That's poor value. My idea allows the Cardinals to rest Holliday, Craig, and Freese, none of whom are pictures of health, while never sabotaging the lineup with a Shane Robinson or Ty Wigginton to do so. Furthermore, you aren't Profaring Wong in this example.
Freese will play all the time. Holliday will play all the time. No way Matheny cuts back their playing time. Surely we can get a better RH bat off the bench this off season.

I'm 100% down with trading Wong. I get it. But it's nice to have seven above average-great ML hitters for six spots than six, especially when you can parcel out ABs like that.
You know the market and other teams way better than myself.

Is there any SS's out there worth trading our top guys for? And if so who and what would it take?
