Alteas -> What do you think we could get for Blackmon in a trade?  I honestly don't think any team would give anything before a 5th round pick in exchange.  If we could get a 1-2-3 round pick (or potentially a high 4th), sure I'd trade him.  If it's only  a 5-6-7 round pick, I'd take the risk of keeping him with the potential high reward payoff.

 

Chris Carter got a 2nd chance and it paid off.  Most don't payoff though.
