Aaron Rowand might be headed back to Chicago. Rowand and Floyd for Garica would be something Williams would probably bite on.

Floyd really doesn't have much in the way of value any longer. If I were Kenny I'd throw in Crede to try and get Hamels.

won't work, hamels is untouchable

I doubt untouchable is the word.

Ryan Sweeney, Crede, Vasquez and Garcia would probably get Hamels and Rowand.

No. Sweeney projects as something like Kotsay, at best, and won't be as good as Rowand for at least 2-3 years. Crede's career best OBP is .323. If you mean Carlos Vasquez, he doesn't have a lot trade value. If you mean Javier Vasquez, the Phillies are not going to invest $21M on underachieving starting pitchers (Vasquez and Garcia) - especially when Hamels will be better than both of them this year.

I read the Philly papers a lot. Howard, Utley and Hamels are the building blocks. Unless someone like Miguel Cabrera were coming back for Hamels, he wouldn't be dealt.
