16 team, head-to-head, standard scoring..

I was offered LeMahieu and Pujols for Cano and Tex.

Pujols coming off of foot surgery but looks ready for opening day, while Tex has a bad back he has been dealing with. By our scoring system, I gain about 100 points but that is with Pujols hitting 40 jacks, not sure he will keep that up. Cano is a constant 150-155 game player. I am leaning towards accepting just to get out from under Tex, plus LeMahieu had 23 SB's last year at 2 points per.

Advice always welcomed......thanks

Cano is the best piece in this deal... Pujols is close to Teixiera... LeMahieu is nowhere close enough to get Cano...

So Cano side wins this deal, and it is not even close...

I wouldnt

Cano tearing up the spring, and just a strong hunch he reminds everyone he could still rake, after a great second half last season

Lemehieu is a nice player, but a dime a dozen in a very strong 2nd base class this season

Pujols already entering the season dinged up, this could be the season he really nosedives in production and games played

Tex is in a walk year, was a Top 5 MVP type player last season before fouling a ball off his leg.......I think he could flat out be better than Pujols this season, and Cano should be light years better than DJ

Same here. Pujols wasn't all that great from June on if I recall. I don't see a difference between he and Tex. Both have power upside, streaky play, and risk of injury. Cano is in my shit list, but I don't deny he could still be very good. Lemahieu might have just had his career year.... maybe not, but I'd rather bank on Cano rebounding to 75% of his best years, which is still better than a career year from DJL.

Thanks for the input. I am gonna keep Cano and Tex. The guy who offered the trade also has Goldy and Trout, but obviously he won't let either of them go.

I would not do it either. Cani is the only sure thing there, and I actually think Tex's production could be comparable to Pujols'
