I would also point out that trading a guy like Morales right now proves that fans don't always understand the human aspect of player development. Let's be honest, if you are a free agent, and you see a team that is willing to trade a player less than 2 weeks after signing that player, the person is going to be incredibly leery of that team. I know it is hard for us to always thing of the players as more than a commodity, but in building a long term brand, it MUST be considered.
