How about we trade Hamels and Werth to the Rays for Evan Longoria. Our line-up with Taylor in the mix would be awesome.

Anyone in?

Why we people upset the Rays got rid of Kazmir? The Angels gave them 2 prospects including a 3rd basemen for him. Kazmir is done!

Maybe the trade to the Rays would be Victorino and Happ and something else for Longoria.

I think Vic gets arb this year, but he should be generally affordable. Happ makes pocket change.

TB may trade Longoria eventually, but it will be for prospects, I would think.

You don't trade Hamels after a bad year. If you trade someone, it's Happ.

Happ's stats for 2009 show him to be a better pitcher than he really is. This guy is a middle rotation pitcher but given his cheap salary and impressive rookie year we might be able to get a very good player in return.

Longoria is signed to a long-term, club friendly contract that buys out his arbitration years and has four more years to run. He is as about untouchable as players get.
