I don't think you're trolling but I will disagree. You don't trade good players because another good player plays his position. It's not MLB where you get say 2 legit prospects for a player of RA's caliber. We might get some depth or even a 1st round pick but that 1st round pick might mean very little. It's not the NFL where a 1st round pick is extremely valuable. Everyone likes to wonder why we drafted AR at 10 but look at what came after 10. A lot of those guys have been in the D-League or you haven't heard from them. Hell, look at some of the picks before AR.

It's simply on Monty to get his rotations straight and find a way to get the most out of both guys. Like you said, he's young, his contract is great, and we aren't in need of cap room.

Agree. Trading Anderson is a desperation move with little payoff.

Trade i have in mind would be for a talent to talent type trade. Not trading him for hopes and dreams of draft picks. We trade him for a full time talented 3 that can start for us or an equally talented 5 or whatever it'd be.
