I would . Ortiz is not the dominant offensive player he once was. I think in over all offensive production Rasmus will do better. I think Rasmus will get more infield hits and nore doubles than David and probably score more runs. Ortiz still has home run power. I would trade power for points . which is what Rasmis will give you.
Tough one, David's play last year wasn't the greatest. Both players this spring are doing about the same with Rasmus getting more at bats and his SLG Percentage is a little higher. David is basically playing DH this year.
I figure a toss up, with David having a edge in homers I perdict

Would you trade David Ortiz for Colby Rasmus?

I did it. Rasmus has a power upside and the main reason I did it was he's hitting in front of Pujols.
Ortiz will also be sitting vs lefties.
