The foremost reason for this post is to gauge the respective values of Brandon Boggs and Trevor Crowe. So, like John's Crystal Ball projections, please don't take the trade proposal all too seriously. It's just a hypothetical scenario, the purpose of which is to measure people's perceptions of the players, organizational needs, etc.

So, Would trading Brandon Boggs for Trevor Crowe be a fair deal? Both have been described as fourth-outfielder types. And both are playing for teams that have a lot of competition at their respective positions. Crowe is a natural center fielder, and will likely have to prove himself there to maintain a big-league career. The Indians have plenty of depth in CF with Grady Sizemore, Shin-Soo Choo, and Michael Brantley. Boggs has power potential though he has pretty much been relegated to left field. The Rangers, however, currently have David Murphy and Nelson Cruz at the outfield corners, while Marlon Byrd will most likely be departing via free agency.

So, What are your thoughts on the balance of this trade proposal?
