Fantasy baseball: Would you trade Juan Pierre for Cliff Floyd

[Argo]

I can't find any information on Pierre. Is his lack of stolen bases due to an injury, or is he not running much this year? Any Marlin fans can help out? Floyd has great season so far, but with him you're always afraid of fading/injury.

Pierre is in a nasty hitting slump that's preventing him from getting on base enough to steal bases.

Never trade your players at their lowest value. Floyd is always a tweak away from the DL anyway.

Trade your players when they are overachieving, hold them when they are sucking (put them on the bench/reserves). It's contra to your reactions, but it's the smart thing to do.

yeah.. I wouldnt trade a player mired in a slump, his value would be too low. Remember...you cant spell FLoyD without DL.

no way....Floyd is average at best......

He IS having quite a year so far this year...sO I can understand the intrest in him by the OP.

Pierre is has gotten caught too many times recently I believe. His projected SB's is still around 40, but that's far from the 60 that was expected during pre-season.

Pierre hurt his calf in the pre-season. It'll probably take a little longer before he's comfortable enough to get some solid SBs.
