Message: [QUOTE="Dooley, post: 2934183, member: 2920"] Agreed. I'm not sure how much better the Yanks would be swapping Stanton for Harper either (plus whatever they get in a Stanton trade) other than they'd be swapping a RH bat for a LH one. I think it would make more sense if they swapped Stanton for Machado (plus whatever they get in a Stanton trade) just from a position defense standpoint. But that would mean either finding a trade partner for Andujar or moving him across the diamond to 1B. They could then use the Dan Hurley hitter's hole to rotate Andujar and Sanchez as they're the 2 weakest defenders on the diamond. At the end of the day, there are just so many moving parts and most of those parts are way to expensive to be flippant with. Of all the proposed trades, I like the Mets best (even if it meant eating more money). But those two teams making a blockbuster trade is about as likely as Boston College hand delivering an ACC invitation to UConn tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
