Pujols. A-Rod. You can't say that this is one of those times where "pitching matters most". Braun has been so ridiculously successful, and has, at times, carried this team. I would only trade him for the two above players, and right now, to be honest, I'm even debating Pujols. In no way am I trading Braun for a combination of Chase Utley and Jimmy Rollins, or Jimmy Rollins and Cole Hamels. That's terrible. Braun is the closest thing I have seen to untouchable since Brett Favre back in 1996. There shouldn't even be a thread about this, since there is nothing of fair value we could get for him right now.
