I don't like this deal -- I like El Leche's youth and potential. He may only hit 8 HR's a year, but in previous years was batting in the .280 range (Cameron is a career .250 hitter), though like Cameron Melky wasn't great with RISP. I don't know anything about Austin Jackson, but what if he isn't ready for 2010? Or a bust in 2010? At least Melky has room to grow -- he wasn't that bad... he had a .986-1.000 fielding percentage at CF while with the Yanks -- no worse than Cameron.

Besides HR's & RBI's, their stats aren't that different. Is giving up youth and salary for 1 year worth it? I don't know...
