Here are the questions you need to ask yourself...

1) Who does Cesar Hernandez replace and how does that affect my lineup's potential to score points?

2) How much will Pete Fairbanks help my lineup when (if?) he returns.

3) If I add Nicky Lopez, how does that change #1?

If overall, the trade improves your team's chances to achieve points, it's a good deal.

FWIW - I am a Cesar Hernandez fan, but admit my expectations could be a little overly optimistic. That said, he is not as bad as his early numbers indicate.
