Thing is that Hallady pitches what 34-35 games a year, and he's had injury issues. Wells is that every day player that fans can go to the park and watch every day.
Depending on what Wells trade value is, I would entertain the notion of moving him. For all intensive purposes I think Thomas can replace some of the offensive loss right now. Rios can move over to centre and play similar defence and still put up decent numbers. Really if you could get a decent left handed hitting outfielder, and a some pitching help they should likely make the move.
A lineup of
Johnson
Rios
Overbay
Thomas
Glaus
Stairs
Hill
Zaun
Clayton
Would still put up a fair amount of Runs. Moreso if a good Left handed hitter can be acquired for Wells. So if you can get a guy who can pitch for you this year and a good prospect too it would be tempting.
