Because at some point, you have to have players play for your team. Glencross won't be a flame in a matter of weeks. Trading him provides something to the team long after he's gone.

You've got a jug of milk that is about to expire. You can try to sell it at the same price as milk that isn't going to expire, you can cut the price to encourage someone to buy your about-to-expire milk or you can hold onto it and hope it turns into sour cream.

Personally, I would sell the milk, even for a reduced cost, in order to create a spot on my retail shelf for another milk product. I'd use the money I made from the soon-to-be-expired milk to buy more milk that wasn't as close to expiring.

Maybe I originally bought the milk for more than I'll end up selling it for, but at least I got something for it and I'm not having to go out and buy replacement milk for an even greater cost.
Or do the obvious and drink it. Or make a cookie.
