I was offered Mark Texierra in exchange for Carl Crawford in a 4 X 4 standard 12 team league. I already have Ichiro and Reyes for steal and need homers and RBI's. I am inclined to accept but thought I would solicite some expert advice first.

Thoughts?

That isn't enough.
Never lose the best guy in the trade.

It makes perfect sense to me. Teix is batting cleanup, gets more HRs and more RBIs. You don't need the steals. Only issue I would see is whether it makes sense based on position. Do you have a place to play Teix and who will you play in the OF for Crawford. If it is simply a matter of keeping everyone else the same in your lineup then it makes sense to me and I would do it.
