Trading Uggla for... who? WHIR!

[jeffkoz12]

Trying to get rid of Uggla and get something decent in return (more SB, stronger OF).

Which of the following players are good trades for me that won't get laughed at:

CarGo
Hunter Pence
Adrian Beltre
Andrew McCutchen
Clayton Kershaw
Matt Garza

...or should I package Uggla with someone else (e.g., Chris Carpenter, Jake Peavy, Jurrjens) and aim for the stars? WHIR!

I think you could conceivably get either Pence or Kershaw...although the latter might depend on team needs. I always say give it a shot. Who cares if people laugh?

Ended up with what I see as a solid trade:

Gave - Uggla, Vlad, and Peavy
Got - McCutchen, Kelly Johnson

I have Prado at 2B, and was looking for ways to get rid of Vlad and Peavy. I'll give Kelly Johnson a week or two on the bench to turn it around. Also frees up a roster spot to stream hot hitters or pitchers.
