Draft and Trade Talk Message Board

Dexter Fowler 4 Matt Weiters
I would be getting Fowler. I have Stubbs as my CF and already have Carlos Santana as my catcher....
-
If Fowler ever breaks out, he will be awesome, but it might be a long wait. Probably an upgrade over Stubbs right away, though.
-
Fowler's numbers certianly improved this year. Considering you have Santana this seems like a decent trade for you.
-
I wouldn't do it. You've got two of the better catchers in the league. Somebody is going to place more stock in Weiters down the line and could offer you more than Fowler.
At least shop him first and see what he's worth to other teams.- 1 Reply to Wes

Depending on rosters, catchers are hard to come by, ya can always trade Wieters later.
I known Fowler for years & he will never be keeper material or past a top 70 player in my opinion.
I think you can do better for Wieters.
-
Make the deal. Fowler will have a break out year finally.
-
Don't do it. Catcher is a premium position and Weiters has good power. Everyone has been waiting for Fowler to break out for years now and although he had a better season (#'s improving all around), Rockie players can't hit outside of the Mile High city.
-
Fair enough, though I would take Weiters.
