I am firmly in the camp of saying no to no-trade clauses. I think they are never a smart idea for the team giving them (see: Lohse, Kyle) and generally are only a way for players to either a) be able to guarantee they can finish their career in one place (certainly understandable), b) add another feather in the cap of their contract/agent, or c) be able to grab at more money later by demanding to be bought out of said clause or hold up the new team for a contract extension (inevitably with another no-trade clause).
