Deadline Trade: Prince / CarGo for Braun / Cano / Ichiro WHI

[crudbucket36]

Just got offered my Prince / CarGo for his Cano / Braun / Ichiro
. It worries me that CarGo's BABIP is so high. I don't see a repeat of this year performance and think that he is at his peak in terms of value. Prince has not done his usual stuff this year but he is in his contract year next season and could light it up (I know its terrible to base value on something like contract year but whatever). Obviously, Cano has done well and should either repeat his numbers or do even better and it would give me argueably the two best 2B in the game.

Anyone have any thoughts on this trade? Do I take it or not? Thanks and WHIR

That's an easy yes. CarGo is a great player but I wouldn't put him much higher than Braun. Prince won't be in a contract year next year...I suspect he'll be traded in the off-season and sign an extension with whomever he's traded to.

Yeah....landslide victory for you --- braun and cano are the two most valuable guys in the trade.

DO IT!! This is a numbers deal.....don't over-think it trying to hyper-analyze each player.

You are getting 3 very good players in exchange for 2 very good players. You gotta make the deal.

Sure you could over-think this and try to figure out exactly who is the best player in the trade and by exactly how much better. But that doesn't really make sense on this trade. All 5 guys are roughly in the same ballpark..none of them are the super-elite players like Pujols or Hanley.....but they are all in the next tier down. So, since you are getting 3 guys while giving up only 2I think this is a no-brainer for you.

Usually in a 2-for-3 trade the guy offering 3 players includes 1 or 2 journeymen or borderline chumps. You don't have to worry about this here.

I agree, I'd do that deal if I was you.
