Fantasy Question Of The Day

Would you trade Alex Rodriguez right now for Albert Pujols? A month ago, this would have been a slam dunk. Pujols was the consensus #1 overall pick. And coming off of a sub-par year by his standards A-Rod was slipping to the middle of the first round.

Now, it's April 24. A-Rod is closing out one of the finest months in big league history and Pujols is still slumping.
So would you sell A-Rod high to get Pujols while he's, perhaps a bit undervalued?

For the record, here's how the stack up right now...

Rodriguez - .400, 26, 14, 34, 1 (#1 overall in 5x5)
Pujols - .229, 11, 5, 12, 0 (#114 overall in 5x5)

There's no way I trade Alex Rodriguez straight up for Albert Pujols. Pujols is going to end up having a fine season, but it's really looking like Rodriguez is going to set career highs in HR, RBI, and runs. He's completely locked in, and guys like him don't "cool off". He's the best player on the planet. Will he hit .400? No. 90 HR? No. But realistically: .325 60 HR 150 RBI 135 R 20 SB; No player is worth Rodriguez one-for-one this season.

Absolutly. Especially in a keeper league. Pujols is younger. Less pressure in the STL than NY and in the end Alber will have the better numbers accross the board. Right now 1st base is less loaded than 3rd base. When it rains it Pujols!
