You dont just trade Helton just to trade him. If someone is stupid and wants to give up the farm, then you do it. But you dont go trade him for a couple of AA pitchers. That will just feed into our owners hands of no commitment to win. He has some game left, contrary to popular belief.

I think the reason the Power numbers are down is because he is playing a role this season. He isnt hacking at everything. Look at his BB/9 innings. They are ridiculous.

But this not-want-to-pay-him arguement doesnt work for me. Our owners have money, and they refuse to spend it. If we traded Helton we would become the Royals, with better players. Our payroll would be 40 million next season and it would be an embarassment.

What, do you think that with these owners, if we move Helton they are going to reinvest Helton's contract back to the team?!?!? HAHAHA! Yeah. We would have an easier time trying to investigate the Kennedy Asassination then trying to figure out where our Majority Owner's payroll would be next season.
