Felix Hernandez's No Trade List

[WearShades]

Didn't really say he was untouchable, just that I'd rather not trade him. And because second base is our main hole, while we have a good rotation already.

You have to calculate for position value. A starting pitcher and a center fielder are worth much, much more than a second baseman if the only discernible difference is the position they play. It's not as though a decent second baseman would help this team out more than Bjax (assuming he's as advertised) or Felix.

It even said in article reason players but NTC on the big market teams cause they know if big market teams want them they will compensate by paying them more.

The Cubs should/could have made a play for him IF they didn't trade for Garza. Now that throws any possibilty of acquiring King Felix.
