Impressive lineup, but I'd probably go Q, Gonzalez, Konerko, Teahen, Jones, 3-7. As you said getting Pierre on the bench is key. It's the easiest solvable problem they have. If you think Quentin, Beckham, and to a lesser degree Ramirez and AJ are going to hit and Peavy and Floyd are front of the rotation pitchers you deal for Gonzalez.
Yes, because we'd trade the cheap locked up guy and the Padres would want Peavy's contract back, which they shipped to us for peanuts to get rid of.

I know Paulie seems to be a great guy for the organization (didn't he say he would take a pay cut if it would help the team?), but will he be the type of guy that will take a 'play cut' ie move to DH? I know Dye is adamantly against move to DH; is it likely that Paulie is ready to take on that role?
Paulie would do it, because unlike JD, Paulie could still play the field once or twice a week and not suck.
