MONTERO FOR KING FELIX? HELL NO!!!!

Some people now believe talks between the Yankees and the Mariners may be revived now that Jesus Montero has shown that he can produce in the big leagues. If I'm the Yankees, and the Mariners ask for Jesus Montero in return for Felix Hernandez, I would say "you can have Nunez, you can have Romine, you can even have Betances and Banuelos, but you can't have Montero." 

Not only is Montero possibly the next Yankees superstar, but I don't see how much better they would be giving him up but having Felix Hernandez than they would having a guy like CJ Wilson, who will only cost money. Yes, Hernandez is better, but not by so much that you would be compelled to deal Montero. Some may even argue that CJ Wilson is better at the moment. Wilson is 16-7 with an ERA of 2.97 and 206 strike outs. Hernandez, on the other hand has not exactly been his Cy Young self, as he has gone 14-14 not to mention the fact that his ERA went from 2.27 to 3.47.
