What to do with zimmeran and cantu?

Question

I have currently have ryan zimmerman on my DL spot. He is set to come off the DL tuesday. My current 3B is jorge cantu . I cant move cantu to 1B or util because I have morneau and fielder. My question is who do I deal: Cantu or Zimmerman?

Answer 1

I'd trade Zimmerman. You'll get more for him because of the name and Cantu is having a good enough offensive season to compensate.

Answer 2

I say trade Cantu or someone else who is not been very helpful. YOu get someone back, like a pitcher. Zimmerman plays some phenomenal defense at third base and he's a fantastic pure hitter, able to consistently line the ball to the gaps with a little power. Cantu's plate discipline is definitely a problem that can hurt his overall approach. Doesn't steal a lot of bases. Is below average with the glove. Get a middle relief pitcher.
