July 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(aboz56 @ Jul 29, 2005 -> 09:58 PM) No one is untouchable in the right deal. Agreed. My order, however, of guys I'd least like to see traded: 1. Anderson 2. Valido 3. Young 4. Liotta 5. Haigwood (I'm sure I'm the only person who'd have him in their top 5) Also, if it came down to Fields or Schnurstein, I'd keep the Schnur. Fields may be a little better of a prospect, but he'd account for a lot more in a trade, imo. So I'd rather trade him as a part of a big time trade than say Schnur and someone else, like Haigwood. Also, a player has to be 1 year removed from being drafted to be traded. Therefore, Mr. Broadway can't be trade bait until next year's deadline.
July 30, 200520 yr The only 2 guys I think are absolutely untouchable are Jenks and Young. Other than that there a bunch of guys Id wouldnt want dealt in a deal for an avg. player but if it involved like a Burnett type player it would be fine.
July 31, 200520 yr Jenks = UN-f***ING-TOUCHABLE Everyone else....bye bye although I would prefer to add Young and Gio to that list seen above. Edited July 31, 200520 yr by SoxFan1

Wow A.J. Burnett, that's high standards LOL. :rolly Kenny isn't giving these guys away. He's going to at least get a Burnett or better if he's dealing any top tier prospects.
