	Not a bad trade, just a risky one for the team getting Harden. He's been awesome and healthy for a good stretch now, but if he goes down it instantly becomes a-rod for braun. Still, it's a deal I would make

	Thats a pretty fair looking trade. I like the risk reward of getting Harden.

	That's a very fair deal. Braun and Harden have to both be considered injury risks. Harden for obvious reasons and Braun because of this injured hand he has been playing with of late that has really pulled his batting average down. If healthy, I would rather have Braun and Harden....but that's a BIG if. I voted for equal.

	I voted for equal as well. I like the Braun Harden side if Harden can stay healthy. Which as we can all agree is a big if, but Harden is an ace pitcher who can shut down any offense. It's pretty equal but if Harden can stay healthy I'd take the Braun Harden side slightly over a-rod.

	Um.. It's a decent trade, but I still wouldn't give up A-Rod for Braun and Harden.. ARod is so incredibly talented, I would have to be offered more than that.. I'd want a top five pitcher with Braun.. Harden is damn good, but I'm talking Hamels, Lackey, Halladay, Webb or Beckett.. and don't take Johan.. I love the Mets but Johan is nothing special at all right now.
