Trade Trout for Harper+?

Question

Hi All,

 What do you think about my trading away Trout ($6 for 4 years) to get Harper ($6 for 4 years) plus Y. Alonso ($1 for 3 years) and Hughes ($1 for 1 year).

 My league uses RF/CF/LF, and the offensive categories are BA, HR, R, RBI, SB, BB and 2D3T.

 Is Harper's upside worth the chance that Trout's BABIP will come down, or should I just hold onto Trout?

 Alonso's value might be a bit higher with a) Petco's new fences, and b) BB's and doubles counted, right? Or is he still too far from the top 12/14 first basemen to be a factor?

 Thanks!

Answer 1

I think I might pull the trigger on that deal. Harper on his own could be more valuable than Trout in a couple of years. Plus you get Alonso on the cheap.
