Why does BP's little blowup at C. Trent make him suddenly expendable?
I'll grant that his contract is not ideal, but that was true before this little episode.

So, you're asking if the club should get rid of an All Star, gold glove winning, second baseman... coincidentally after he yelled at guy that used to post here?
This thread...I don't even know what to say about it.

Angels offer Trout for BP, who here doesn't do that trade?
If the answer is "of course you make that trade" then yes, you would consider trading BP. For the right deal.

By the way, it'll take a lot for me to trade my mom.
Can we trade the guys covering the reds instead of the players?
"Even a bad day at the ballpark beats the snot out of most other good days. I'll take my scorecard and pencil and beer and hot dog and rage at the dips and cheer at the highs, but I'm not ever going to stop loving this game and this team and nobody will ever take that away from me." Roy Tucker October 2010
No one is off limits for the right deal. The question is could we get good value for BP given his contract etc ... its not likely.
Ummmmmm, where is this thread coming from? Are some suggesting that one outburst calling someone fat will lead to BP's departure?
I'd trade him for Max Scherzer.
Dubito Ergo Cogito Ergo Sum.
or Jose Fernandez, I'd do that deal. How about Verlander. value is an all time low.
Point is, the guy JUST signed a long term contract. He ain't going anywhere. He's got some flaws in his game. He's also one of the better defenders, has pop and a knack for driving in runners.
