When you have a ton of holes and a guy that can bring some plugs to those holes via trade, you do it. They have some solid pitching prospects but NOTHING in the lineup. Ackley? Montero? Come on...
So you plug a hole and create a MASSIVE one in it's place, great. Not one of the Mariners pitching prospects will start the year in the majors and they have just as many hitting prospects now.
And Ackley and Montero were top 5 prospects and look where they are now. There are no guarantees with prospects, why trade a 26 year old ace with no injury problems who has professed a desire to stay for an unknown? It's silly that other fans can't see this.

The Mariners have plenty of money and Felix is their only long term cost. Having Felix on the team isn't stopping them from doing anything.

You plug holes. Plural. Felix throws ~30 games a year. The lineup sucks arse for 162. Montero and the others are still green. You won't get a team by trading Felix, but you get potential in lots of different areas.

I am worried that if the Rangers sign Hamilton to a $100 million plus deal, he is going to suck from Day 1 just like he did to end last season.
But if he signs somewhere else, he is going to regain his April/May 2012 form on Day 1.
I do think Mike Napoli will continue to be a strikeout machine like he was all September with Boston though. Red Sox are wasting their money on role players.
