Would you say this is a fair trade now?

Question

Josh Hamilton for Alex Rodriguez?

Just curious. Wanna know what you people think. One of my friends have already said its an unfair trade?

What do you think?

Answer 1

For right know you can say it's a fair deal but it depends how your team is if you got somebody to replace A-Rod and if your OF needs some help then take it I know that if I had Chase Headley in the bench and my OF was like W. Taveras, M.Bradley, and N.Markakis I would take the deal. I know your team is not like that but I am just making an example.

Answer 2

I'd say its fair, Hamilton is tearing it up for now, while Rodriguez will continue to be good the thing that makes it unfair is the fact that Rodriguez is a "big" name, performance wise it is fair, but based on popularity no definitely not fair cuz Rodriguez is a headliner!

Answer 3

The infield positions are more incredibly valuable than those in the outfield and since the hitting of both is more or less equal I would take A Rod over Hamilton but for the Rangers case taking a salary that large doesn't help them and the Yankees don't get anything they don't already have. They need pitching not Josh Hamilton.

Answer 4

hamilton is no longer killing opposing pitchers and a-rod stats dont look as good cuz he missed some time. i assure u that hamilton will have a worst second half. arod will be as hot as any players in baseball. he will be the more productive and is just a matter of time before he catches hamilton is rbi's and runs. home runs, maybe, but rbi's and runs definetly. so i guess what im trying to sya is: NO WAY

Answer 5

No i dont think hamilton will continue his dominance and A- rod is a consistent player.
