I don't like player A but he and B both had 3.5 WAR. So the question is does player A have more upside to tap into, given he is 24? Player A, if he could get more aggressive with the steals could probably have more value there too.

I'd also want to know the BABIP for A/B. Player A has a massive K rate especially compared to player B. Can player A sustain the 264 BA? If not, and he isn't going to improve, then player B is better. Player A has more ISO as well so if he can sustain the 260 BA he's definitely the better option.

There isn't enough evidence here to say whether A/B is better, IMO. I'd also want to know how they did vs RHP - if one guy is clearly better vs RHP, I'd use him and platoon that guy.
