Shields for Cano or Haren for Howard?

Question

Currently my pitchers are Verlander, Peavey, Haren, James Shields, John Danks, and Ben Sheets. I have an offer where I would trade James Shields for Robbie Cano. Another offer I have is Dan Haren for Ryan Howard. Haren is better than Shields but Howard is better than Cano, but Cano usually heats up in the second half. What should i do?

Answer 1

If you aren't producing runs, take the Haren/Howard deal. If you are, don't you friggin' dare break that  starting pitching murderers row you've assembled.

Answer 2

Howard for Haren there is no reason just to assume Canoe will heat up he really is not hitting well and not showing much promise.  If Canoe does not heat up you will just have another player to drag down your team and take up space on your bench and Howard shows no signs of slowing his amazing hitting while the D-Backs are struggling so Haren might get less wins than Sheilds.
