Trade Cespedes for R. Zimmerman?

I am stacked with OFers. Need to unload at least one. Got a offer to trade Cespedes to get Zimmerman. Any thoughts?

    In order to answer your question I really need to know who you currently have at 3B and OF. Looking at it straight up, it is a pretty fair trade with the exception of loosing the steals Cespedes will give you. Zimmerman may give you a few more HR's as he is better protected with the strength of the Washington lineup and plays in a slightly more hitter friendly park. Zimmerman's stats were deflated last year due to playing through a shoulder injury. He should be back over 30 bombs this year. Cespedes is a true five tool guy with 30 30 potential.

    As a one for one deal Cespedes wins, however, it depends on your current 3B strength and depth of OF.

    If your stacked with outfielders then yes you should do it. Zimmerman had an off year but he should get back. He will be a help to your league with home runs.
