If Seager is a 3-4 WAR player (as he has been the last 2 years) then can you kick him to the curb while he's still cheap? 
I agree, we have some players we could stick over there if we don't want to pay Seager now and plan to move him at some point.  Romero is one. Peterson is still aimed at the position.  Franklin could be shifted there if we want to keep him (as Seager was moved off of 2B to keep him on the big-league club). Heck, Kivlehan is still a 3B potential.
If we're not gonna trade Miller (spoiler alert: we're not) and Seager has more trade value than Franklin (he undoubtedly does) then it could make a lot of sense to trade Seager instead of giving him a half-a-hundred-mil. 
But we'd better get a Kipnis-level return for him. 3-4 WAR infielders who hit a ton of XBHs are a nice commodity. 
Maybe someone will give us the corner OF we need for him. David Frees netted Peter Bourjos, and Seager is better than Frees by a not-insignificant amount.
