EE is edwin encarnacion im guessing? Depending on your needs...problem with heyward is his streaky, last 30 days his been the 24th best player in fantasy but the alst 30 days be4 that he was prolly around 150 best in fantasy, I do think that the streakiness can stop and he can be a consitant player but that would be the risk taking in him. EE you just have to figure his the next joeybats, everyone thought joeybats was gonna slow down and it was a fluke so why not think EE can keep it up.
i think your really only losing out on steals but realisticly its castro with 16 and EE/heyward with 18.

zero chance i make this trade. sandoval is looking good and that lineup is heating up. Castro gets you some consistent numbers at SS. EE i mean every week that he is healthy Im surprised. Heyward,,who knows. Id take sandavol over heyward all day and ill take castro over EE all day.
Making this trade, you are basically paying beyond full price for Edwin. His value couldnt be higher, even though he isnt young/injury risk and has never produced numbers like this in his career. Id never make a trade where im paying this kind of price unless its someone very young and very healthy and has a proven track record.
I prefer Castro and Sandoval myself. I'm not a big believer in E5. I think that Heyward has a nice 2nd half, but it won't be better than what you have right now. Don't be discouraged by Castro's lack of steals. You drafted him only anticipating around 20 anyway. He's a SS wth incredible bat control hitting out of the 3-hole. He should post solid numbers across the board.
After looking at your team I would probably try and target a good starting pitcher rather than try and get a few bats instead. Might want to use the closer you threw in to get a starter.
