So Chris and I were discussing this topic a couple of days back and I thought it would be interesting to get some other opinions on the topic...
First, I'm a huge fan of Mr. Stanton but that contract he signed essentially makes him impossible to trade even though there might not be a team in the majors that wouldn't love him in their line-up.
So let's take a look at some points...
He's on pace to have his best season so far and is still only 27

Still gets some hobby love but playing somewhere else may help these prices...

His contract runs through 2027 and has a bit over 260 million remaining...
So the question is, would you want your team to get him on the cheap and probably eat the last few years of that contract?
