I would not do that trade. Michael Bourn is a one trick pony; he can steal bases, but unfortunately, he can't get on base enough to make him a valuable fantasty player. David Price has been a bust this year, and Edwin Jackson is definitely a better pitcher now. Plus, Joey Votto is just as strong a hitter as Adrian Gonzales, and he hits in a more conducive ballpark for the long ball. I'd stay with the people already on your team.
david price and micheal born aren't setting the world on fire but adrian gonzalez is just ripping the ball right now.
edwin jackson will be a big loss but joey votto (even though he has been a steady hitter so far) is nowhere near the stats you'll be piling up with gonzalez
If your looking for more HR's, SB and already have good pitching I would say pull the trigger. Votto is hitting for good avg this year but Adrian and Bourn are very good in their respected areas. Only reason I would decline this deal is if Jackson is one of your 1 or 2 best pitchers.
yes even though david is horrible this year, u r having the better end of the deal getting a great power hitter and fast guy and u r giving up a okay pitcher and hitter
