Umm, why don't ya just ask who is better: Rowand or Ichiro?

Oh didn't see the diff 3B, I take it back....

Ok well anyways it's just A-Rod/Rowand or Ichiro/A-Ram. In that case I'd prolly say Ichiro/A-Ram, cause I'm not very big on Rowand. But you could prolly trade A-Rod and get very good value ...but if your not then I stick when the other side I chose.

cause i have ramirez in for arod too

Wouldn't it be easier to ask which is better: ARod/Rowand or Aramis/Suzuki?


...the answer of which obviously comes down to your eval on Rowand.

[jeff926]

sorry... bad way to post... but, which group do you think is better?

AROD and ROWAND
vs.
ICHIRO and A. RAMIREZ

[Tavish]

Like Yanks said, it basically comes down to what you think about Rowand. Personally I think he is pretty highly overrated and would easily take Ichiro and the dropoff at 3B. Ichiro will win 3 categories over Rowand and by much larger margins than what A-Rod will beat A-Ram.

[TheYanks04]

Comes down to what you think or Rowand. Obviously Arod is the best player of that group.

I agree here 100%. I like to trade so I would take Arod and Rowand and try to trade both of them together and fill some of the weaknesses(either categories or positions) on my team. Everything is relative to what the rest of your team looks like and what you need.
