I wish I could find it, but I read, or heard, that Donaldson was looking for a contract that took him to age 38 or 39 because he believes that he will still be a good hitter. IF that is true then it is time to trade him.

I mean sure, he could be a good hitter still, but so very few players maintain that ability past 35 that you have to play the odds. For every Nelson Cruz, there are 100's of Bautista's.
