Victor Robles trade?

[Redbirds Fan]

I am desperate for steals and have a chance to pick up Victor Robles in trade in my mixed 5x5. I would have to give up a $2 Nico Hoerner. Will Robles turn it around enough to make it a good deal?

Normally this would be a no-brainer, but Robles has been so cold and Nico has started so hot.

worth exactly what you pay for it, but:

HQ projects Robles ROS at $19
that said, his BA is .227 and his xBA is .209
sample size and all, but that xBA is REALLY low

Hoerner they have at ROS $4
xBA in a tiny sample size is only .239
they like him a lot better in an OBP league, which could be key

Hoerner has 243 PA of 84 OPS+
Robles has 977 PA of 88 OPS+

go figure: Hoerner is 6 days OLDER than Robles

Hoerner gives much better positional flexibility

this data doesn't give you an answer, imo, but maybe it's a start

Robles started the year hitting leadoff but has been 8th or 9th since April 14. Harder to run hitting 8th, though easier hitting 9th. I don't know that I see him getting back to the top of the order. I think I'd hope for a good week from Nico and wait for him to develop some value to a dumping team.

I have some interested in Hoerner. Let me know what you see.
