A guy with low BA and high OBP could be slow or fast, strong or weak, a good fielder or a bad one, be able to play SS, C or CF, or be a DH. So, it's not that simple. Today, BA is around .248 and OBP is around .318. If I change them by 5% (up and down), I get one guy who is .235 / .334 and another guy at .261 / .302. If the latter has a lot more speed and power, and can play CF, and the former is a slow DH, I'll take high BA and low OBP.

As a rule, I go with whichever player gives me the best chance of winning regardless.
