	Team A a little because AJ is of no value. Berkman is still good, but coming back to earth now. Mauer is a very good catcher who doesn't translate to big fantasy numbers. If Felix ever strings together a few of his real good starts the trade could be close to even. He is usually more queen Felix than king Felix.

	Yeah I'd have to say the team getting Alex Rodriguez and Justin Morneau is the winning side here. Both seem like they are going to have monster second halves (Rodriguez especially). As don61111 stated, Lance Berkman is starting to cool down a little bit (finally) and King Felix Hernandez is nice, but he's not going to get the run support for many W's in Seattle.

	Team A wins because Arod and AJ for Berkman and Mauer is even. I don't think Berkman will sustain his pace and Arod will heat up. So essentially its Lowell for Morneau. That is not even close. Also, team B get s Morrow but it has to drop a closer. Is Morrow that much better? What happens when Putz gets back? Team B gets nothing on the closer piece. I want to be in your league!
