why? ortiz his hitting over .400 right now and usually picks it up in the middle of june, i could see him putting up big numbers this year. Cruz is in the best lineup in baseball batting 6th will get plenty of RBI chances. Lincy your really selling low i feel.
Trades like this can ruin a team and i can see this making your team worse down the line.

I would do it. McCutchen and Pedoria are the best 2 players involved in the deal. Cruz is a safe bet for under 450 AB's, Ortiz is looking good but I don't think he'll keep it up, and I have no faith in Lincecum being a top 10 pitcher this year. Roberts is just a throw in.
Here's the pitch on the way, a swing and a belt! Left field! Way back! BLUE JAYS WIN!

I would make that deal as well. As the above said, you are getting the two best players in the deal and hoping Cruz stays healthy all year is a pipe dream.
I love that deal for you. Cruz never stays healthy, I don't trust Timmy anymore and Roberts is just a throw in. If you think you can give up a lesser player than Cruz and still get the deal done then go ahead, but I would do it as is. Also as an Ortiz owner I am expecting a big season you are definitely selling high there which doesn't hurt.
