That's a lot of players! 8-o I think this trade involves TOO MANY big players to pull off. As for looking into the trade itself, I'm not sure I like this for you. Howard isn't as consistent as Morneau, but he tend to dominate in the second half. Kinsler and Utley are by far the two best 2B, and you're not getting a replacement. I like Billingsley a lot and Bedard has done well for the most part so far too, so the trade would improve your pitching (even though Felix is pretty good himself). Sizemore and Beltran obviously help the OF, your UTL would need to be somebody like Loney.

Again, it helps in some areas and hurts in others. IMO, there are too many big players here to make such a trade. I probably keep your side because I don't know how you plan to replace Kinsler if you trade him. Figgins is ok at 3B and I'm unsure if Scutaro is going to continue hitting this well all year.
