If Hafner was eligable at another position (other than Util), I would consider it more. If you need HR power THAT BAD.. it may work out. Rollins wont be a HR threat, even though he's off to a hot start.
Lowry may be the better pitcher of the two. It just depends on what you need. I like Rollins for his avg, SB's, and consistancy. I honestly dont care for Tejada... never have. It's a fairly even trade, but I think I wouldn't do unless I absolutely needed Hafner on my team... his position eligibility ties but a spot on a daily basis. He'll get you 30+ HR's this year though.
How does your team look?

If I were you, I'd take this trade. Hafner is a much better fantasy option than Inge.
If you plan to keep a guy like Torii Hunter on your bench, you'd be better off not making the deal. Other than Rollins, he's the guy on your team that's playing the best right now. He should be playing ahead of Jones or Cruz. Actually, I'd also play Monroe over Cruz and Jones...
Matt Cain will probably be better than Noah Lowry, but we're talking about over the course of a career. They're pretty much the same fantasy option at this point.

Looking at your team, I'd say take the deal as well....you get an above average player in return at SS in Tejada, a monster masher in Hafner in which IMO, you definitely could use the offensive help, and like BlackOps said, both Cain and Lowery are pretty much the same fantasy wise at this point with Lowery getting more wins as he pitches against the opposing teams shitty starters. A good deal for you IMO.

Thanks TRD (but obviously you would say it was fair and must take it lol) Well, it was an even trade....trust me, I know who I can and cannot rip off. I'm just trying to move one of my power hitters for some speed, and was willing to give you an above average replacement at SS in Tejada, and a masher in Hafner for J-Roll.

It's an even trade... you'll hurt a bit in the SB cat with only Hunter and Cabrera.. but it just depends if you can live with Hafner tieing up your Util spot every day.

Tejada's power numbers have been and are continuing to slip. He had 34 HRs his first year in Balt with 40 doubles. Year 2 those numbers dropped to 26/50. Last year they were 24/37 and this year he's hit just 2 HRs and 6 doubles.
Dont be fooled into thinking Tejada is a top SS anymore. He's not. He's just a good one now.
