Yeah, but I would hope they can at least include a prospect or project
player in the deal.

He has 4 years remaining on his deal I just saw, so he probably isn't
high on Walsh's list, but one thing to consider, he is coming off a
pretty bad season so his value isn't as it's peak and he has just
started a new contract. Those are things that could make him
unattractive to other teams. He might be worth more than Randolph and
Lee, but there probably are not going to be a lot of teams lining up
for his services.
