:- ) Actually, dealing Felix could have some logic for me, with two caveats:
(1) You'd have to find a way to do it consistent with the Stars & Scrubs paradigm - verrrrry tough to do.
It's no good to just trade him for 4 above-average players, since each above-average player then nukes the value of a player like Mike Carp, Justin Smoak, or whoever...
IMHO you'd need a 6+ WAR type player coming back, plus goodies.
(2) You've got to factor in the Franchise Icon aspect, don't  you?  Shouldn't Roger Clemens have been a Red Sox forever?
...........
Problem #1 also applies w/r/t Pineda, although in that case you were talking about Joey Votto replacing him as the #2 player on the roster, so that doesn't violate S&S...
