Well, ANY player should be traded in the right deal.

But if the Jays are willing to move one of Hill, Adams, or Hudson I think it's likely that Hudson will bring back the best deal.

Almost any player should be traded in the right deal. But, like Vernon Wells, Hudson has more value to the Jays than to other teams. The pitching staff strikes out and walks fewer than average, and is accordingly more dependent on the defence's ability to turn balls in play into outs.

Defence and pitching are symbiotic, and I fear that the pitching will suffer if he is replaced but a much less skilled defender.

In order to receive value in return, you need to trade value. I think O-DOg has the most value, and since you are deep at middle infield, you may have to sacrifice a gold glove player in order to improve your team. I really hope they don't trade him, but if the deal is right, i think you have to.

Judging from what the players say about him, I'm starting to believe that O-Dog isn't just a fun loving, fan favorite, leader, but a key person in some of his teammates lives. Trading him could be detrimental to the team regardless of who's coming back the other way.

Forget his teammates, he's a key factor in MY life. Don't trade my favorite Jay!

Wow. Looking at the poll results it seems like we've finally hit the first issue that will evenly divide bauxites. Maybe we should trade Hudson for Milton Bradley just so we can resolve this 'chemistry' argument once and for all. For the record, I voted not to trade Hudson. Ask me again tomorrow though and my answer might be different.

Any player should be traded in the "right" deal but I don't think the O-dog would ever get a player that I would consider right. Loaded question IMO tho ;)

I'll say it too.

*Anybody* should be traded if the deal is good enough. I would support the Jays trading *me* if they got a better fan back in return.
