I'd make the trade even if you are giving up to much...

Yeah Ive got it figured that Morales wont be lasting too much longer as a closer and I've got the best out of Cantu so far and Tex will greatly out-produce him from here on out hopefully. So it comes down to trading Hamels for Tex, and I'll take that any day

Your own analysis is spot on. You are selling sky high on Cantu, selling Morales as high as possible to before street comes back and your pitching is strong enough to loose Hamels.

Grab Tex now just as April is ending and Tex should start heating up.

Yes, you do this for the reasons already mentioned. Morales won't last much longer and Cantu is a perfect sell high candidate. As the previous poster mentioned you have the pitching depth to afford the loss of Hamels, so don't wait any longer, pull that trigger now.

I've actually offered tried selling high on Cantu to get Tex, but I added Brandon Phillips into it hoping the guy would bite.

You are definitely giving up a little too much to get him but it looks like your staff can handle it.
