore is better then McCutchen
