Seeing how the Padres have a lot of players returning next year and fewer glaring holes, I really don't see them moving Gonzalez. The smarter move would be to hold on to him and if were out of it again by the deadline, then trade him to a desperate team.
Also, to correct the article, along with messing up A Gon's stats, he also messed up the state of the franchise. There payroll is to increase from the 21 mil it was at the end of last year to 40+ mil in 2010. Given that were set to increase payroll be 19 million, trading the most affordable super star in the game makes no sense. I guess we'll have to see.
