Cano vs. Ichiro

29 01 2008

Tough call to make in the coming weeks.

I recently acquired Robinson Cano for next to nothing (his owner wasn’t keeping him anyway).

Being that I already have 2 other OF among my 5 keepers (CBY and Markakis), I am thinking about keeping Cano over Ichiro.  Obviously I lose a lot in the SB dept., but Cano should hit for a very good avg., hit more homers and drive in more runs than Ichiro, and will give me better roster flexibility going into the draft.

I’d love to hear what my loyal readers think.
