Cano is a LHH 2B who just went from the best park in the majors for lefty power to arguably the worst. That's going to put a major dent in his value. He's also swapping out Fenway, Camden Yards, and Sky Dome for Oakland, Anaheim, and Texas, which are, on the whole, less hitter friendly, and cumulatively, significantly so.

Trumbo is barely above a league average hitter. He provides no value outside of HR pop. Any guy who gets on base less than 30% of the time is going to be an albatross. He's also going to get switched out of a lot of games late because he's a defensive disaster in the OF.

Tulo isn't Ripken, but 120 games of him is worth far more than 160 of Trumbo
