Obviously you'd much rather trade Scuderi. But I'm kind of thinking that's nearly impossible, at this point. I haven't exactly determined that it's impossible because his value is in the toilet and literally nobody wants him for anything or because the team has this unwavering faith in him and his ability to bounce back into form... whatever form that is.
Kunitz makes sense as a trade candidate because the team needs some wiggle room (if not now than certainly soon) and he's most certainly on the decline at 36 years old. But he also still has enough value that the team likely doesn't have to move the moon and stars to get something done.
I don't think Kunitz is quite to the point where he's going to play all 70-80 games of the season, or whatever, like he did the last half of last season. But neither do I think the team should really bend over backwards to hold on to him if there are deals to be made out there. I simply don't see him as a critical element to the team's success, anymore.
