Would you trade Buchholz for Gordon?

Would you trade Clay Buchholz for Alex Gordon if you were me?

I'm not sure if Gordon is much of an upgrade over McGehee. But he may be better than my bench or utility guys.

you dont need gordon at all. he would just sit on your bench. so i say dont do the deal because he would be useless for you

I disagree

I would do the deal as your bench of starters is solid, and with Halladay, Weaver and Marcum, you are set with 3 excellent SPs. Plus, with Wandy and Kennedy on your bench, they could put up similar or better stats than Buchholz.

No Brainer

I do this deal because you are getting the better player, no matter what. And Gordon is an upgrade over both Smoak and Hosmer at this point, so you would start him at UTIL.
