TEX / PHI

[Cdawg]

To put in in general perspective in terms of draft pick value(please take it from me, that's the pick I hovered around for about 3 seasons) the 2nd gets you something like a 68/87 prospect. the 3rd can net you a prospect of 63/83 value(infact I traded a 2B that is 88 peak) That 4th still is a prospect like 60/80.

Now to put it in #'s you traded 7-2...yes 7 players for 2. LOGICALLY your trading an allstar for 3-4 players. Ask Mike. Last year I traded Bryan Deforest a 52/80(I beleive) for 2...yes 2 players...1 78/78 player and an 84 overall Martin Prado. Find Prado on my team and ask yourself what a 90ish contact hitter is doing hitting .260?
.260 is very pedestrian in any sense and in any league. Infact minus age and Cobb and Prado are solid comparisons. Cobb has not proved that he is earning that 82 power judging by his .360 slugging. again the number .360 is extremely mediocre.

This is gonna get denied and your best bet is to ASK someone what fair value is your basically trading in 1,000,000 in Euros and expecting 1,000,000 in American dollars... if you know the currency exchange(last I remember) the rate is 5:3 for every 5 Euros you get 3 American Dollars.
