Should i accept this trade?

no i think pedroia is gonna play better second half and u dont know wut ur going to get out of zobrist for sure

Who just called Hunter average? Hunter is the #10 player so far up to date and basically saved the Angels from disaster while Guerrero was out. He's a multi-category guy who, even if injured, could still post a 30-30 season. Few OF will give that to you. Victorino will get you the steals, but will he give you the power that Hunter has? I'm not advocating anything, just pointing out that Hunter isn't "average."

I wouldn't exactly call Loney a star either. Loney has the RBI numbers, but he's more projected to be going 15-15-100 given his current pace. His power is just not what anyone would be looking for in a 1B.

Hawpe has been stellar in the first half of the season and has finally figured out how to hit lefties. He can post good numbers and his power/RBI production is stellar as well.

Zobrist is a wild-card. If he can keep it up, then you get the good end of the stick.(though you might be pressed for depth [you are giving a 1B, 2B, OF, and receiving 2 OF and 1 Multi-positional guy]) I would have faith that Zobrist can keep it up. The guy's OPS is off the charts and he's been getting on base at an amazing clip. To put it in perspective, his OPS is wavering around Pujols's OPS. That's amazing.

Pedroia is a good player. Don't get me wrong. He gets the hits and he gets the runs and SBs. He did win MVP last year. Kudos to him.

The "torino" part of the Bran-Torino alliance, Victorino hasn't been horrible either. He's been doing very well, scoring a wealth of runs and stealing bases.

Basically, in a nutshell. You might be giving up a wealth of run scorers. (Both Victorino and Pedroia have 60+ runs) and would be giving up depth (you would need someone to step in at 1B) and you would be receiving an injured Hunter, who has played well this season up to date. Forget the SB's, Zobrist and Hunter (when he returns) can minimize that pain.

I would take this trade if you a.) need OF and b.) Can afford a decrease in runs (Zobrist/Hawpe's Runs Scored [50~ish] should minimize the pain of losing the runs), and c.) need HR and RBI's. The latter group can drive in runs and mash, the latter can score runs (All have fewer than 10 HR's each).

.

No. Do not accept. Loney has been the star for the dodgers, pedroia has been the star for the sox, and victorino has been having a solid season for the phills. Hunter's injured so you won't get much production from him for a while, hawpe has been having a pretty good season, and Ben Zobrist has been pretty overrated in my opinion. So do not accept. :)

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Victorino is consistent, Pedroia's the star of one of the best teams in baseball, and Loney is one of the better pitchers in the MLB. Hawpe's pretty good, but you need more than an injured player thats average when hes healthy and ben zobrist (ovvveerrrrraattteddddddddddd) to make the trade.

Oh good lord... 3 guys for 3 guys? We can't help you with a decision like that. Do you need stolen bases? Do you need HRs? What about positions, do you have a need for a guy like Hawpe that you can put in at multiple positions?

Too many questions dude, sorry. Good luck though!

I wouldn't but that's just me. It wouldn't be a terrible trade but I wouldn't do it.
