I prefer 2 over 1, but I'm not in love with either.

I dont really like either deal.

If you're trying to win this year you definitely don't want to trade away Utley and you don't really need to add Santana to that staff that's already sporting the 2 best SP's in the game.

You don't need Greinke either so I don't see the point in the 2nd trade either.

Id be looking to improve your hitting (UT slots) Maybe sell high on Cain who's been unreal his past few starts. You won't miss him with Halladay, Ubaldo and CC (once he returns to form)
