You guys are misreading my question. I am not arguing against making a trade or that he wouldnt be a huge upgrade at a position of need or that we dont have the spare pieces.  We have to consolidate some WAR into fewer players like the Fister trade in reverse :(.  My question was simply how good is Stanton really (ie is he really as good as everyone says he is, what are his comps etc)? He gets talked about like he's a generational talent. If he walked more I could see that- though he's young and can develop discipline.  
OTOH, if he is that good, then he's easily more valuable than Felix- without taking dollars into account. Less risky too. When you adjust for dollars... Why would that player ever be available? It reminds me of all the east coast talk the last few years about how the Ms should trade Felix. You know, all of the talk that we would ridicule as crazy?  I understand Loria is different, but...
