I can get Pedroia by giving up Hanson in my 14 team redraft league.

Currently, I have Saeger at 2B and my picking depth is ok.

Anybody think Pedroia is too high a risk given the injury. Hanson has been very inconsistent.

WHIR. Thx.

Pedroia has MVP-level upside at a very thin position, and although he's been fighting injuries the past couple years, they are mostly flukes and minor ones (fouling a ball off his foot and a thumb injury that he is supposedly completely healed from now). Hanson has been touted to have Cy Young level upside since his introduction into the league a few years ago but aside from a glimmer here and there, he seems to be a middle-of-the-rotation guy to me. I would absolutely trade him for Pedroia if given the opportunity.

I think that is a steal for you. Pedroia might have some question marks but Hanson is hardly an Ace and has a lot more issues to worry about. Take Pedroia and run.
