I'd take Swish here... Bobby's OBP is down, strike out rate is up (even if his walk rate is still ok).

They are pretty comparable honestly. I could see Swisher's avg coming down some but he probably stay pretty close to his current pace on all of his other stats. Abreu has the sb advantage. I have Swisher on a team so I would probably lean his way.

Thanks for the help on my post.

I agree that they are probably going to have about the same value going forward. I definitely think swisher's average is going to regress downward towards his career average, but being on the Yankees and playing in their stadium will do wonders for his rbi and homerun production. I'd go with swisher...

Abreu > Swisher for a whole season. I wish swisher well, but there is no way he keeps his numbers up the rest of the year.
