Jay Bruce Trade *WHIR*

[michaelyoung4prez]

Thinking of doing this deal...

My Bruce and Ike Davis for Matt Cain, Axford and Hanrahan. I need a stud SP and some closers pretty bad and got De Aza to take over @ RF and could pick up Francouer (know he's slow to start) and Parra or Reddick up for some depth. Quick help in return

Your weakness is pitching and you address it by getting a solid ace and a solid closer, so although you lose Bruce I say go for this deal strictly because of your team needs.

Getting 2 closers and an Ace is definitely a great price for Bruce, Ike Davis SHOULD get better, but he's been awful to this point so far, and it doesnt hurt too bad to lose him.
