Do it. I understand Longoria is a top 5-7 draft pick but arod's not that far off (in Yahoo anyway), he's right around 13-15 and besides steals they may produce the same...Sanchez is a downgrade from Youk but he's still showing signs of maturing very well; I don't know whether he'll keep it up, but Florida keeps scoring runs and he should provide you with solid numbers...and then Hernandez vs Zambrano isn't even worth going into details haha so based off of this I think it would be a solid trade. Thanks for your help on mine, good luck!

Thanks for the input. I'm definitely leaning towards taking this. Hate to lose Longo, but A-Rod is decent compensation for him. A little gamble on Sanchez compared to Youk's consistency, but considering his upside along with the big upgrade at pitcher I think it'll be worth a shot. Plus, I've got Hosmer waiting in the wings so hopefully one of them will be solid this season.

I wouldn't even think twice about this trade. I don't like the fact that you guys are referring to a-rod as he isn't that far off from longoria. A-rod might put up better numbers by the time the season is over with Tampa's depleted lineup. Felix Hernandez for Zambrano? I don't think the guy doing this trade knows who Feliz Hernandez is. And gabby sanchez for youk isn't that since you are getting Felix. I would do it and feel confident about it.
