Trade Manny for Crawford straight up?

For steals I have Rollins and Soriano but i feel i need more. I have Manny, Soriano, and Dunn for my power the rest are mediocre

If Dunn, Soriano, and Manny are all you have for power I wouldn't do it. Manny will get you 20+ more HR and 50+ more RBI while Crawford will steal you 50 more bases. Runs scored and average should be comparable. Steals are often times easier to find on the waiver wire than HR. Stay with Manny.

Ordinarily I would say yes because I don't trust Manny to stay healthy, but w/ two good steal guys already, you need Manny more. Dunn will hit 35-45 HR but he will bat .250 or so, dragging down your average. We know Manny will do better than that if he stays healthy. So no, not unless you can find some more power somewhere.

If you are getting Manny, do it! Epstein paid $15 million a year for Manny's inusrance bat , not just for the talent known as JD Drew. He paid that money to up Manny a notch.

Only if you need steals and have enough power hitters to make up for the loss in HR and RBIs. Of course, this is assuming you are playing with the standard 5x5 cats.
