I wouldn't take this deal. Ohka is a mediocre pitcher that doesn't help you, and Fiorentino is waiver wire material. Conroy will never be more than a so-so backup and a decent platoon against lefties - he'll never be a quality starter for a team that wants to contend in the future. Adding in a 2nd and 3rd rounder that will be at the very end of the rounds doesn't help that much, either, considering what you'd give up - Balaz is a solid but soon to decline hitter, while Scutaro will still be fully productive for several more years and Halama (albeit with low control) is still a pretty solid pitcher with many productive years.

The players you're trading aren't exactly superstars either, but I think you should be able to do better than what you're being offered here. If you're going to rebuild, you should be looking to get much younger anyway.

Don't take it. Maybe trade your guys but for younger and better.
