Trade Liriano? It isn't just crazy talk

Liriano, 27, can become a free agent after the 2012 season.  He might never have a higher trade value.   The Twins don't plan to sign him long term. They avoided arbitration with a one-year, $4.3 million deal.  He had Tommy John elbow surgery in 2006 and he still has a violent delivery.  Twins seem content to maximize his current value.  They can have him for about 65 starts over the next two years and get two draft picks if he leaves as a free agent.  Liriano might seem like the closest thing the Twins have to a true No. 1 pitcher.  I belive that they should not trade liriano.
