I've been trying to trade for Mariano for over two weeks and actually got a trade approved...

I think the trade is OK. If we're talking about which team improved its core scoring starters, BL wins this one because he essentially gave up his back-up (a great back-up, but a back-up nonetheless) to get a great reliever.
BAM obviously improves at 2B. How this trade affects the league comes down to: - How much did BAM lose at RP to gain the improvement at 2B - How much did BL improve at RP vs. his loss of points at 2B/Util
