This is a chance for posters to list the names of the players currently on the team that should be (if at all possible and for a good return), not necessarily "will be", traded.

Naturally, some may not want anyone to be dealt, so they can either refrain from posting, or go ahead and share their thoughts.

My list is as follows:

Adam Jones
JJ Hardy
Nick Markakis
Mark Reynolds
Jeremy Guthrie
Jim Johnson
Kevin Gregg

I would trade Guthrie and Gregg because I can't stand to watch either of them try to pitch. It's like watching Charlie Brown trying to kick the football. (Some day, I hope somebody invents a baseball statistic that measures the 'cringe factor' that each player induces in the fans who have to watch them play.)

Jones, Johnson and Guthrie.

If you can find value and/or a taker for guys like Andino and Gregg, trade them too.

Reynolds is someone I would deal but not for the hell of it.

I probably hold onto Nick because I don't see his contract as the big deal many do and there are reasons to believe that he could bounce back a lot and increase his value.

Would you trade Johnson for a Andrew Bailey-like package?

Yes, I would Chaos.

Johnson is a guy we should be selling high on.

Consider offers on Guthrie, Jones, and Johnson right now. Likely hold on to Jones, but move the other two.

If in July we're still sucking and, more specifically, the young pitchers have continued to look hopeless, then trade everyone with value except for Wieters and any of the young pitchers that do happen to be pitching well.

I would strongly consider trading any of them. It obviously depends on the possible returns.

Jones and Guthrie would be the guys I'd be most aggressive in dealing.
